What is an Ongoing Gum Infection?
Unlike an infection under your skin, gum disease does not normally go away on its own. For infections elsewhere in the body, the harmful bacteria might stay where they are for a few days, but they’ll eventually be driven out by your immune system. But gum disease is an ongoing infection, meaning your immune system can no longer stop it. When this occurs, deep pockets of infection will develop around your teeth.
Regular cleanings might help during the earliest stage of the disease, but deep-cleaning techniques are normally required once the situation becomes more severe.
