Gum diseases
Health of gums is a very important aspect of general health. Diseases of gums do have profound effect on the general health of an individual. Periodontal disease is better known as gum disease. In the next millennium periodontal disease is going to be the most common dental problem. 90 % of the adults above 40 are affected by one or the other form of periodontal disease. Periodontal disease affects the gums and other supporting structures of the teeth. Gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease, starts with plaque which is a soft, sticky and colourless film of bacteria that forms on the teeth. If not removed from time to time the bacterial plaque can release toxins and enzyme that irritate and inflame the gum tissues. Gums then become swollen, red, sensitive and can bleed painfully.

In its more advanced stage the disease affects the bone and other supportive structures and is known as Periodontitis. This happens when the plaque responsible for the gingivitis is not removed and hardens around the gums line and forms Tartar. The Tartar causes inflammation which causes space between the gum and the teeth. It starts eating out the underlying bone and ultimately the tooth loosens its hold and fall out itself. Red, swollen tender gums which bleed on brushing indicate Gingivitis. Smokers are 3.3 times more likely to suffer advanced Periodontitis than the non-smokers. Pregnant females with periodontal diseases are more likely to deliver premature low birth weight infants than those without it. Many recent studies have suggested connection between periodontal diseases and cardiovascular diseases.

EPISTAXIS...(NOSE BLEEDIND)
General Info about Nose Bleed The nose is a part of the body that is very rich in blood vessels (vascular) and is situated in a vulnerable position on the face. Any trauma to the face can cause bleeding from the nose. This is common in dry climates, or during the winter months when the air is dry and warm from household heaters.
What are the causes of Nose Bleed ? Trauma to the nose (nose picking, foreign bodies, forceful nose blowing).
The most common cause of a nose bleed is drying of the nasal membranes.
Tumors, particularly malignant tumor of the nose or sinuses.
The incidence of nosebleeds is higher during the colder winter months when upper respiratory infections are more frequent, and the temperature and humidity fluctuate more dramatically.
Use of "blood thinning medications" called anti coagulants.
Recurrent nosebleeds may be a symptom of an underlying disorder such as high blood pressure.
Inflammation of the nose or sinuses and cold may cause a nose bleed.
Deviated septum (when the partition between your nose is crooked), foreign objects in the nose, or other nasal obstruction may also cause nosebleeds.

What are the symptoms of a Nose Bleed ? Bleeding from one or both nostrils.
Frequent swallowing.
Sensation of fluid flow in the back of the nose and throat.
How can a Nose Bleed be diagnosed? A thorough medical history for previous bleeding, high blood pressure, liver diseases, use of anticoagulants, nasal trauma, family history of bleeding etc. should be taken.
Analysis of blood coagulation parameters.
Measurement of the blood pressure and X-rays of the skull and sinuses maybe necessary.
How can Nose Bleed be treated ? First Aid
Calm the patient if necessary with medication. The patient should sit with the upper part of the body tilted forward and the mouth open so that they can spit out the blood instead of swallowing. Check to see if there is an object inside the victim's nose and remove it if necessary.
