Generally, alveolar bone absorption is divided into horizontal absorption and vertical absorption. Horizontal absorption is more common, while vertical absorption is more serious. If these are not properly controlled, they will eventually cause tooth loosening. This is the main symptom of periodontitis. once you get periodontitis, you must treat it as soon as possible.
