What is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal disease affects the gums and tissues in the mouth that hold the teeth in place. Early-stage periodontal disease is generally referred to as gum disease when the gum tissue around the teeth becomes red and inflamed (gingivitis). Unfortunately, there are few symptoms of gum disease as it tends not to present any pain or discomfort. However, if you notice blood on your toothbrush or when you are flossing, this could be a sign that you have gum disease and should visit a dentist.
Gum disease is caused by acid-producing bacteria that thrive on sweet, sticky, and starchy deposits left in the mouth after eating and drinking. Preventing periodontal disease is as simple as keeping the mouth clean and getting rid of bacteria with a twice-daily brushing and flossing routine, supplemented with regular visits to the dentist who can detect any problems. Unfortunately, if early warning signs such as gingivitis are ignored, the disease progresses to periodontitis.
Periodontitis is when pockets form around the teeth as the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth. These pockets are hard to clean and provide a hospitable environment for bacteria to multiply, damaging the gum tissue further. Eventually, advanced periodontal disease compromises the alveolar bone and connective tissue holding the teeth in place resulting in tooth loss.
Periodontal Treatments
Dentist Tel Aviv’s periodontal services include:
Scaling and Root Planing
Professional teeth cleaning includes scaling and root planing. Simply, scaling is a process to remove plaque and hardened plaque (tartar) from the teeth and gum pockets. Planing is carried out on the tooth roots to clean them from plaque and tartar. Both processes leave the teeth clean and smooth, which makes it more difficult for bacteria to adhere.
Tooth Extraction
Although it is always preferable to keep your teeth where possible, sometimes the only solution is to have a badly damaged tooth extracted. At Dentist Tel Aviv we will remove your tooth painlessly and talk you through the various tooth replacement solutions available.
Ridge/Socket Preservation
Bone loss in the jawbone is a common problem after a tooth is lost. This affects facial structure as the bone supports the facial tissues. It also causes problems for dental implants. Sufficient bone must be available to place an implant successfully. Ridge/socket preservation are bone-grafting techniques carried out to augment the bone and prevent further bone loss.
