Periodontics

Periodontics is a dental specialty dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease and the tissues that support the teeth.

The most common signs of this condition are inflammation, redness, and bleeding of the gums when brushing, as well as gum recession, tooth mobility or spacing, longer-looking teeth, bad breath

It is very important to diagnose and treat these conditions as soon as possible, as their progression leads to destruction of the bone that supports the teeth. For this reason, it is essential that you seek advice from Dr. María Rodríguez Rodríguez if you have noticed any of these signs.

We will see you to assess your case with no obligation at our clinic in Carabanchel.

Frequently asked questions

How is it detected?

One of the most common and early manifestations is gingivitis, an inflammatory process of the gums, which become irritated, swollen, and red, and may cause pain and bleeding when brushing, with purulent discharge. In addition, it is common to have halitosis or bad breath.

Gingivitis that is not properly treated can develop into periodontal disease, which may cause premature tooth loss.

The most common cause of gingivitis is poor or inadequate oral hygiene that fails to remove all tartar.

How can it be prevented?

Proper oral hygiene, having a scale and polish or regular dental cleaning as indicated by Dr. Tomás Hernán, together with a meticulous review of your oral health, can help you prevent this condition.
