My dentist said my gum disease is caused by stress. What is it?!


Question: My dentist said my gum disease is caused by stress!. What is it!?
I have terribly sore, bleeding gums with a lot of tartar- they are red and hurt so bad!. When I went to my dentist he prescribed me antibiotics and a toothpaste and mouthwash for gum disease (cordysol), plus he cleaned my teeth with a "scale and polish" (although he didnt clean that much I felt!. I still have tartar)!. It hurts like hell and its been over a month and its STILL not getting better!. It keeps bleeding and hurting!. Dentist siad it probably isint a virus or damage to the teeth (i had braces on) because it would start healing!. I was having important exams (gosh i was so stressed out) and he said that people under stress may develop particular form of gum diesease!. Also, he said that my front teeth were loose!. Can someone tell me the name of this!? He said it in initials like CH something!. And that it happens when your stressed!. Its not gingivitis he told me!. So can someone please help me!? Thanks thanks and 10 points for who can answer me correctly!Www@Answer-Health@Com
