Periodontics treatment at Dental Clinic Da Nang

This treatment addresses periodontal disease, which is a chronic bacterial infection of the gums and underlying jawbone caused by plaque (or tartar). Daily brushing and flossing using proper techniques will help prevent most gum disease.

Gum disease may cause your gums to turn red, swell and even bleed easily. After a prolonged period, the gums will separate from the teeth causing spaces to form, and leading to deterioration of the gum tissues and bone. Left untreated, periodontitis can lead to severe pain and possible tooth loss.

Treatment options include gum surgery, laser treatments, or cleaning of the roots. If teeth are lost permanently to gum disease, dental implants or cosmetic procedures may be performe to replace them.

A root canal procedure is performed to remove infected pulp from the inner portion of the tooth. The pulp consists of nerves and blood vessels that give life to the tooth. During the procedure, only the pulp of the tooth is removed while the tooth remains intact. The canal is the area containing the pulp, and it is cleaned and filled with a non-metallic filling material.
