The mouth contains a wide range and amount of germs.This is one of the parts of the body where most microbes exist.These micro-organisms may cause severe infections and toxic states that influence the whole body.
A bad taste in your mouth may or may not be related to bad breath(halitosis).It is usually related to the bad functioning of the gall bladder or the intestinal fermentations.Cholagogue and digestive plants are recommended.

Periodontal means "located around the tooth."
the term refers to any disorder of the gums or other supporting structures of the teeth.Treatment with natural methods stresses nutrients that fight infection and rebuild bone.
Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums)is considered to be an early stage of periodontal disease caused by sticky deposits of bacteria,mucus,and food particles called plaque.Other possible causes of gingivitis includ breathing though the mouth,badly fitting fillings which irritate surrounding gum tissue,and a diet consisting of too many soft foods that rob the teethe and gums of much needed "exercise."
If left untreated,gingivitis can lead to a condition called pyorrhea(periodontitis).This is an advanced stage of periodontal disease often related to a deficiency of vitamin C,bioflaonoids,calcium folic acid, or niacin.Severe cases will require surgery to remove the infected tissue from the gum and reshaped the bone.
Causes of pyorrhea include poor nutrition,improper brushing,wrong foods,sugar,chronic illness,glandular,disorders,blood disease,smoking,drugs,and excessive alcohol.
Calcium- helps prevent bone loss around the gums
