How much compensation can I get for my personal injury? Updated: Tuesday, 4th April 2017. One of the most common questions asked by people contemplating making a claim for compensation following an accident is how much compensation they will get.
All about gum disease. Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection that causes a chronic inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissue. It is the major cause of about 70% of adult tooth loss, affecting nearly 80% of people at some point in their life.
Infections caused by fungi and viruses can potentially cause swollen gums. If you have herpes, it could lead to a condition called âacute herpetic gingivostomatitis,â which causes swollen gums. Thrush, which is the result of an overgrowth of naturally occurring yeast in the mouth, can also cause gum swelling. Untreated dental decay can lead to a dental abscess, which is localized gum swelling.
