Treatment of periodontitis in the Stomatology dental clinic
Periodontitis: what is this disease
Periodontitis is a disease that affects the tissues that surround and support the teeth, namely the gums, cementum and bone tissue. It is characterized by inflammation of these tissues, which can lead to tooth loss.

Causes and symptoms of periodontitis
Causes of periodontitis:
- Improper oral hygiene – if the teeth and gums are not cleaned properly, bacteria and food residues linger on them, which leads to inflammation of the gums and periodontium.
- Tobacco smoking – targeted studies show that people who smoke have a higher risk of developing periodontitis.
- Genetic predisposition – some people are born with more vulnerable periodontium, which increases the risk of developing the disease.
- Improper nutrition – insufficient intake of vitamins and minerals, lack of protein and other dietary problems can affect periodontal health.
- Other diseases – diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and other conditions that worsen the overall state of health can increase the risk of developing periodontitis.
Symptoms of periodontitis can manifest themselves differently in different people. Some patients may not experience any symptoms, while others may have very severe symptoms. The main symptoms of periodontitis include:
- Bleeding gums when brushing teeth or eating;
- Slow reduction of the gums on the roots of the teeth;
pain or discomfort while chewing food; - Bad breath;
- Mobility of the teeth or the feeling of their free state in the gums;
- The appearance of purulent deposits under the gum;
- Increased sensitivity of teeth to temperature changes.
Stages of periodontitis
The stages of periodontitis differ in the nature and severity of the manifestations. Let’s consider them in more detail:
Gingivitis
The first stage of periodontitis is gingivitis. It is characterized by inflammation of the gums, which can be caused by poor oral hygiene, tobacco use, stress or some medications. Symptoms of gingivitis include red and swollen gums, bleeding when brushing teeth, and bad breath.
Simple periodontitis
The second stage of periodontitis is simple periodontitis. At this stage, the inflammation spreads to the tissues surrounding the tooth, and Escherichia coli appears, causing damage to the gums. Symptoms include pain, swelling and discoloration of the gums, bleeding when brushing the teeth, and the appearance of deep pockets between the teeth and gums.
Periodontitis with bone damage
The third stage of periodontitis is periodontitis with bone damage. The inflammation spreads to the bones and deep pockets appear, which can become a source of infection. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bleeding when brushing teeth, damage to tooth enamel.
Stage of purulent periodontitis
At this stage, manure is formed. At the same time, the disease can affect many teeth and cause pain and pulsation. The teeth can be excessively mobile, and an unpleasant smell from the mouth appears. Over time, this can lead to tooth loss.
Stage of tissue periodontitis
This stage reflects the final stage of the disease, when the tissues under the gums are destroyed. A significant amount of bacteria appears, which can lead to exacerbation of the infection and damage to bone tissue. Teeth become very mobile, painful and may fall out if treatment measures are not taken.
Prevention of periodontitis
The goal of periodontitis prevention is to prevent the development of this disease and preserve the health of the gums and teeth. The main methods of periodontitis prevention include:
- Regular visits to the dentist. It is recommended to undergo professional oral hygiene and a dental examination at least once every six months.
- Oral hygiene. It is necessary to brush the teeth daily with a toothbrush and use dental floss. You can also use interdental brushes and mouthwashes.
- Proper nutrition. It is important to include a sufficient amount of fruits and vegetables in your diet, as well as increase the consumption of products containing vitamin C and calcium.
- Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol consumption.
- Regular gum training. To maintain gum health, you can perform special exercises to strengthen muscles and improve blood circulation.
If periodontitis is suspected, it is necessary to make an appointment with a doctor for treatment of periodontitis. Early detection and treatment of the disease will help prevent its progression and preserve the health of the gums and teeth.
Modern methods of treatment of periodontitis in the clinic
Stomatology
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the periodontal tissues (a complex of tissues surrounding the tooth) caused by bacteria, which can lead to tooth loss.
Treatment of periodontitis occurs in several stages and depends on the degree of its severity.
First degree. As a rule, it is detected during preventive examinations and is treated with medication. The patient is necessarily prescribed drugs to increase immunity, since the immune system often works worse in patients with periodontitis. Then choose anti-inflammatory drugs. Medicines are administered locally or prescribed in the form of tablets. Physiotherapy is also effective – a set of procedures: gum massage, electrophoresis, vacuum and light therapy.
Second and third degrees. It requires surgical intervention, as there is resorption of bone tissue, and as a result – gum recession.
In particularly severe cases, SRP, open curettage, or flap operations are performed. During this procedure, excess tissue (granulation) is removed, which was formed due to the presence of deep periodontal pockets.
Procedures that help in the treatment of periodontitis:
Professional hygiene – removes hard and soft dental deposits in hard-to-reach places, such as the junction of the exposed necks of the teeth with the gum, thereby preventing possible inflammation. It is necessary for every patient twice an hour, regardless of the state of the periodontium.
Splinting – fixation of a loose tooth row with the help of a splint. Strengthens the row and prevents it from moving.
Plasma therapy is the best tool for healing post-operatively damaged and regenerating tissues.
Plasma therapy is also recommended for periodontitis to improve the metabolic process in the periodontium and strengthen it.
