Periodontitis

Yes, because remember that your mouth is the start of your digestion. Research shows links between inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and inflammation in the mouth.

The oral cavity is not only the place where food is crushed and digestion begins, but also the place of first contact with pathogens.

Only a balanced environment is able to react adequately. Inflammation, on the other hand, causes unrest and imbalance. Your immune system can then not function in sufficient form and pathogens can invade the body.

I guess the question is, are you ready to take the right steps?

We can support you on this path. This includes a detailed analysis, treatment of periodontitis, as well as enrollment in a recall program.

Periodontitis can be treated, but it requires strict follow-up and regular prevention. How high your risk of recurrence/reinflammation is can only be assessed on an individual basis.

Diet, underlying diseases, lifestyle, and factors such as smoking are variables that can influence progression.

The treatment includes cleaning of the recessed gingival pockets. This is done under local anesthesia. Not only solid deposits form in the pockets, but also inflammatory tissue. The goal is to reduce these pocket depths and the inflammation within them. If this occurs, the gums will reattach to your tooth, the swelling and redness will disappear, and bleeding will no longer occur at all or only sporadically.

The foundation for you has been laid. Thorough oral hygiene at home and a regular recall program can ensure the treatment result in the long term.

The regular checks enable us to detect deviations and treat them in good time.

Periodontitis is associated with bone loss and leads to root surfaces being exposed. This in turn can cause hyperemfpathy to cold drinks or cold air. Although this is not dangerous, it may cause you to suffer.

There are ways to alleviate this, which we are happy to discuss.

Periodontitis triggers bone resorption, which is accompanied by altered esthetics.

Where there was once bone and gum, there are now dark triangles.

The teeth lose strength and positional changes may occur.

Teeth are something very emotional and the shame associated with them can be stigmatizing.

Aesthetic treatments are part of our range of services and are also part of dentistry. We want you to feel good and laugh again.

Because in addition to function, aesthetics are just as important for a healthy whole.
