I was recently diagnosed with early periodontitis. My whole life my gums and teeth have been normal and healthy. Then last year i had a family emergency and began slacking a little on my oral hygiene, but still brushed every day, just no flossing. I am back to brushing twice daily and flossing once daily. I am having root planing and scaling done. I know the slight gum loss i've had can't be reversed, but can i completely eradicate the gum disease and stop further progression and gum and bone loss by maintaining good oral hygiene,
