Gums Treatment
The main cause of gum(periodontal) disease is bacteria in the form of a sticky, colorless plaque that constantly forms on your teeth; however, many other factors can cause gum disease or influence its progression.
Common Measures for Treating Gum Disease Cleaning & Polishing(Scaling & root planning)-is needed on a regular basis. It is suggested that scaling should be ideally done at every six months interval. Plaque and calculus is deposited on the teeth and prosthesis which eventually affects the gums. The calcium that is present in the saliva causes the plaque to get calcified and hard. The calcified plaque is called calculus/tartar which cannot be cleaned by mere brushing of teeth. Scaling is done with ultrasonic scaler machine in combination with hand instruments. The tips of the machine vibrate at a high frequency thus fragmenting the calculus. The end result is a cleaner mouth with healthy gums that is not only hygienic but also gives one a better look.Curettage--a scraping away of the diseased gum tissue in the infected pocket, which permits the infected area to heal.Flap surgery--involves lifting back the gums and removing the tartar. The gums are then sewn back in place so that the tissue fits snugly around the tooth. This method also reduces the pocket and areas where bacteria grow.Bone grafts--used to replace bone destroyed by periodontitis. Tiny fragments of your own bone, synthetic bone, or donated bone are placed where bone was lost. These grafts serve as a platform for the regrowth of bone, which restores stability to teeth.Soft tissue grafts--reinforce thin gums or fill in places where gums have receded. Grafted tissue, most often taken from the roof of the mouth, is stitched in place over the affected area.Guided tissue regeneration--stimulates bone and gum tissue growth. Done in combination with flap surgery, a small piece of mesh-like fabric is inserted between the bone and gum tissue. This keeps the gum tissue from growing into the area where the bone should be, allowing the bone and connective tissue to regrow to better support the teeth.Bone (osseous) surgery--smoothes shallow craters in the bone due to moderate and advanced bone loss. Following flap surgery, the bone around the tooth is reshaped to decrease the craters. This makes it harder for bacteria to collect and grow.Medications--in pill form are used to help kill the germs that cause periodontitis or suppress the destruction of the tooth's attachment to the bone. There are also antibiotic gels, fibers or chips applied directly to the infected pocket. In some cases, a dentist will prescribe a special anti-germ mouth rinse containing a chemical called chlorhexidine to help control plaque and gingivitis. These are the only mouth rinses approved for treating periodontal disease.
