Periodontology
Periodontology (Gum Diseases and Treatment) is the main science of the dentistry department. It takes teeth, which are very important for human health, as its main subject. Oral and dental health is very important. Since dental health directly affects the health of the body, you should pay attention to your dental health.
The first factor of nutrition is the jaw and teeth. Tooth roots are embedded in the bones of the jaw. If you do not pay attention to oral care, inflammation occurs here. If the necessary precautions and treatment are not taken, you may face health problems such as osteoporosis and tooth loss. For such health problems, you should see a periodontologist, a specialist in Periodontology.
The branch of science that deals with the diseases and treatment of the bone surrounding the gums and roots is called periodontology. Since the subject is gum and bone diseases, it enters the field of dentistry. The tissues surrounding your teeth consist of both hard and soft structures. These tissues are very important for your oral and dental health. Any discomfort in this area will also affect your body health in general.

Problems such as inflammation of the gums and osteoporosis are the main subjects of periodontology. The most appropriate treatment method is used to save the tooth and eliminate inflammation.
The disease that occurs with the destruction of teeth and the tissues supporting the teeth is called periodontitis. It is an inflammatory disease. This inflammation has progressed to the jawbone. The main cause of this disease is bacterial plaque.
Gum bleeding is usually the first symptom of periodontal diseases. If you have blood in your saliva when you brush your teeth, you may have gum disease. With this symptom, bad breath and sensitivity in the teeth can also be seen, in this case it is useful to go to a periodontologist.
What Does
a Periodontologist Mean?
Dentists who have completed their doctorate in periodontology and received their specialization and working in this branch are called periodontologists (periodontist). All dentists can identify periodontal diseases. They can treat those in the early stages. But advanced ones can be treated by periodontists.
Dentists either maintain it or refer it to a periodontist, depending on the course of the disease, after the first examination and oral x-ray. With the early diagnosis of the disease and the right treatment, your teeth will be saved and you will regain your oral health.
When dental care is not done correctly and completely, bacterial plaque forms on the teeth due to reasons such as tobacco/cigarette use, genetics, drug use, and disease. When these plaques are not cleaned, gum recession occurs first. Bacteria move towards the roots of the teeth. Tooth roots become unable to be supported by the gingiva. It starts to shake and eventually falls.
The periodontologist first measures the length of the gingival pocket between the tooth and the gingiva with the "periodontal probe" instrument of the patient who comes for examination. Performs periodontal examination. He or she will order X-rays to evaluate the bone tissue around the teeth. Determines the treatment method according to the films and examination results.
