Periodontosis leads to tooth loss

Periodontitis is a chronic infection of the gums with aggressive bacteria, develops very slowly and is not always painful. It usually starts with a chronic gum inflammation and gum-bleeding (causes: lack of or wrong domestic gum care, tartar, infection by partner, pets) and is favoured by malnutrition, vitamin and calcium deficiency, diabetes and general diseases and inevitably ends in tooth loss without proper prophylaxis or treatment.

Regular professional oral hygiene (2x a year) prevents periodontitis and protects the heart and joints from the effects of this chronic infection.

The Periodontal Treatment

Depending on the severity of the periodontitis, different treatment methods are applied.

Ultrasound-scaling

Kills bacteria and removes plaque and tartar under the gums.

Airflow

Nanoparticles smooth the root surface and make bacterial attack more difficult.

Calcium impregnation

Simultaneous impregnation of root surfaces promotes bone regeneration.

Periochip

protects 14 days against new infection after treatment to enable healing.

Care consultation

A detailed consultation helps to keep your gums healthy at home as well.

Prevention is better than cure! For this reason Prof. Troedhan determines your individual periodontal risk, and Mrs. Mirela Kecanovic (Diploma Periodontal Assistant of Prof. Troedhan) then carries out prophylactic treatments individually tailored for you. With her many years of experience and expertise as a DPA, Ms. Kecanovic finds every hidden corner where plaque begins its destructive work and ensures healthy gums. A recurrence of periodontal disease after a successful periodontal treatment can only be prevented with a consistent individual oral hygiene at home and professional accompanying treatment (regular professional oral hygiene sessions). Always remember: Periodontitis is an infectious disease and can recur at any time like any cold.

Ultrasound and laser have replaced periodontal surgery

If the protective barrier to the jawbone has already been partially broken by chronic gum inflammation (bleeding gum pockets), inflammatory tissue, bacteria and tartar under the gums must be removed with ultrasound or laser. This method is called ultrasound deep scaling. It is used when the gum pockets are deeper than 4mm and have already dissolved the jawbone. Of course, this periodontitis treatment (ultrasound Deep Scaling) is painlessly performed by DPA Mrs. Kecanovic with the most modern ultrasound equipment. Only in rare cases and then only for single teeth, periodontal surgery with jawbone reconstruction is sometimes necessary.

For particularly deep bone pockets, an additional chlorhexidine platelet ("periochip") is inserted, which prevents new infection immediately after treatment.

Dental implants in particular must be cleaned regularly

Since dental implants must have a rough surface for better anchoring in the jawbone, they are even more susceptible to infections with pathogenic bacteria than natural teeth. Implant users should therefore carry out prophylactic treatment (oral hygiene) 3-4 times a year and examine the periodontal condition of the adjacent teeth and have them treated if necessary.
