Periodontal disease is an inflammation of gingival, cementum, periodontal ligament, or alveolar bone that indicates a bone loss. It could cause by bacterial infection, periodontitis, or an accumulation of plaque.

During puberty, pregnancy and menopause women need to take special care of themselves and seek advice throughout each stage of life from their doctor as well as their dentist. Hormonal fluctuations in a woman’s body affect a variety of tissues, including gum tissue, which increases susceptibility to periodontal dis­ease.
