Gum disease can cause deterioration of the gum tissue and bone which can lead to receding gums and tooth loss. It may also cause medical problems and advance serious medical conditions in patients with Alzheimer's disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Other systemic diseases that interfere with the body's inflammatory system may worsen the gums, such as cardiovascular disease and rheumatoid arthritis. #MouthBodyConnection
