Gingivitis Information Helps Sharlene - Video







Being skeptical is normal.  I am certainly glad that Sharlene took the time to share her success with this information.  

I would love to have more people read my book(s).  I know people will benefit.   This is such a widespread problem and very few people know they actually have it.   

There even appear to be people that have lost teeth and have had implants or dentures installed and still don't know that they lost their teeth due to gum disease.    How sad is that?   Very sad if you ask me.  

Dental pros tell us that it is about 75% of people.  Why doesn't that alarm people?   Does anyone stop to think the odds are NOT in their favor?     What are the chances you don't have this problem?   

This is the problem in a nutshell: People are not told and they don't know.    There are specific questions you should ask your hygienist or dentist.   

1. Can you take and tell me the periodontal pocket depths readings around every tooth?  
-generally speaking 3mm and below are considered healthy. Above that max is generally considered unhealthy.  You doc will tell you for sure.

2.  Do I have some gum disease?   Simple and direct.  That should get them to speak up if they have been ignoring it.     Gingivitis is really just another stage of the same disease process.  Basically, gingivitis is the beginning.

Do You Have Gum Disease?

I am going to assume that if you are reading this you already know you have gum disease.   After all, why would someone bother to read this if they did not, right?

The sad reality is that MOST people have gum disease.  Dental health professionals tell us that about 75% of people have some right now.   That's 3 out of every 4.

Therefore, if you know you have gum disease, you are not alone.  It's just that most of the other people that have it don't know yet!   They probably won't find out until a tooth becomes loose or it is time for an expensive treatment or surgery.

In a way, you can be glad that you know you have it, because now you can start to do something about it.  Many other people aren't going to find out until things get bad, unfortunately.  That's just the way it seems to work.


One Possible Way To Solve This Problem

Anyone who says they have something that will work 100% of the time for 100% of the people is lying.  You can't trust someone like that.

But, I do know of something that has helped a lot of people.  The best part about it is that you can have your dentist verify your results.

How To Know When It Works

This is the fun part because it is more objective than subjective.   You just need to know your periodontal pocket depths.   This is a measurement that your dentist or hygienist will take around each tooth.

Generally speaking, most dental professionals will say your gums are healthy at 3mm and below and unhealthy at above that mark.   Therefore, you will know your gums are back to a more healthy state when you get all of those readings to 3mm and below.

How To Give This A Shot

The device that I have personally experience with, and thousands of my customers do as well, is the Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator.      It works rather well for a LOT of people.  You can read about it, and customer reviews as well, at that link.

You simply use your Hydro Floss twice per day with 2 reservoirs per use for a minimum of 1 month.  Then go back to your dentist and find out what your measurements are.   If those readings are headed in the right direction, then you know you are onto something.  Your dentist can verify your results in this objective way for you!

Of course, you may have additional questions about this simple plan.   If you do, just go ahead and give us a call at 1-888-586-6849.   There is no obligation and your questions about this can be answered.

If you have gum disease, take action.  The reason why is that it probably won't get better unless you do something about it.   Gum disease often leads to tooth loss.  It is the number one cause, in fact.

What You Should Know About Gum Disease

What You Should Know About Gum Disease is a book that I published in 2008.   It is over 200 pages.   However, the first 4 chapters will give you the bulk of the information that I think you need and should definitely read.

I first became interested in this topic somewhere around 2005 or 2006 when my dentist and hygienist suggested that I needed an expensive a possibly painful treatment (after the anesthetic wore off) treatment called a Scaling and Root Planing or SRP  treatment.

I sure didn't like the sound of that.   My dentist actually told me that it was the only thing that would help.   I decided that I needed to test that theory. 

It took some trial and error but I found something that really worked.   I found other things that helped, but there was one thing in particular that REALLY helped. 

Dentist Visibly Surprised

My dentist was quite surprised.  She seemed to have trouble believing the change in my periodontal (gum) health.   She eventually said, "Ok, whatever you are doing, keep it up.  You don't need that treatment any longer."     I was, of course, delighted.

