Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the tissues surrounding the tooth root that develops as a result of infection, advanced caries, or trauma. Without timely treatment, the process may lead to destruction of bone tissue, cyst formation, and even tooth loss. Modern therapeutic methods make it possible to effectively eliminate inflammation and preserve the tooth.
When is treatment of periodontitis required?
- In the presence of gingival bleeding during tooth brushing, food intake, or spontaneous bleeding.
- In cases of gingival redness, swelling, and tenderness.
