Periodontal
Scaling / Disease
The word periodontal means “around the tooth.” Periodontal diseases, also called gum diseases, are serious bacterial infections that attack the gums and the surrounding tissues. If it’s left untreated, the disease will continue and the underlying bone around the teeth will dissolve and will no longer be able to hold the teeth in place. Generally, periodontal disease isn’t painful, so it is possible to have it and not be aware of it.
Vatan Dental Center was founded in the first place to create absolutely beautiful smiles.
What causes
periodontal disease?
As with many other oral health diseases, bacteria and plaque buildup is often the cause. In fact, plaque buildup (which contains many kinds of bacteria) is the leading cause of gum disease. Other factors that contribute to gum disease include:
-
Genetics
-
Lifestyle choices
-
A diet low in nutrients
-
Smoking or the use of smokeless tobacco
-
Autoimmune or systemic diseases
-
Diabetes
-
Hormonal changes in the body
What are the treatments for periodontal disease?
Treatment may include any, or a combination of, the following:
-
Tartar (calculus) and plaque removal beneath the gums. Deep cleaning (also called scaling and root planing) can help remove tartar beneath the gums and infected tissue in the early stages of the disease. It also smoothes the damaged root surfaces of the teeth. The gums can then reattach to the teeth.
-
Medicine. Antibacterial medicines may be placed topically in the periodontal pockets or taken orally.
-
Surgery. When the disease is advanced, the infected areas under the gums will be cleaned, and the tissues will then be reshaped or replaced. Types of surgeries include:
-
Pocket reduction
-
A regeneration procedure
-
A soft tissue graft
-
Crown lengthening
