No, the bacteria cycles every 60 to 90 days and once you have it you have to diligently floss and brush to keep your perio controlled. It is also communicable. You can pass the bacteria to your partner from kissing. You can give your partner periodontal disease.
Periodontal disease is treatable—especially when caught early, but advanced stages require specialized care. At Periodontal and Implant Surgeons of Houston, our board-certified experts use advanced therapies, including laser treatment and deep cleanings, to stop progression and restore gum health. Timely treatment is key to preventing tooth loss and preserving long-term oral health.

Periodontal is a gum disease. Bacteria build up on the gums where the gums are attached to the tooth. It can be seen as a thick sticky layer which becomes a part of the tooth but different in color. It ruins the smile and harm your tooth and gums very much. It is a result of bad oral hygiene, not properly brushing and flossing the teeth.
Left untreated, periodontal disease results in the destruction of the gums, alveolar bone (the part of the jaws where the teeth arise), and the outer layer of the tooth root
