Periodontology
Periodontium is all the tissue around the teeth. Red or swollen gums, gum pain and tenderness, bleeding brushing teeth, or bad breath can be signs that you are suffering from periodontal disease. It must be mentioned that these diseases are one of the most common causes of tooth loss. If you notice any disturbing symptoms, you should immediately consult a doctor who will make an accurate diagnosis and prescribe effective treatment.
We believe that the most important thing is to accurately determine the causes of periodontal disease. The main cause is usually dental plaque and stones, but these conditions can be caused by harmful habits, occlusal pathologies or even stress.
Periodontal diseases are treated depending on the degree of damage – surgically or non-surgically. Sometimes professional oral hygiene is sufficient, and in more complex cases you need::
- deep cleaning of gum pockets (curettage);
- periosurgical operations;
- preparations that promote bone regeneration.
Treatment of periodontal disease is a complex process that requires not only the professionalism and experience of the doctor, but also the responsibility of the patient to take care of the hygiene of their oral cavity. Only by combining modern treatment methods and preventive measures recommended by the doctor periodontologist, it is possible to say goodbye to the unpleasant symptoms of periodontal diseases and rejoice in one’s health.
Another field of activity of a periodontist is aesthetic perio surgery. During these procedures, the natural and regular line of the gums is restored, and the height of the gums is levelled. These are comfortable invasive procedures that help to create a more beautiful smile.
Do not ignore the symptoms of periodontal diseases – by visiting a periodontist in time, you will save not only your teeth, but also your health.
