Life-Threatening!?” Periodontal disease is said to affect one in two people over the age of 15, making it a truly national disease. Periodontal disease is caused by periodontal bacteria that live in the mouth, but one bacteria known as the “red complex” is said to have a particularly detrimental effect on the entire body. Among the dozens of types of periodontal bacteria, the red complex refers to three particularly nasty bacteria.
