Periodontitis or pyorrhea, is an advanced stage of periodontal disease in which the bone supporting the teeth begins to erode as a result of the infection. Periodontitis causes halitosis, with bleeding and often painful gums. Poor nutrition, improper brushing, sugar consumption, chronic illness, glandular disorders, blood disease, smoking, drugs and excessive alcohol consumption make an individual more susceptible to develop pyorrhoea.

BC-18 combines three tissue salts to address symptoms such as gum boils, unnatural looseness of teeth, with or without pain, toothache, gums sensitive to cold, abscess at the root of the teeth, spongy bleeding gums, pus in gums and halitosis.
