FL H9105

Designates February 2014 as "Periodontal Disease Awareness Month" in the State of Florida.

Identifies periodontal disease (gum disease) as an infection of tooth-supporting tissues caused primarily by oral bacteria plaque, with contributing factors including diet, general health, oral hygiene, and emotional stress.

Notes that periodontal disease is painless in early stages with warning signs including bad breath and bleeding gums, typically appearing between ages 30 and 50.

Establishes that Florida prioritizes educating citizens about periodontal disease treatment options and dangers of leaving the disease untreated to improve community health outcomes.
