Periodontics

Bad habits for your oral hygiene; improper brushing technique, smoking, dental crowding, etc, causes accumulation of food debris and other irritants that favour the proliferation of bacteria which produce chemicals that inflame and irritate the gums producing pyorrhoea.

This is one of the most common diseases that exists because it has no symptoms until the disease is in a very advanced state. Its main symptoms are: frequent bleeding of the gums, mainly when brushing, dental mobility and bad breath.

It is important to take into account that pyorrhoea is a serious disease that can cause irremediable loss of teeth, which can be replaced with prostheses or implants. Chronic pyorrhoea can also favor the appearance of other diseases, both oral and systemic, so it should be treated by a periodontist. In this case, the Periodontist must remove all plaque and calculus accumulated up to the root of the tooth by means of the procedure known as Perio Scaling and Root Planning. After the recovery period has elapsed the teeth are fixed again by the healing process but a strict oral hygiene should be kept, improving the brushing technique, using dental floss and mouthwash, in addition the patient must periodically attend periodontal checks to verify that the disease does not resurface.
