Periodontitis is one of the most common dental diseases, affecting millions of people worldwide. This does not mean that there is no need to worry about it since it can cause irreversible damage.
What is periodontal disease?
It is an infectious and inflammatory disease related mainly to the gums, but which actually affects the soft tissues, ligaments, and bones that support the teeth. In some cases, it can be so aggressive that it can cause the loss of teeth, so the risk is quite high. In any case, this depends on several factors, it is usually directly related to the accumulation of tartar on dental surfaces.
In this article we will focus mainly on periodontitis; what are the symptoms, how to treat it, and everything we can do at Champion dental clinic to help you face this process. Remember that it may sound like an intimidating disease, but here we have everything you need to treat it and leave your teeth and gums like new.
The symptoms; how to spot it
There is a state before Periodontitis, in which the bone tissue surrounding the teeth is not yet affected, being limited to a superficial inflammation of the gums. This previous moment is Gingivitis, and it is much easier to treat since you catch it when it is just starting. An easy way to detect is when you start to notice redness and bleeding from them, either with brushing or spontaneously.
It is advisable to be aware of these symptoms and go to the dental clinic as quickly as possible since preventive treatment consisting of regular professional prophylaxis and following basic oral hygiene instructions is usually sufficient to control this disorder.
The main symptoms once Periodontitis is reached are:
● Bleeding gums.
● Red and swollen gums.
● Receding gums.
● Pus on the gums.
● Halitosis (bad breath).
● Tooth mobility.
As you can see, they are similar to those of gingivitis but a little more advanced, and the fact of receding gums, bad breath, and mobility of the teeth is added. The ideal is always to treat this disease before the mobility of the teeth since it is difficult to prevent teeth from falling out when they are already moving.
Treatment of Periodontitis
At Champion dental clinic we have a Periodontist Dentist, who is the specialist in performing treatments for Periodontitis. This makes your treatment the right one and the best you can receive against this disease.
Once the extent of the disease has been assessed, the basic treatment is carried out by removing the accumulated tartar deposits and performing a deep cleaning, below the level of the gums, around each of the teeth.
The patient must be aware of the importance of prevention, adopting good oral hygiene habits, and avoiding tobacco consumption. Otherwise, the treatment may fail.
There are two main types of treatment, non-surgical and surgical. Here at Champion dental clinic, we can do whatever you need, although remember that the recommendation of the professional dentist is always followed.
Non-surgical treatment
On the one hand, scaling and root planing are found. The objective of this treatment is to eliminate the bacterial plaque and tartar that accumulates on the surface of the teeth.
On the other hand, there is pharmacological treatment. This depends on each case according to the periodontal and general health status that each patient presents. Mouthwashes and sometimes antibiotics are used to help control bacterial infection.
Surgical treatments
There are different forms of surgical treatment for this disease that can be performed at Champion dental clinic. These treatments include:
● Gum recession treatment.
● Bony periodontal surgery.
● Soft tissue grafts.
● Bone tissue grafts.
Again, the professional will be in charge of seeing which is the best treatment in each case. Remember that they are made with care and by professionals with years of experience, so do not be afraid to perform dental surgery. At Champion dental clinic we will make sure that everything goes well.

Expected results: how is your life after treatment
Periodontal treatments require individual monitoring adapted to each case and patient to avoid relapse and the reappearance of symptoms. Periodic maintenance visits are essential to check the evolution of the treatment and eventually eliminate new deposits of tartar and bacterial plaque.
Here at Champion dental clinic, you can carry out regular check-ups by a specialist. Correct daily dental cleaning is vital for oral and general health, even in other diseases beyond periodontal diseases.
A visit to your dentist is always recommended as often as indicated, at least once a year. This can help you prevent different types of dental diseases.
You should brush your teeth after every meal, not just two or three times a day as some people think, whenever you finish eating you should brush your teeth.
Also, use mouthwash and floss daily. Sometimes brushing alone isn't enough. This is also a great option if you spend many hours away from home, you can always carry mouthwash and dental floss in your purse or backpack. You will make sure that your teeth are always good.
The final recommendations are to change the brush at least every 3 months since otherwise the bristles are damaged and lose the effective power they had at the beginning.
Avoid smoking and moderate alcohol consumption to avoid any type of dental disease. This must be accompanied by everything that we were mentioning above.