Three out of Every For People Have Gum Disease

This is what many dental professionals say.  I thought a book like mine would be very valuable to people.   I've discovered that most people are unwilling to consider the possibility that they have gum disease.  Some won't even believe it, or they were not told, when they lose teeth and need dentures and / or implants.

You see, gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss.   There is nothing else that comes close.   Yet, people will lose some their teeth and still not realize they have it.   That is truly a tragedy.

Education Is The Key

If what many dentists say is true and three out of every four people really do have gum disease, what are the odds that you or someone you love has this problem.    You see, this book has great value for you and your family.   Every family should have a copy of this book, in my opinion.   Yes, I am the author, but it doesn't change reality.     With so many people facing this problem and still unaware, it seems to me this book could really help a lot of people.  That includes possibly yourself and those whom you love!

Here is a picture of the book:

What Should You Do When You Have Missing Teeth?

The most important thing to understand is that you cannot leave things the way they are when you have a missing tooth.

That tooth worked in opposition to another tooth.   With a hole there, the other teeth will start to shift around.  This could (will most likely) over time, throw your bite of. 

That in turn will create uneven wear on your teeth.    That is just one small problem that can (most likely) happen.

Therefore it is important that you either get an implant or a denture.   Implants can be quite expensive and dentures are not usually cheap either.   Then there is the daily care involved.

You can talk over with your dentist or implantologist about what the costs and benefits / disadvantages of each are.

But do not leave a hole where a tooth used to be, this can cause many problems.   It is important to get that fixed up right away.


Don't Lose Any More Teeth

The most common cause of tooth loss is gum disease.  More teeth are lost to gum disease than anything else.   It is tragic because many people have gum disease and have no idea that they have it.  No one has really explained what is going on to them.

Dentists and hygienists probably see diseased gum tissue every day.   Patients just do not fully understand what they are headed for. 

Therefore, you should consider learning as much as you can about prevention and possibly stopping the progression of gum disease as soon as possible.

I guess that you would agree (I sure hope so) that you should do everything you can to save your remaining teeth.

In addition to seeing your dentist as soon as possible, here are some resources for you to learn from:


1. The Book: What You Should Know About Gum Disease 

2. The Guide:  How to Stop Gum Disease In 3 Easy Steps

3.  The Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator




I wish you the best in preventing additional tooth loss.      There is a number at the top of the screen if anything on this site sparks additional questions.

What Should You Do If Your Gums Bleed?

First thing you should do is call a periodontist and schedule an appointment. 

Bleeding gums are often a sign of gum disease.  Your periodontist can confirm that for you. 

Gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss.   Unfortunately, many or even most people have some gum disease right now.    Dental professionals often cite the rate at about 75% or 3 out of every 4 people.

Since bleeding gums are a classic sign of this problem, you definitely want to get checked out right away with your dentist or periodontist. 

Some additional resources that you might find valuable are:

1. The Book: What You Should Know About Gum Disease 

2. The Guide:  How to Stop Gum Disease In 3 Easy Steps

3.  The Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator 


I remember one woman that I talked to told me that she wakes up with blood in her mouth every day.  That is an extreme example, but even if your gums bleed while brushing and flossing, you probably have a problem that should be addressed right away.

3 Out Of Every 4 People Have Gum Disease

This is what many (or even most) dental professionals will typically tell you when you ask them.   They generally say 75% of people have some gum disease right now.

It doesn't really matter if you are talking about:

  1. Gum disease
  2. gingivitis
  3. periodontal disease
They are all different stages of the same disease process.

That process can eventually lead to the loss of a tooth.   Severe gum recession may or may not occur before that point.

Gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss.

If you think this is serious and even dangerous, you might be right.   Why lose a tooth if you don't have to.

They say that knowledge is power.

