Pyrea or periodontitis, is the severe form of gum disease. It is caused by poor oral hygiene, smoking and sometimes by pregnancy.
Dental plaque is the major cause of periodontitis. Persistent infection of the gum margins leads to progressive inflammation and destruction of the supporting tissues by bacterial toxins and enzymes. Extension and the hardening of plaque leads to formation of tartar beneath the gums. Having tartar within the gum pockets can lead to periodontitis. It forms a reservoir of bacteria which help to keep inflammation and acts as a barrier to healing. The following risk factors can increase the chances of having periodontitis:Risk factors for periodontal diseaseLocal factorsAlignment and the bite relationship of teethFaulty fillings of teethMouth breathingDentures or bracesSmokingSystemic factorsDiabetes mellitusPregnancyNutrition deficiencyBlood diseasesDrugsHIV infectionhttp://www.intelligentdental.com/2009/12/11/chronic-adult-periodontitis-cause-and-symptoms/
