Periodontology
|
Dentists did not take sufficient care of the periodontal ligament for a long time. But gum and periodontal diseases are very common and often result in tooth loss and subsequent need for prosthetic rehabilitation.
In modern dentistry periodontal health is given top priority. It has a great impact on general oral health including bad breath and esthetic appearance and influences the long-term stability of dental restorations. Furthermore periodontal inflammations are considered to be a risk or co-factor for many general health issues like cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. We recommend periodical professional oral hygiene sessions. The frequency is depending on the individual disposition to develop periodontal disease as well as on the quality of performed domestic measures.
