Periodontology
We provide a comprehensive treatment of chronic periodontitis
One of our fields of expertise is also periodontology, i.e. dealing with diseases of gums and periodontium – tissues adjacent to the tooth.
Periodontal diseases may develop for years before the patient can notice the problem. For a professional diagnosis and therapy, come and see us in our dental surgeries in Warsaw (district Żoliborz).
Whom does the problem of periodontal diseases concern?
Periodontal diseases may affect the young and elderly alike. In most patients, a periodontal disease is caused by incorrect oral hygiene, smoking tobacco or chronic stress. Malocclusion or mouth breathing may also have a considerable effect. Sometimes, genetic and pathogenic factors, such as diabetes, underlie the development of periodontitis.

Inadequate oral hygiene presents the bacteria residing on dental plaque with an opportunity to thrive on your gums and teeth. Accumulating plaque develops into calculus which, with poor oral hygiene, forms deposit build-ups pressing the gums and creating pathological gingival pockets.
Stages
of periodontitis treatment
We start the treatment with professional cleaning. In the dental surgery, we thoroughly clean the surfaces of the teeth and roots. The patient is instructed how to clean the teeth properly to get rid of the bacteria. Sometimes it is necessary to apply pharmacological therapy.
The next stage of the treatment comprises specialist cleaning of gingival pockets and smoothing out the root surfaces, which allows to reduce the adhesion of bacteria and makes the pockets shallower (the so-called open and closed curettage).
In the event of an advanced periodontitis, we may need to conduct a surgical procedure, during which, after uncovering the gums and cleaning the roots, we apply preparations reconstructing the lost tissues, e.g. bone-restoring BIO-OSS and periodontium-regenerating EMDOGAIN.
Benefits of preventing and treating
periodontal diseases:
Remember, prevention
is better than cure!
How can I prevent periodontal diseases?
The most effective way to prevent periodontal diseases is a daily, thorough oral hygiene, i.e.:
- Regular and thorough cleaning of the teeth, flossing, rinsing with mouthwash (you are able to remove soft dental plaque by yourself during brushing and flossing your teeth).
- If you notice any alarming symptoms, such as: pain or red and bleeding gums, see your dentist at once.
- Remember about regular appointments with your dentist (check-up, treatment of dental caries).
- Professional cleaning (scaling and sandblasting) should be performed in a dental surgery twice a year.
