Stress-Induced Periodontitis: How Cortisol Destroys Your Jawbone Foundation

High stress levels trigger cortisol spikes that fuel gum infections. Discover how lasers protect your bone.

Chronic mental and physical stress causes your body to flood your system with cortisol. This hormone dampens your immune defense, leaving your gums highly vulnerable to aggressive bacterial decay.

THE MECHANICS OF CORTISOL-DRIVEN FOUNDATION ATTRITION

Elevated cortisol levels disrupt the normal bone-remodeling cycle, shutting down osteoblasts (bone-building cells) while accelerating bone destruction. This allows minor gum infections to rapidly turn into loose teeth.

Laser therapy clears deep pockets, taking the pressure off an already exhausted immune system.
