There are many people who confuse periodontitis with \u00a0gingivitis. Even when the dentist identifies the difference, people do not imagine that the simple bleeding of the gums at the beginning-that is reminiscent of the familiar, gingivitis can lead to gradual loss of all their teeth! Periodontitis is an inflammation that develops in the tissues that support the teeth meaning, the gums and the bone. At its initial stage it is similar with gum disease, but when the inflammation progresses in the jaw bone, the body, trying to protect the teeth, destroys them. With this procedure, the teeth gradually lose their support, they begin to move and if you do not intervene directly, they will fall. The cause of periodontitis are different microbes that live in our mouths.<\/p>

When not checked.<\/p>

\u2022 THE STRESS<\/p>

It reduces the body’s defenses and makes it more vulnerable to infections.<\/p>

The first phase of treatment is called conservative and includes the so-called subgingival (or radical) curettage. It is a process reminiscent of the classical cleansing \u00a0but is deeper, more specialized and is done partially and always using local anesthesia. It usually takes 4-5 visits to complete this phase. The aim of conservative periodontal therapy is the removal of bacteria from the roots of teeth, fighting inflammation and eliminating pockets that retain germs causing recurrence of periodontitis. In some cases, inside the pockets\u00a0 special antibiotic formulations of slow release\u00a0 are placed\u00a0 which help fight pathogenic microorganisms.\u00a0 In 1-2 months after curettage the effect of treatment\u00a0 is assessed and at this point it is decided whether to proceed to the \u00a0second phase of treatment (surgery). In most cases, however, conservative treatment is sufficient. If, however, \u00a0surgical treatment is required it involves some subtle interventions that aim to either the surgical elimination of \u00a0very deep pockets or to the regeneration of lost bone by placing bone grafts or guided tissue regeneration membranes. Bone regeneration is the ideal treatment, and restores fully the damage caused by periodontitis, but it is only possible in a few cases.<\/p><\/div>
