Symptoms,diagnosis and therapy
Symptoms:
Gingivitis always starts with bleeding gums. When you see, you brush your teeth or eating, for example, that your gums bleed, we must be vigilant and immediately consult a dentist. Other signs appear later, such as when the tooth starts to move. The final step is when the tooth falls.
Diagnosis:
To establish an accurate diagnosis, it is necessary to measure the depth of the pocket with a periodontal probe. The dentist can also make a radio jaw. The radio gives an indication of the severity of damage to the jaw bone and helps identify where the plaque was fixed.
Therapy:
It is generally easy to overcome gingivitis when it is detected and treated early. Methods soft and effective as thorough cleaning of the teeth may be enough to overcome moderate gingivitis. The doctor may, firstly, make use of the ultrasound that offer quick cleaning teeth. But it also has special tools such as textbooks curettes to remove dental plaque. When the jaw bone is already seriously damaged and deep pockets were formed, it is often necessary to operate. Under local anesthesia, the dentist begins with an incision and open the gum. The bones and the surface roots are then cleaned. The dentist fills cavities carved into the bone with an artificial material or practicing autogenously graft, ie using the patient's bone substance itself. It can also apply a special gel protein that stimulates bone growth. Finally, we recode the gum.