Is Gum Disease A Risk Factor For Stroke?

I found an article on this topic from the washington times website

The article did not convince me entirely. Never-the-less, I do not think that the study described was the only one that pointed to a correlation between these two health problems.

So the list is rather large now of diseases that are somehow related to or correlate to gum disease.
Periodontal disease, periodontitis, and even gingivitis are all different stages or just different names for the same disease process.

It basically means there is enough of a 'bad bacteria' population that secretes  acidic toxins to begin or continue the desctruction of tissue around your teeth.   When this tissue destruction carries on too far, the teeth will become loose and fall.

Stopping this process or preventing it, should be a priority for the majority of people on this planet.  Estimates vary, but many professionals suggest that a very large segment of people have some gum disease right now.  Many just do not know they have it.

That is a shame, since gum disease happens to be the number one cause for people losing teeth.  Unfortunately, many people will not become aware of it until a tooth is loose or it is time for an expensive treatment to try and prevent further damage.

Not everyone on this planet will escape the clutches of gum disease.  But, wouldn't it be great if you were one of the lucky ones who figured it out and where able to avoid the ravages of this problem?

Gingivitis Symptoms, Causes And Treatment

I found a very basic article on the Dental Associates of New England sit3 (BostonSmile.com)

http://www.bostonsmile.com/blog/2013/01/21/gingivitis-symptoms-causes-and-treatment-120272

The article discusses some basic things about gum disease and treatment.


I have my own thoughts on the topic

Gingivitis is the reversible form of gum disease.   Gum disease, periodontal disease and even gingivitis are different stages of the same disease process.  Dental professionals tell us that about 75% of people have some form of gum disease now. 


The best policy is prevention

The article goes on to mention all of the various treatments you can have done to restore the damage of lost tissue.

But, I think the best plan is to prevent it in the first place.

Some good resources on Prevention:

Flossing And Brushing May Not Be Enough To Protect Your Dental Health

Not Enough For Most People


Many people believe that proper brushing and flossing are enough to stop or prevent gum disease and cavities.  I am going to attempt to explain why that may be true sometime but is not true MOST of the time. 

Perhaps you think that I am incorrect in saying that brushing and flossing are not enough?   I understand why you would think that.  After all, it is what we have been indirectly taught since the time we were children.

However, the basic fact remains:  About 3 out of every 4 people have some gum disease right now!  I did not make that up.  75% of people have some gum disease.  Ask any dental professional, this is the standard answer.  You might find some variation but 75% is the typical answer you will receive. 

Therefore, if 75% of people have some gum disease right now, then regular brushing and flossing must not work for most people. 


You Should Definitely Continue to Brush and Floss

Please do not misunderstand me.  You should continue to brush and floss because they are both important preventive measures that should not be overlooked.   It is important that you continue to do both.   

It is also important that you get your regular dental cleanings at the frequency that your dentist or periodontist recommends.  Those cleanings can really help you. 

However, nearly every dental professional will agree that what you do at home has the greatest impact of all on your dental health.    I think we just established that brushing and flossing, while important are not keeping MOST people from having gum disease. 


What Else Can You Do?  

 I have written a book on this subject entitled:  What You Should Know About Gum Disease : A Layman's Guide To Fighting Gum Disease ISBN:  978-0981485508

One of the most useful tools I have found for helping to stem the tide, reducing periodontal pocket depths and helping you to make your gums healthier is this home use machine.  

I have also written a free report about it called:  How To Stop Gum Disease In 4 Easy Steps.  you can get that free report HERE.  

Well, I think I have given you enough tools and resources to explore further if you want to.   

I can only say that I really do believe that a copy of my book belongs on every family's bookshelf.  When you consider that 75% of people have gum disease whether they know it or not, then in only makes sense that every family and most individuals need this information.

Signs And Symptoms of Periodontal Disease

Dr. Andrew Pallos has written a nice web page about the basic signs and symptoms of periodontal disease.

