Gum disease is common and unpleasant, but, according to a growing body of evidence, it could also play a role in a surprising range of seemingly unrelated health problems.  

Plaque — a sticky substance that contains bacteria — builds up on teeth. If it is not brushed away, the bacteria can irritate the gums. The gums may then become swollen, sore, or infected; this is referred to as gingivitis. In general, gum disease can be treated or prevented by maintaining a good oral health regime. However, if it is left to develop, it can result in periodontitis, which weakens the supporting structures of the teeth. To read the full article in MedicalNewsToday click here

Periodontitis, or gum disease, is a common infection that damages the soft tissue and bone supporting the tooth. Without treatment, the alveolar bone around the teeth is slowly and progressively lost. The name "periodontitis" means "means inflammation around the tooth." Microorganisms, such as bacteria, stick to the surface of the tooth and in the pockets surrounding the tooth, and they multiply. As the immune system reacts and toxins are released, inflammation occurs. Untreated periodontitis will eventually result in tooth loss. It may increase the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other health problems. Bacterial plaque, a sticky, colorless membrane that develops over the surface of teeth, is the most common cause of periodontal disease. If plaque it not removed, it can harden to form tartar, or calculus. Most cases of periodontitis are preventable through good dental hygiene.

Non-Surgical Treatment for Forehead Augmentation

The forehead is an important facial feature that is often neglected. From an aesthetic perspective, a high and rounded forehead helps to give a good balance to the rest of your overall facial features. Forehead augmentation used to be done by plastic surgeons. However in recent years, the development of medical aesthetics has made it possible to do forehead augmentation non-surgically. Forehead augmentation with dermal fillers is not as invasive or as dramatic as surgery, and also not permanent. It is a better and safer choice for people who are unsure about undergoing surgery. 

In the case presented here, Dr Massoudi has used 2mls of Texoane RHA3 to augment the forehead. The results are subtle, yet noticeable and can last between 8 to 12 months. At BrightSmile Clinic we understand your facial aesthetic concerns and offer free consultation sessions to discuss these with you.
