Periodontology treatments in Bologna to cure, prevent and correct gum recession with advanced techniques.
Periodontology is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of periodontal diseases, once commonly referred to as pyorrhoea, that affect gums, the periodontal ligament and the alveolar bone.
At our clinic we treat every patient with a personalised approach.
The aim is to stop the advancement of the disease, reduce the inflammation and maintain the natural teeth for as long as possible.
Causes and symptoms of periodontal disease
Periodontal disease is often caused by the buildup of plaque and tartar that, if not removed regularly, leads to gingivitis and subsequently periodontitis. The most common symptoms are:
▸ red, swollen and bleeding gums;
▸ persistent halitosis;
▸ sensitive teeth;
▸ loose or shifting teeth.
Prompt treatment is fundamental to avoid irreversible consequences.
Periodontitis and pyorrhoea treatments
The treatment can include deep cleaning, or scaling and root planing sessions and, for more complex cases, minimally invasive periodontal surgery procedures.
These treatments eliminate the bacteria responsible for the infections and ensure the wellbeing of the gum and bone.
“Bleeding gums, persistent halitosis or tooth mobility are signs that should not be overlooked.”
Gum recession: when to act
Gum recession manifests itself when the gum recedes, exposing part of the root of the tooth. This can cause hypersensitivity, root caries and aesthetic issues.
Specific periodontal techniques, such as gum grafts or tissue repositioning, can be used to restore the correct profile of the gums, protect teeth and improve the harmony of the face.
Long lasting aesthetic and functional results
The aim of periodontology is not only to preserve functionality but also guarantee a harmonious aesthetic result.
At our clinic in Bologna, the treatments are integrated with maintenance and control programs to ensure the wellbeing of gums and consequent long lasting stability of teeth.
“Early periodontal treatment helps control the progression of the disease.”