I won't go over them because they are pretty standard, but you can read Dr. Pallos' post here:

http://www.drpallos.com/procedures/periodontal-disease/signs-symptoms-of-periodontal-disease/

I will talk about:

What I Think Is Important

I like that Dr. Pallos wrote about periodontal disease.   It's also known as gum disease.   In fact, the three terms, gum disease, periodontal disease and gingivitis are simply different stages of the same disease process. 

Periodontal disease and gum disease are more or less synonymous and refer to the irreversible erosion of tissue.   Gingivitis, on the other hand, is the beginning stage of this disease process and can be corrected before irreversible damage occurs.

To cut through a lot of mumbo jumbo and make it simple, here are the key points:

You can monitor your level of gum disease (75% of people have some) more or less objectively through the periodontal pocket depths - as measured by a hygienist or dentist.

Generally speaking,  3mm and below is considered healthy and above 3mm is considered unhealthy.

Therefore, you want to find tools that can help you keep the plaque and tartar (as mentioned in  Dr. Pallos article, in check.    Or, reduce those pockets if necessary.

For me and many of my customers, this machine has helped.    In fact, it saved me from a SRP (Scaling and Root Planing Treatment or Deep Cleaning). 

In the US these treatments can be quite costly.   I've heard they are pretty inexpensive in New Zealand though!

The Best part about using this machine is that you can monitor and watch your results and progress (or lack thereof) via your very own dentist or hygienist. 

Nothing else worked for me and my dentist insisted that I get  that SRP treatment.   But, when I showed up at her office after using that machine for a few months,  she conceded that my gums where healthy and I did not need that treatment after all!    How wonderful.

This Gum Disease Problem

It really is a big problem.  Lots of people have it and many don't know they have it.   So, how do you get this information in the hands of people if they don't even know they have the problem.

Preventing the problem is very important.  Stopping and existing problem is equally important.

When I say a lot of people have gum disease, dental professionals tell us about 75%  (sometimes higher) have gum disease.   That's 3 out of every 4 people.   That really is a lot.   What do you think the odds are that you are the 1 out of 4 that is safe? 

As I mentioned before, people just don't know they have this problem.  Often times, they are not told until it is time for an expensive treatment.

People are busy and they don't always have time to educate their patients.   Many doctors have found that the people actually do not listen until the situation is critical.   In a certain sense, you cannot blame them because they know people won't listen.

On the other hand, some dental professionals keep trying even though they understand the probability of getting through to more than a few people is unlikely.   This has been the blockage that has faced other dentists who have gone out of their way to talk about prevention. 

Unfortunately,  I am finding a similar situation.  Even though about 75% of people have some gum disease, they just don't want to pay attention to what I have to say.  

On the other hand, there are those who are delighted to find my information.  The absorb it, act on it, and some even call me to tell me how much better their dental health has become - as measured by their hygienist or dentist. 

I always advocate working with professionals.   My book is easy-to-understand and I believe it has the potential to save you a tremendous amount of money, pain and unhappiness over the years. 

Every family should have a copy and ever dental office should be giving copies to their patients.

What You Should Know About Gum Disease Part 28 Video

Part 28 of the Book:   What You Should Know About Gum Disease


Plaque Is The Enemy

Consistent, daily disruption of plaque is the secret to defeating many dental health problems, including gum disease.

The problem with plaque is that it harbors bacteria that are able to exist in an 'anaerobic' form.  This means that they use a biologically inefficient form of metabolism that leaves acid chemicals as a byproduct.

These waste products can attack your tooth enamel as well as your gum tissue.  The saving grace is that the plaque must remain intact for this to happen.

If the plaque is disrupted and the bacteria underneath are exposed to oxygen, they will die or revert to 'normal' efficient metabolism that does not produce the same harmful waste products.

Plaque will quickly begin to reform as soon as it has been disrupted.   It is believed that in about 24 hours it will have sufficiently regrown to shield the 'bad' bacteria from oxygen to the point that they can rapidly multiply and secrete more and more waste products.

