EviWelle and Gum Disease

Updated: Oct 21

GUM (PERIODONTAL) DISEASE:


Understanding Gum Disease

Gum disease is an inflammatory condition affecting the gums and the structures supporting the teeth. It often starts as gingivitis, a mild inflammation caused by plaque buildup, which can affect up to 90% of people. If not treated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more severe condition that can lead to:

  • Loss of gum attachment

  • Bone loss around the teeth

  • Tooth loss


What Causes It?

The disease is driven by bacteria like Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola. These bacteria invade the gums and trigger an immune response that, while trying to fight the infection, can also damage the gums and bones.


Key Risk Factors:

  • Poor oral hygiene

  • Smoking

  • Diabetes

  • Aging

  • Genetic predisposition


Impact on Your Health

Periodontal disease affects about 50% of adults, with 10-15% developing severe forms that can impact overall well-being and quality of life. It’s also linked to other health issues:

  • Increases the risk of heart disease by up to 44% in older adults

  • Raises mortality risk in type 2 diabetes patients by 3.2 times

  • Contributes to 15–50% preterm births

Bromelain: The Pineapple Enzyme

Bromelain, derived from pineapples, has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that make it a great addition to oral care. It helps:

  • Disrupt the growth of harmful bacteria and plaque

  • Reduce inflammation and bone loss

  • Reduces Gum Pockets

  • Protect against chronic periodontal infection

  • Break down staining proteins → brighter smile

  • Natural alternative to bleaching

  • Improves overall gum health

 

Lactoferrin: Nature’s Protector

Lactoferrin is a natural protein found in milk, saliva, and tears. It offers multiple protective benefits simultaneously:

  • Reduces harmful bacteria without disturbing healthy ones

  • Prevents plaque bacterial adhesion and invasion

  • Reduces inflammation and supports bone health and regeneration

  • Reduce oral malodour

  • Protects Implants by reducing the risk of bacterial on implant surfaces

  • Gingivitis and periodontist management


Erythritol & Betaine: A Powerful Duo

• Erythritol is a naturally occurring sugar alcohol found in microorganisms, algae, fermented foods, lichens, mushrooms, fruits, vegetables, and even in animal and human tissues.

• Betaine is a zwitterionic organic compound that naturally occurs in beetroot and is also present in many plants and animals.

These natural substances work together to:

  • Remove plaque gently and effectively

  • Inhibit harmful gum disease causing bacteria

  • Improve comfort during dental care


Ornithine: Supporting Gum Health

L-Ornithine, a naturally occurring, non-protein amino acid found in foods like meat and fish, helps:

  • Reduce gum pocket depth

  • Decrease gum bleeding

  • Support immune response and gum tissue health
