The branch of science that examines and treats inflammatory disorders related to the gums and other tissues surrounding the gums is called periodontology. Periodontal diseases are largely caused by bacteria. Therefore, oral and dental hygiene is of great importance to protect against gum problems. Factors such as smoking, drug use, diabetes, stress, nutritional disorders, pregnancy and menopause can also trigger gum diseases. If diagnosed on time and correct intervention is performed, periodontal diseases can be controlled and cured.

First of all, the disease must be diagnosed by a specialist dentist through clinical examination and, if necessary, radiographic data. Correct diagnosis is the most important element for the treatment of the disease.

Afterwards, the patient should be informed about periodontal diseases and necessary advice should be given regarding oral and dental care. Because the cooperation between the patient and the doctor is very important in the successful treatment of gum diseases.

In the second stage, tartar and plaque formed around the teeth are cleaned using special devices. If necessary, a deep cleaning procedure called curettage is also performed in the gum pockets under local anesthesia. These treatments can be supported with antibiotic treatment if the specialist dentist deems it necessary.

In cases where gum diseases are more advanced, surgical procedures are used. In these operations performed under local anesthesia, the inside of the gums and bone surfaces are completely cleared of inflammatory tissues. Periodontal surgery procedures can also be performed with laser applications.

Finally, the entire process is supported by complementary and supportive treatments as the periodontologist deems appropriate.
