Periodontal Treatment
The care and treatment of infections in the gums, bones, and tissues supporting the teeth are all included in the field of periodontal dentistry. The condition affects three out of every four adults. Plaque, the clingy layer of food and bacteria that builds up on teeth over time, is typically the root cause of periodontal disease.
At Definite Dental Solutions, we employ the Debridement process, which involves meticulously removing thick plaque and tartar with an ultrasonic scaler. When treating periodontal disease, it works well. Soft ultrasonic vibrations are produced by an ultrasonic scaler. By reducing the quantity of harmful germs below the gum line, the little click vibrations and high frequency water waves effectively remove tartar. It may be advised to use antibiotics or anti-microbial irrigation (chemical agents or rinses) to assist reduce the growth of bacteria that produce toxins and cause periodontal disease. By evaluating the depths of the pockets surrounding the teeth, follow-up exams can assess the success of the treatment. The patient could be referred to a periodontist in complex circumstances.
