Before the periodontology treatment, the doctor and the patient meet through an interpreter. Listening to the patient's wishes and expectations, the doctor prepares an operation plan.
If there is an infection in the gums before the periodontology treatment is started, this infection should be removed. This is possible by cleaning the calculus and the root to which the calculus is attached. This process is called initial therapy. During the initial treatment, there are procedures such as the treatment of caries, the renewal of fillings, and the correction of prostheses.
In the second stage of the periodoniological treatment, a gingival treatment method preferred by the doctor is applied according to the patient's gingival condition. These methods are gingivectomy, flap operation and mucogingival surgery. After these types of surgical interventions, the patient's regular controls are provided.
Symptoms such as bleeding in the gums while brushing your teeth or eating, loosening of the teeth, gum recession are the harbingers of gum problems.