Therefore, the work of disruption must be done daily.


Brushing and Flossing

These are definitely worthwhile plaque disrupting activities.  They should continue to be done.  The question is:  Are they enough?

The answer, I believe, lies in the fact that dental health professionals tell us that about 75% of people have some gum disease right now.   That is a frightening number for sure.  

I believe that it also answers the question about whether brushing and flossing are enough to prevent gum disease.


The Book:  What You Should Know About Gum Disease discusses what this problem is and what else might be helpful to you in your fight to put an end to or prevent this problem that attacks so much of the human race.   You can get your copy of that book here. 

Of course, you should get your regular dental cleanings and work with your dental health professional all the way.   But, if a little knowledge helps you to prevent lost teeth and expensive treatments, then it is more than worth the $20 or so that the book costs.

Whatever the case may be,  this problem definitely afflicts a lot of people.   Most people do not know they are part of the 3 out of every 4 that are affected.  They may not find out until later when the disease progresses to 'noticeable' levels.  But, at that point, the damage has been done.

Why reach that point?   Stop it now.

Diabetes' Relationship To Gum Disease

I found a nice, easy to understand explanation at Dr. Froum's website.   Because he made it easy, I think he deserves a reward with a link to his explanation.   Click here to read it.

Dr Froum is a cosmetic dentist with a penchant for periodontics and implants.   He is located in New York City and his phone number is:   (917) 338-0259 

I do prefer prevention over implants.   But it is good to understand that diabetics are at an increased risk for gum disease. They are more susceptible to infection.   Gum disease is, essentially a bacterial infection, but it is one that 'eats' the supporting tissue structure around each tooth.   

You definitely don't have to be diabetic to have gum disease.  In fact, gum disease is something that most people have, whether they know it or not.  But, that doesn't make it 'ok' to have gum disease.  
Dental professionals tell us that about 75% of people have this horrible problem.  And that is horrid.  

Yet, diabetics are even more at risk than the 'average' person.  So, it is in the interest of the diabetic to learn about the problem of gum disease and what he can do about it.   

I may be biased, but I think the book I wrote:  What You Should Know About Gum Disease: A Layman's Guide To Fighting Gum Disease is super to get the kind of information that could end up saving a person a lot through prevention.  

It sure is not all about brushing and flossing.   While those are good things to do and important.  If they worked for everyone, then I think we would not have a 75% incidence of gum disease!

Lost teeth, I'm pretty sure is something that everyone wants to avoid.   I like Dr. Froum's easy to understand explanation about the relationship between diabetes and periodontal disease.   Thanks Dr. Froum for sharing it.

What I think is the best oral irrigator and why

Biofilm Is Plaque

The 'biofilm' is just another term for plaque.  The bacteria build it themselves.  When it builds up sufficiently, they start to rapidly multiply.  This time may vary slightly, but most experts think 24 hours is about right.

That means, you need to disrupt that plaque at least once every 24 hours or it will achieve the environment that allows for rapid growth.  That would be the 'shielded from oxygen' state that anaerobic (oxygen shunning) bacteria love.

So, how do you know that you are doing a sufficient job of that?  You will want an objective measure.  That measure  is the periodontal pocket depths.  You should know what they are and if you do not, then you should ask your dentist to measure them for you.

They should be measured on every visit.   Generally speaking,  most doctors will say your gums are healthy if all of your pocket depths are 3mm and below.  If not, generally speaking, most doctors will say that your gums are not healthy.

Over time, a bad situation tends to get worse.  Pocket depths increase, more tissue destruction occurs and the teeth lose more support.  One day the tooth may become loose.  After that, it could fall out.

So the daily disruption of plaque is important.


Tooth Loss

Gum Disease Is the number one cause of it.  There is nothing else that comes close.

