Periodontology
Healthy gums – the foundation of a beautiful smile
Periodontology is a specialized field of dentistry that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum and periodontal diseases. Healthy gums are the foundation for strong and stable teeth, and gum diseases such as periodontitis or periodontal inflammation can lead to tooth loosening and loss.
At MAZDENT in Krasnystaw, we combine experience with modern technology to offer our patients effective treatment for periodontal disease. We use ultrasound, laser therapy, ozone therapy, and precise digital diagnostics to remove bacterial plaque, tartar, and inflammation.
Each treatment plan is created individually, taking into account the patient’s health, habits, and needs. This allows us not only to stop the progression of the disease, but also to significantly improve aesthetics and quality of life.
What is periodontology and when should you see a specialist?
Periodontology focuses on the treatment of structures surrounding the teeth – gums, periodontal ligaments, and alveolar bone. The most common conditions are:
– gingivitis – manifested by redness, swelling, and bleeding,
– periodontitis – chronic inflammation leading to bone loss and tooth loss,
– gum recession – exposure of tooth roots, causing hypersensitivity,
– periodontal abscesses – acute infections requiring immediate intervention.
It is advisable to see a periodontist at the first signs of inflammation, as early diagnosis offers the best chance of a full recovery.
How do gum and periodontal diseases develop?
The main cause of periodontal disease is the accumulation of bacterial plaque, which mineralizes into tartar. This causes chronic inflammation and gradual destruction of the tissues that support the teeth.
Factors that increase the risk of gum disease include:
– poor oral hygiene,
– smoking,
– a diet low in nutrients,
– diabetes and autoimmune diseases,
– genetic predisposition.
At MAZDENT, we not only treat the effects, but also help patients eliminate the causes of periodontal problems.
Diagnosis and treatment planning
Proper treatment of periodontal disease begins with accurate diagnosis. At MAZDENT, we perform:
– measurement of gingival pocket depth,
– assessment of gingival bleeding and tooth mobility,
– radiological examinations (X-ray, pantomogram, CBCT),
– bacteriological tests.
Based on this, we develop an individual treatment plan, which may include hygiene procedures, curettage, laser therapy, ozone therapy, or surgical procedures. The patient also receives detailed recommendations for home hygiene to maintain the effects of the therapy.
Methods of treating gum disease at MAZDENT
In periodontal treatment, we use:
Ultrasonic scaling – removal of tartar from the surface of teeth and under the gums,
Sandblasting – removal of deposits and discoloration,
Closed or open curettage – cleaning of gum pockets,
Laser therapy – elimination of bacteria and stimulation of healing,
Ozone therapy – effective disinfection of tissues,
Gum plastic surgery – improvement of smile aesthetics.
All procedures are performed under local anesthesia, ensuring maximum comfort for the patient.
