Also called: Gingivitis, Pyorrhea Alveolaris, Periodontitis, Gum Disease, Periodontal disease, Periodontal disease
Gingivitis/ Periodontal disease/ Gum Disease is one of the most common Periodontal disease. It affects almost 80% of the American population. Gingivitis is first characterized by swelling of the gums. If not treated in time the infection can spread to the root canal before damaging the Orodental bone. In Gingivitis, the gums become red and swollen. They can bleed easily. Most people can reverse this with daily brushing and flossing and seeing their dentist regularly. Untreated Gingivitis can lead to periodontitis. The gums pull away from the teeth and form pockets that are infected. If not treated, the bones, gums and connective tissue that support the teeth are destroyed leading to the loosening and fall of the teeth.

"When my mother fell ill with cancer I wanted to find a natural solution to help with her suffering.
After an excessive
research I learned about Wheatgrass. And it seemed to work!
She passed through chemotherapy with ease. But was it the Wheatgrass?
And if it was, how come it was so hard to find out about it?"
