Periodontology

Periodontology is dental discipline which occupies yourself  in curing of parodontium diseases and the oral cavity’s mucosal membrane. Sometimes,  paradontoza is defined as periodontology but it is incorrect name.

The disease of parodontium; it is bacterial infection of gum’s tissues and bones around the tooth.

If inflammable condition doesn’t treat, gum’s infection will widen on bone. Unfortunately, it often leads up to make loose of teeth and consequently teeth are lost when there is advanced disease. It is very important, because it concerns teeth’s implants which can be lost during gum’s inflammable condition.

When there are gum’s inflammable processes at the same time it is strong redness of gums and sometimes it can be swelling and gingival pouch exudates. We can have another symptoms as troublesome smell with mouth, bleeding with gums ( while cleaning teeth or without reason ), making loose of teeth and gum’s tissue which exposes surface of root. Causes of inflammable conditions can’t be specific injuries – thermal or chemical burns, mechanical injuries and the dental plaque which is the most popular among patients. The dental plague can be of reason paradontoza and it can put away near the gingival pocket.

We should remember that bacteria are responsible for each inflammable process and the oral cavity of each person even healthy person is a specific reservoir. If the oral cavity has got imbalance in environment, it will lead to change some bacteria into pathogenic bacteria which are called disease bacteria.

Our environment in oral cavity changes food which fill in spaces of teeth. So, we have to pay attention on daily hygiene of our teeth which belong to basics of prophylaxis of diseases parodontium. Teeth ought to be cleaning by the soft toothbrush and spaces of teeth should be cleaning very carefully by the dental thread twice a day. These procedures should be done one by one. Leftovers are the best culture medium for bacteria and these bacteria create of bacteria plaque and glutinous deposit which has got yellow- grey colour and it is to adhere very strongly. Glutinous deposit is always near gum’s space. Later, the dental plaque is defeated of mineralization by mineral salts with saliva and it changes into a tartar. We should remember that bacteria can produce toxins when they live on the dental plaque. And these bacteria are responsible for inflamed parodontium.

TREATMENT OF PARODONTIUM’S DISEASES

We can divide the treatment of diseases of parodontium on three phases:

  • INTRODUCTORY TREATMENT . Its aim is to create basics for further medicinal procedures. We should specify: a diagnostics, the training which concerns hygiene of oral cavity , scaling- mechanical cleaning of teeth’s surface, sealing of furrows, hollows and motivation of patient to care about hygiene of oral cavity.
  • BASIC TREATMENT. It can include : analyze and  correction of bite, subgingival  curettage, pharmacotherapy, permanently or temporary immobilization of teeth and surgery procedures.
  • MAINTENANCE TREATMENT. It can apply after the proper periodontological treatment. Its aim is to keep tissues of parodontium  which were achieved into previous two phases of treatment.
