Healthy gums are the foundation for healthy teeth, because only when the tooth bed is stable can teeth be preserved in the long term. Periodontitis, the chronic inflammation of the supporting structures of the teeth, is one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults. It often begins subtly and can go unnoticed for a long time.
In our practice, we use targeted diagnostics to detect early changes and treat periodontitis gently and effectively over the long term. With modern examination and treatment methods, as well as our expertise in periodontology, we can halt the progression of the disease. Our goal is to preserve your teeth – and with them, your quality of life.
Dentist Dr. Veselina Tzvetanova relies on individualized treatment concepts and close follow-up during and after therapy. For us, periodontology is not only acute treatment, but also prevention and aftercare.
Once gum tissue has receded, it usually does not grow back completely. However, targeted periodontitis treatment can stop the inflammation and stabilize the condition of the gums. In some cases, surgical reconstruction is also possible to restore aesthetics.
Using gentle measurement methods such as the Periodontal Screening Index (PSI) and digital imaging, we regularly check the condition of your gums. This allows us to detect the first signs of inflammation before they can cause major damage.
In cases of periodontitis, we thoroughly clean the gum pockets and remove both hard and soft deposits below the gum line. We use modern ultrasound technology and, if desired, local anesthesia for greater comfort.
Since periodontitis is often influenced by bacterial deposits and individual risk factors, we also help you improve your oral hygiene and provide practical tips for at-home prevention.
After active treatment, regular follow-up is essential to avoid relapses. We provide individually tailored supportive periodontitis therapy (SPT) to keep your oral health stable in the long term. This includes, for example, regular professional teeth cleanings.
