periodontal treatment

Periodontosis is a pathological, inflammatory breakdown of the periodontium caused by bacteria. The first stage of the disease is called gingivitis (inflammation of the gums). If adequate preventive treatment is not given at this point, the inflammation will progress. The inflamed gums lose adhesion to the tooth and gum pockets form. At the same time, the anchorage of the teeth in the jaw is weakened by the degradation of the jawbone.

Periodontitis treatment ensures your healthy smile


After a precise diagnosis, a treatment plan that is suitable for the individual case is determined in order to eliminate the inflammation. Following this therapy, continued regular follow-up care (recall) is necessary to prevent the periodontitis from flaring up again. The treatment of periodontitis is particularly important. Because it has now been proven that the risk of some internal diseases increases significantly or exacerbates the course of existing chronic diseases if periodontitis has been present for a long time and is not treated appropriately. These diseases include, for example, heart attack, stroke and diabetes.

PROXPHYLAXE

Prophylaxis is the most important focus of our dental practice. Because what could be nicer and better than keeping your own teeth healthy for a lifetime. That is why we want to help you to achieve this ideal goal if possible. In our prophylaxis area, you will be looked after and cared for by our specially trained and continuously trained specialists. They work according to precisely defined processes that are always based on the latest dental research.

Professional tooth cleaning is part of the prophylaxis

The central and most important measure of any modern preventive concept to avoid caries and inflammatory periodontitis (periodontitis) is professional tooth cleaning. This includes the thorough removal of all bacterial deposits (plaque) above and below the gum line. Bacterial inflammation of the periodontium can also have negative effects on the whole body. We work exclusively with experienced, regional master laboratories

ENDODONTICS

Endodontics are treatment of the diseases of the dental nerve and is often associated with very severe toothache. Acute or chronic inflammation of the dental pulp or the periodontium can be the result of an endodontic disease. Therefore, if you have a toothache, you should go to the dentist right away to rule out or treat a root canal disease. With endodontics, many teeth can be saved today that were still extracted as a standard procedure just a few years ago. The most common endodontic treatments are root canal treatments. Root canals are very successful these days Modern endodontics delivers predictable results and success rates. A professionally performed root canal treatment can save the patient toothache and permanently preserve teeth treated in this way with a success rate of over 90 percent.

Aesthetic dentistry

Do you have tooth position deviations, rotations and tilting of teeth in the visible area? Do the teeth gap or are they too small? Many irregularities can be corrected with modern plastics, thin ceramic shells or ceramic crowns. In many cases, a dental technician changes the given situation on a plaster model with wax beforehand in such a way that you get an idea of ​​what changes can be made to your teeth.

DENTURES

Thanks to modern materials and customized technologies, even large defects can now be built up again over a long period of time without any discerning differences to the neighboring teeth. In modern dentistry, implants, artificial tooth roots made of titanium or zirconium oxide, improve the patient's comfort. After the artificial tooth root has healed in the jaw, further treatment with dentures takes place in our practice.

Bleaching

A radiant smile with bright teeth is something special! It represents vitality, youth and beauty. For many of us, teeth have darkened over time due to external circumstances such as cigarette smoke, tea, coffee, or internal stains (dye penetration, tooth nerve receding). Even dead teeth often lose their light colour. Such teeth can achieve a lighter color with gentle, proven non-damaging procedures. A tooth cleaning precedes this tooth whitening. Targeted use of bleaching agents can lead to a lighter tooth color.
