Periodontology

Periodontology is a branch of dentistry that studies the health of teeth and surrounding tissues. In this field, the diagnosis and treatment of gum diseases and the maintenance of health after the disease is an important priority. Gum diseases cover a wide range of conditions, starting from simple gingivitis and progressing to the loss of teeth and loss of jaw bones. Symptoms of these diseases include swelling, reddening, bleeding, and recession of the gums; tooth lengthening; bad breath; displacement, spacing, and eventual loss of teeth. Bleeding gums is an important symptom that can be easily recognized by patients and can occur during tooth brushing when consuming hard foods or spontaneously.
These diseases are usually chronic and may go unnoticed for a long time due to the absence of pain. If there are symptoms such as bleeding and enlargement of the gums, tartar formation, gingival recession, loose teeth, bad taste, and bad breath, a periodontologist should be consulted. The main aim of periodontal treatment is to preserve seemingly hopelessly unhealthy teeth in the mouth. Depending on the type and severity of the disease, various treatment methods are applied.

These may include procedures such as dental hygiene education, scaling, root surface smoothing, and regenerative, reconstructive, and mucogingival operations. In addition, periodontal treatment also includes gingival aesthetics for individuals with a high smile line. The type and severity of the disease, the patient’s habits, the level of oral hygiene, treatment planning, and the patient’s compliance with the treatment are among the important factors affecting the success of the treatment.
