Periodontitis disease

Periodontitis is characterized by inflammation of the ligaments of the tooth and bone socket. As a rule, the precursor of periodontitis is pulpitis. After the microorganisms have infected the root of the tooth, they move into the bone socket, along the way inflaming the ligaments of the tooth, on which the tooth itself is attached, as well as the bone socket and the mucous membrane of the gum around the tooth. The X-ray shows the size of the bone socket, as well as the presence of pulp remains in the tooth cavity.

Sometimes it also happens that the affected tooth does not bother its owner and is not visible externally, however, a change in the color of the enamel may indicate the disease. Very often, this situation occurs in the anterior incisors. The causes are different, but the most common of them are: injuries to the tooth or the whole jaw in the affected area.

Before treatment, it is necessary to take an X-ray, as only he will be able to show the dentist what area needs to be treated and how long your tooth has been subjected to a fierce attack of microorganisms.

If this type of disease is started, the risk of developing chronic infections increases, as well as the spread of microbial toxins and their harmful effects on the body as a whole.

In children, periodontitis most often does not cause sharp and severe pain. The development of this disease can be indicated by: dull pain when tapping on the tooth, redness of the gums around the tooth, the formation of a fistula near the root of the diseased tooth. The enamel may darken and turn gray.

There are two types of periodontitis: acute and chronic. They differ significantly from each other both in signs and in the processes of development. Acute periodontitis is quite rare. Unlike chronic periodontitis, acute periodontitis does not show pathological changes on the X-ray. With a chronic disease, the process of prolonged root inflammation will necessarily be visible. When biting, there will definitely be a sharp pain that develops over time into a constant aching.

Acute periodontitis shows the following signs: redness and swelling of the mucous membrane, as well as swelling of the cheek tissues. The lymph nodes may also increase in size. In difficult cases, teeth are removed: the tooth is severely damaged, the presence of deep root caries, the destruction of dentine between the teeth, even the resorption of the roots.

After examining the X-ray, the dentist prescribes a course of treatment in several visits.

The doctor carefully cleans and rinses the canal with special tools and liquids, and then proceeds to seal the root canal. If pain occurs during treatment, the root canals are washed with dental solutions, and they also resort to the use of intracanal electrophoresis of potassium iodide or complex calcium salt. Upon completion of the work, it is mandatory to take a second X-ray to make sure that the inflammation is eliminated.

In the treatment of periodontitis in children of preschool and primary school age, temporary calcium-containing pastes are used for channel sealing. They destroy root canal microbes and have a beneficial effect on root formation (lasting from 6 months to a year). Root growth is observed by a doctor through X-rays. Upon completion of the formation of the tooth root, the canal is filled with permanent pastes (fillings).

There are cases when, after periodontitis treatment, pain occurs again and this disease resumes literally a year later. In this case, the dental surgeon performs a resection (operation) of the root tip. It is performed under local anesthesia. Through a small incision, the surgeon removes the bone tissue above the root, then cuts off the tip of the root and removes the altered tissue on this meta. After some time, healthy bone tissue is formed in the area of surgery. Happy hours and happy days are short-term promotions with increased bonuses at specific times.
