Smoking and Periodontal Disease[downey dentist] Understand the Dangers Surprising as it may sound, many smokers need to be made more aware of the dangers of tobacco use. In fact, just 29 percent of smokers say they believe themselves to be at an above-average risk for heart attack compared with their nonsmoking peers, according to a study published by the Journal of the American Medical Association in March of 1999. Obviously, while information about the medical problems associated with smoking such as lung disease, cancer, heart disease and low-birth-weight infants is widely available, many smokers seem to have tuned out. If you are a smoker who is concerned about the effects smoking can have on your health, congratulations! By accessing information about the negative impacts of tobacco use, you are taking the first step toward quitting. To increase awareness of the dangers of smoking, the American Cancer Society sponsors the Great American Smokeout every year in November. Americans are encouraged to quit smoking for a day or to encourage someone else to quite for a day. The idea is to help someone be smoke-free for a day in hopes of motivating that person to quit forever. The American Academy of Periodontology wants you to understand yet another good reason to quit: Tobacco use is harmful to oral health. Time to Quit In conjunction with the Great American Smokeout, the American Academy of Periodontology hopes to help educate the public about one specific threat to smokers periodontal disease ...

Please do not brush the treated area the night of your treatment. After the first night, brush all teeth thoroughly 2x/day for 2 minutes with your electric toothbrush. Use the Chlorhexidine rinse twice daily for 60 seconds. Use this rinse until the bottle is completely gone. Dont worry if the top of your tongue turns black, or your teeth appear stained! This is a side effect of the rinse and should go away after you stop using it. Well also make sure to clean the stain off your teeth at your next appointment. It is important that you do NOT waterpik for 7 days where the gum antibiotic was placed. The waterpik could dislodge the antibiotic prematurely and your gums wont heal as they should if this occurs. After the 7 day waiting period, start using your waterpik everyday. Be sure to hold the waterpik between each tooth for 5 seconds, getting the front and back ...

New Periodontal Treatment Technology Periowave™ Photodynamic Disinfection(PDD) is new technology in the fight against bacteria and virulence factors associated with periodontal diseases. Periowave™ is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that combines advanced non-thermal diode laser technology with wavelength-matched photosensitizers to target the pathogens that scaling and root planing leave behind. Clinical studies have shown that Periowave in conjunction with SRP can significantly increase CAL, reduce bleeding, and reduce probing depths relative to SRP alone!

Boston Dentist: Gum Disease Treatment Back Bay Dental Care The American Dental Association says that over 75-80% of all adults have or will have some form of gum disease. Gum disease, or more correctly called "periodontal disease", is a bacterial infection in the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It can be divided into several categories. The first stage is called "gingivitis" and is characterized by gum tissue that is red, puffy, and bleeds easily when touched with a toothbrush, floss or dental instrument. The second, third, and fourth stages are initial, moderate, and advanced "periodontal disease", respectively. These stages are different from gingivitis because the infection has destroyed the bone supporting the teeth, causing eventual tooth loss. The treatment is more involved at these stages, usually consisting of a special cleaning with anesthesia and sometimes gum surgery. 21 Bay State Road Boston, MA 02215 617 247-9966

periodontal pocket formation Periodontal disease is an infection of the tissues that support your teeth. Your gum tissue is not attached to the teeth as high as it may seem. There is a very shallow v-shaped crevice called a sulcus between the tooth and gums. Periodontal diseases attack just below the gum line in the sulcus, where they cause the attachment of the tooth and its supporting tissues to break down. As the tissues are damaged, the sulcus develops into a pocket: generally, the more severe the disease, the greater the depth of the pocket.

Periodontal Laser Therapy (LANAP) What is Laser Periodontal Therapy™? Laser Periodontal Therapy™ is a laser based technique for the treatment of periodontal disease using the PerioLase Laser. Fear of periodontal treatment vanishes when patients find out no scalpel or sutures will be used. Patient friendly laser treatment gets patients to agree to the treatment they need and continue with the follow-up care that is prescribed. Our office is one of the first in the area to offer Laser Periodontal Therapy™ for the treatment of gingivitis and/or periodontitis. Following are commonly asked questions about this technology. How does it work? Tartar, associated with inflamed and bleeding gums, is removed form the root surface of the tooth using an ultrasonic scaler and small instruments. Then, a small amount of light energy from a laser is directed through a tiny fiber, which is gently placed between the gum and tooth. This light energy removes a tiny amount of diseased tissue and aids in reducing the bacteria associated with the disease. After the area is thoroughly cleaned, the body can heal the area naturally. Does it hurt? Although the procedure itself can be virtually painless, we may anesthetize the area for the patients comfort. In this way we can precisely direct the laser for treatment. Post-procedure discomfort is typically minimal and of short duration. How long does it take? Initial treatment is focused on scaling and the use of small instruments to remove the tartar. Then, the laser portion of the ...

LANAP Patient Education - FDA Approved Laser Periodontal Surgery for Gum Disease - Traditionally, moderate to advanced periodontitis, or gum disease, was treated with surgery involving cutting, stitching, and significant recovery time. This invasive approach was often painful, and presented roadblocks for patients taking medications such as blood thinners, certain cardiac medications, and other systemic medications that would be contraindicated for traditional periodontal surgery. Although traditional procedures have been successful, our state-of-the-art approach to the treatment of periodontal (gum) disease is more conservative and predictable. With LANAP, we are now able to improve the periodontal health of our patients for many years in a much less invasive way. LANAP enables a qualified periodontist to treat gum disease much more quickly and easily, with no cutting, stitching, bleeding, or pain. Not all lasers are FDA-approved for this procedure. LANAP is the only FDA approved protocol for the treatment of periodontal disease. Results have included new connective tissue and bone regeneration. LANAP also provides a complete sterilization of the pockets in the gum tissue surrounding the teeth by eliminating all the destructive bacteria that cause periodontal or gum disease.

Treating Periodontal Disease with the Perio Protect Method™ - What is periodontal disease and how does it develop?

Shelby Michigan Dentist: Periodontal surgery recession repair using a grafting procedure Dr. Antolak who practices in Shelby Twp. Michigan provides many different services, avoiding returned trips to specialists. In fact it is appreciated by his patients that they can have all of their care done in one location. Periodontal surgery is no exception. Recession of the gum tissues takes place from either aggressive tooth brushing, thin gum tissue that is prone to shrinking or the bone loss associated with periodontal (gum) disease. The gum tissues in the mouth provide an impermeable barrier for the bacteria to get into the bone and blood steam. The attached tissues next to the teeth provide this barrier and if it is lost there are is a risk of infection and tooth loss. This video shows a grafting procedure that is used to create more of this barrier tissue.
