What is periodontal disease?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Periodontal disease, popularly known as \u201epyorrhea,\u201d is a chronic infection of the tissues that support the tooth: the gum, the periodontal ligament, and the alveolar bone. It occurs when bacterial plaque and tartar cause inflammation, leading to bone loss, gum recession, tooth mobility, and, in advanced stages, tooth loss.<\/p>

It is a progressive condition that cannot be cured, but its progression can be stopped. Periodontal disease<\/a> This is a complex condition, and its treatment requires a precise approach. In our clinic, we use two laser wavelengths: the diode laser for disinfection and the Erbium, Chromium:YSGG laser for debridement and removal of granulation tissue. This method allows for deep cleaning of periodontal pockets without the complications of classic surgical techniques.<\/p>

Innovation Medical Center offers TMJ treatments and laser dentistry for laser periodontics, with technology at the 2026 level, making it a leader in Romania in laser dentistry. Innovation Medical Center is an associated center and European partner of Sigmund Freud University Vienna and AALZ Germany, being affiliated with ISLD, which guarantees clinical practices aligned with international academic and scientific standards in laser dentistry and TMJ therapy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

1. Initial Assessment - Digital Periodontal Chart<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Before starting treatment, we perform a complete periodontal charting using a digital probe, which shows us the exact depth of each periodontal pocket. This step is essential for having an objective baseline and for being able to track the progress and effectiveness of the treatment over time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2. Why laser and not flap?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The classical technique involves creating a flap, during which the bone remains temporarily avascular, resulting in approximately 0.5 mm of bone resorption simply from the flap being opened. Reattaching the tissue to the bone and revascularization after the flap takes up to 6 weeks.
With laser treatment, we avoid this step and preserve tissue integrity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The actual treatment begins with the laser.<\/a> diode, used for remote disinfection. Bacteria absorb energy emitted by the laser<\/a> due to the melanin in the epithelium. This allows for deep, controlled, and selective decontamination.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

4. Airflow EMS<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

AirFlow is a prophylaxis procedure that uses a controlled jet of pressurized air, water, and a fine powder of 14 \u00b5m or 40 \u00b5m to effectively remove bacterial plaque, stains, and biofilm from the tooth surface and hard-to-reach areas. It is a gentle, minimally invasive method, which leaves the teeth<\/a> clean and smooth, without affecting enamel or gums.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Next descaling<\/a> deep, made with a special loop designed for removing tartar from hard-to-reach areas. Ultrasonic scaling is a professional dental procedure that uses ultrasonic vibrations to effectively remove tartar, plaque, and subgingival deposits. The water jet associated with the vibrations cools the teeth and removes debris, leaving the tooth surface clean, smooth, and less prone to future plaque accumulation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

6. Debridement and Biofilm Disruption with the Erbium, Chromium:YSGG Laser<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Next, we introduce the Erbium, Chromium:YSGG laser, used for:
Unblock,
biofilm disruption,
granulation tissue removal,
removal of tartar residue through negative pressure exerted inside the bag.
This wavelength is efficiently absorbed by hydroxyapatite and the OH groups in water, giving it a strong bactericidal effect. Affected gingival tissue is precisely removed without additional trauma.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

After cleaning, we apply a biological adhesive that helps the gum reattach to the tooth, prevents food debris from entering, and supports rapid and stable healing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the end, we administer a probiotic in the form of a menthol lozenge, which is held in the oral cavity until it completely dissolves. Do not chew, do not swallow.<\/div>
