Unveiling the Threat: Understanding Gum Disease

Your healthy smile relies on the strong foundation of your gums. But what happens when bacteria infects these vital tissues? This can have damaging consequences, leading to a condition known as gum disease.

The Felon: Bacteria Buildup

When bacterial plaque and tartar accumulate at and below the gum line, they unleash harmful toxins. These toxins trigger the gums to recede from the teeth, creating pockets that trap even more bacteria. This harmful cycle continues to spread infection and inflammation, causing the gums to become red, swollen, and potentially bleed easily.

The Progression: From Pockets to Imminent Danger

If left untreated, gum disease progresses through stages, resulting in increasingly severe damage. Over time, the infection can irreversibly weaken the gums and bone supporting your teeth, increasing the risk of loose teeth and potential tooth loss.

Seeking Solutions: Addressing the Issue at Hand

No matter the stage of gum disease, seeking professional dental intervention is crucial to control the infection and restore your oral health. Untreated advanced gum disease, also known as periodontitis, has been linked to various systemic health complications, including diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and stroke.

At Horasan Dental Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, we offer comprehensive gum disease treatment solutions tailored to address your specific needs, ultimately restoring your smile to optimal health, functionality, and aesthetics

HERE ARE A FEW THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR

Gums that bleed easily, even with gentle brushing or flossing.

Gums that appear red, swollen, or tender.

Receding gums, where the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, making them appear longer.

Persistent bad breath (halitosis) that doesn’t improve with brushing or mouthwash.

Formation of deep pockets between the gums and teeth, which can trap food and bacteria.

Loose or shifting teeth, which can eventually lead to tooth loss.

Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing):

This non-surgical procedure thoroughly removes plaque and tartar buildup from below the gum line (pockets), followed by the smoothing of the tooth surfaces. This method helps control gum disease by reducing harmful bacteria that cause inflammation and infection.

Gum Tissue Reshaping (Gingivectomy):

This option is suitable for moderately advanced gum disease where bone damage hasn’t occurred. It involves carefully removing infected gum tissue around the teeth, followed by stitching the healthy remaining tissue to minimize pocket depth and prevent future bacterial build-up.

Ongoing Maintenance (Periodontal Maintenance):

Following initial treatment, most cases require ongoing care to maintain healthy gums. This involves a deep cleaning process, similar to scaling and root planing, but focusing on the areas below the gum line on a regular basis (typically every 3-4 months) to keep gum disease under control.

Peri-Implantitis Treatment:

This treatment addresses infections in the gum tissue surrounding dental implants, similar to osseous surgery. It involves removing bacteria and infected gum tissue from the pockets, cleaning the exposed implant, and suturing healthy gum tissue back in place to seal the area around the implant and prevent future bacterial build-up.
