FAQ on Periodontics
How can I prevent periodontal disease?
To prevent periodontal disease, it is essential to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth after every meal and using dental floss daily. Additionally, regularly visit your dentist for check-ups and follow the recommendations of our periodontal specialists.
What is the difference between gingivitis and periodontitis?
Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums that is usually reversible with good oral hygiene and professional dental cleanings. Periodontitis, on the other hand, is a more advanced form of periodontal disease that affects the supporting tissues of the teeth and can cause permanent damage if not adequately treated.
How long does the recovery process take after periodontal treatment?
The recovery time can vary depending on the type of treatment and each patient’s response. Initially, initial recovery is expected to last a few days to a week. Still, the complete healing process can take several weeks or even months.
How many visits will be necessary to complete my periodontal treatment?
The number of required visits will depend on the severity of your case and the treatment plan established by our specialists. We can provide a more accurate estimate of the required visits during your initial consultation.
