Left untreated, a gum infection will invariably escalate to a serious, painful condition that may even require dental surgery.Periodontitis is the medical name for diseases that attack the soft tissue and bones supporting the teeth and jaw. The initial stage manifests itself as gingivitis, an inflammation of the gums caused by a build-up of bacteria-laden plaque and tartar on the surface of teeth near the gum line.
