How to Diagnosis? To confirm whether a person is having periodontitis in mouth and on what stage it is. Follow the steps given below : 1)Check your oral health history to identify the reason that could be the symptom of periodontitis, like alcohol or smoking, which is the cause of dehydrated mouth. 2) Your gums started bleeding and a layer of tartar and plaque start solidifying. 3)Mark the pocket base of the groove among your gums and tooth by fixing the dental examination alongside your teeth under the gumline, generally in several places of the mouth. The depth of a healthy mouth bag is usually between 1 and 3 mm. Deeper 4 mm bags can display periodontitis. Pockets larger than 6 mm cannot be cleaned well. 4)Go for the X-rays to review of bone loss where your dental expert will analyze the deeper pocket depths. Treatment Periodontitis treatment is done by a periodontist , dentist, or dental hygienist. The aim of this treatment is completely clean all the pocket inside teeth and save damage. For the best benefits of the procedure, you need to follow the daily routine of oral care and should quit smoking, drinking, tobacco. There is also an array of surgical techniques that can benefit patients with severe gum disease. These include flap surgery, gingivectomy, and gingivoplasty. What is flap surgery? If scaling and root planning has failed to treat your infection successfully, your periodontist may recommend flap surgery. In which they will pull back the gum tissue, for allowing access to the tooth roots and underlying bony structures. Once they have thoroughly cleaned the tooth roots and repairs the bone tissue, they will stitch the gum flap back into place and cover it with a surgical dressing. What are soft tissue grafts? This method is used to stop the gum retardation or increase the aesthetics of the gum line. That can be used as cover root or develop gum tissue which is lost in a gingival slowdown. It helps in reduction of further gum slowdown, covering revealed roots and provide your teeth with an extra delightful appearance. What is Bone Grafting? Bone grafting is a type of treatment of periodontitis. This is a procedure that is generally used when the bone surrounding of our tooth root has been destroyed by periodontitis. These bone graft can be made up of our small particles of bone, or it can be synthetic. These bone graft are used to prevent tooth loss. Bone graft holds our teeth in place, which helps in preventing tooth loss. It also works as a platform at which regrowth of bone can be possible. What is Guided tissue regeneration? This is a type of treatment which is used for regrowth of bone destroyed by bacteria. For this regrowth of destroyed bone dentist uses a piece of biocompatible fabric. This biocompatible fabric placed between natural existing bone and our tooth. This fabric work as a guard of surrounding of our bone and tooth. It prevents unwanted bacteria from entering into the destroyed bone area and allows the damaged bone to regrowth. What are Tissue-stimulating proteins? This method is used to take care of the diseased tooth root. In this technique, a particular type of gel is applied to the infected tooth root. This gel consists of a kind of proteins which is same as a protein found in developing tooth enamel which stimulates the development of natural and healthy bones tissues also. What is a gingivectomy? A gingivectomy involves trimming and resealing the gum tissue to close deep pockets and prevent recurring infection. Any diseased tissue is removed, and the remaining tissue stitched back into place. Your dentist will finish by covering the area with a surgical dressing. What is a gingivoplasty? A dentist may recommend a gingivoplasty if an infection has caused tissue damage. In the case of severe tissue loss, we can graft tissue from elsewhere — often the roof of your mouth — to rebuild and reshape the gums. In other cases, we may be able to sculpt your remaining gum tissue without a graft. Patients can also undergo a gingivoplasty if they are dissatisfied with the aesthetic appearance of their gums. In this case, it is often referred to as gum re-contouring. Is periodontal treatment uncomfortable? We will administer a local anesthetic using our computer-aided injection technology before any periodontal surgery. You should not feel any discomfort during the procedure, but your gums may be tender when the anesthesia wears off. How should I care for my gums after surgery? Following periodontal surgery, you may experience some discomfort, swelling, or bleeding. You can manage any tenderness with over-the-counter painkillers. Continue to brush and floss your teeth every day but be very gentle and purchase a soft-bristle toothbrush to avoid aggravating your gums. You can also rinse your mouth with an antibacterial mouthwash or salt-water solution to aid healing. Your dentist may provide you with antibiotics or painkillers to take after your surgery. Try and refrain from smoking. Not only can smoking contribute to the development of gum disease, but it can also severely inhibit the body’s natural healing ability. How long will my gums take to heal after periodontal surgery? Post-operative healing after periodontal surgery can take anywhere between a few days to several months, depending on the severity of your condition and the procedure you undergo.
