How to prevent and treat periodontitis

In this appearance-oriented society, almost no one does not pay attention to his or her appearance. Especially when they have a loved one, they want to show their perfect self in front of the other person. These people often have high requirements for the beauty of their teeth. Even so, dental diseases will continue to bother us. So how should periodontitis be prevented and treated? Let me tell you about it today.

Periodontitis has been defined by medicine as the third largest killer threatening human health after cancer and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and is also the "number one killer" of oral health. Some early symptoms of periodontitis also become the main characteristics of the deterioration of oral "sub-health".

Western medicine treatment is generally divided into four stages:

The first stage is the basic treatment stage, which aims to select conventional treatment methods for periodontal disease, eliminate or control clinical inflammation and bite pathogenic factors, including oral self-cleaning, removal of teeth with poor prognosis and unfavorable restoration, supragingival cleaning, subgingival scaling to remove plaque and tartar, selection of antibacterial drugs to control inflammation, bite adjustment, etc.

The second stage is periodontal surgery and fixation of loose teeth.

The third stage is permanent restorative treatment, which is usually performed 2-3 months after surgery.

The fourth stage is the review and re-treatment stage, which is conducted every six months and includes checking plaque control, health education, and X-ray examinations to further formulate a treatment plan.
