#wellnesswednesday Smoking increases the inflammatory reaction, lowers your immune system, and increases pathogenic bacteria in your mouth. This triple threat means smokers are more likely to have severe gum disease and more likely to lose teeth to gum disease.

We get it, it's WAY easier to blame someone (or something) else. In the case of gum disease, poor oral hygiene and tobacco use are two of the biggest causes AND something in our own control. #BlameSomeoneElseDay

#ThursdayThoughts 85% of US adults have some form of gum disease, making it one of the most common diseases in America - more common than cancer, diabetes, arthritis, or heart disease. It's easy to overlook, gum disease doesn't have overt symptoms until advanced stages!
