What is Periodontics?
Periodontics is the specialty of dentistry dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases that affect the supporting tissues of the teeth, such as the gums, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. These diseases, known as periodontal diseases, are mainly caused by bacterial plaque, which accumulates on the teeth and gums, causing inflammation and infection.
When is Periodontics Necessary?
Periodontics is necessary when there are signs of periodontal disease, such as:
- Red, swollen or sensitive gums: Healthy gums are pink and firm. If your gums are red, swollen or sensitive to the touch, it could be a sign of gingivitis, the initial stage of periodontal disease.
- Bleeding gums: Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing is one of the main symptoms of gingivitis and periodontitis.
- Persistent bad breath: Bad breath can be caused by bacteria that accumulate in periodontal pockets, spaces that form between the gum and the tooth when periodontal disease progresses.
- Soft or mobile teeth: Periodontitis can affect the bone and ligaments that support the teeth, causing mobility and, in severe cases, tooth loss.
- Gum recession: Gum recession exposes the root of the tooth, making it more sensitive and vulnerable to cavities and other problems.