This is why I think it is important for people to know about this topic.  Some people are quick to say 'brush and floss'.  While those are helpful and should be continued, the reality is that there are plenty of people out there who brush and floss faithfully but they still end up with gum disease.

So, perhaps the perception that 'brushing and flossing' is all that you need, should come to an end.

Learn what you can now, in order to save money, time and pain later.

Part 25 

Suggested Tool 

Gum Disease - A Big Topic and A Big Problem

Before you ask, I do indeed get tired of talking about it.  But, it is necessary for the benefit of others to hammer some key points over and over again.

When you are trying to reach people with genuine and helpful information, it ends up being this way, as there is no other way.

The big key points,  and please pay attention, are:

1. Gum Disease affects 75% of people right now.   Ask any hygienist.  She will have any number of horror stories to tell you.    I know one hygienist that quit.  She told me that she was tired of looking at what she called the 'oreo cookie' look that people have in their mouths.

In case you are wondering, she is talking about excessive tartar build up.  Hygienist are the unsung heroes of dental care because they are constantly removing that stuff for people.

They know that under that tartar and / or plaque build up, unhealthy populations of bacteria love to grow.   In fact, these bacteria created the plaque and tartar.  They are constantly trying to build and establish a suitable environment in your mouth in which to proliferate themselves.

Think there is no intelligence at the cellular level?   Think again.

2.  Gum Disease Is The Number One Cause of Tooth Loss

Nothing else even comes close.  Accidents, cavities or anything else are far in the distance.  Gum Disease is out in front.  And It would love to have all of your teeth.

75% is a big number.  The disease progresses (usually slowly and over time) and people lose gum tissue.  They think it is a 'normal' part of aging.  NOT TRUE.  The final step is for the tooth to either fall our or be pulled.   I can only point things out, it is up to the individual to learn more about this problem.

As we continue our series on gum disease, it should be pretty evident to you by now that  gum disease afflicts a lot more people than you might think.  In fact, it is possible that even you have some without knowing it?

How Do You Find Out?

The most objective way is to find out what your periodontal pocket depths are.  Any dentist or hygienist can take these measurements for you.  General speaking, anything above 3 millimeters is considered a problem.  At three millimeters and below,  generally speaking, you usually considered to be healthy.

How many people are above 3mms?  Dental professionals tell us that about 75% or 3 out of every four people have some gum disease right now?

Why is that a problem?  

Gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss, period.   That means having it can cost you a lot of money in dental surgeries, special cleanings, gum tissue repair and teeth replacements.  None of which are particularly pleasant and most of which, if not all, are very costly.

Therefore, it would be logical to consider that you should learn all that you can about this problem.  This would potentially benefit  not only yourself, but also your loved ones and perhaps even friends.

Perhaps the easy to understand book, What You Should Know About Gum Disease: A Layman's Guide to Fighting Gum Disease is just the ticket you need?

Periodontal Pocket Depths

As stated in the video, you need to be aware of what your periodontal pocket depths are.  These measurements should be made by your dentist or hygienist at every office visit.  They should write them down on a chart for you that you can take home with you.

Doing so will help you to see where  you are at and where you need to go.   Where do you want to be?  Answer: At 3mm and below everywhere.   You don't want anything above 3mm.   Some professionals think that a 4 is ok on the very back molars because the tissue is a little different there.   However,  4 is definitely not ok in the front of your mouth.

To make it easy, I think you should shoot for 3 and below everywhere.   Once you have achieved that and are able to maintain 3 and below, most dental professionals will say your gums are healthy at that point.   All you have to do from that point on is maintain.    You can breathe a little easier because it will be very unlikely that the bad bacteria have sufficient numbers to damage the tissue that supports your teeth.

Power Is More In Your Hands

These numbers are very important to you.  Once you know what they are you are empowered to move forward.  You have a starting point.   That is far better than trying to guess what is happening in your own mouth.   Get those numbers and watch them like a hawk.
