A. Gum Disease: • Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is an infection of gums surrounding the teeth.

If you already have gum disease then you need to see a dentist in order to get treatment and prevent further complications.
B. Tooth decay: • Tooth decay, popularly known as cavities, occurs when you eat sugar or starches that form a sticky film of bacteria on the surface of your teeth. This film is called plaque.
