Periodontal regeneration is a technique that allows the regeneration of tissues lost around the tooth due to periodontitis (pyorrhea). The doctor is a specialist in this field and uses minimally invasive techniques. Sometimes biomaterials are needed to stabilize the blood clot from which regeneration begins. It is important to maintain excellent oral hygiene and follow scheduled appointments.

Are you sure you need to have the tooth removed?

Nowadays there are many new minimally invasive techniques that allow the maintenance of teeth that were once extracted.

Periodontal disease is a disease that affects the tooth support system and is caused by a bacterial infection that acts on a predisposed individual. One of the first manifestations is bleeding gums that is evident when touching the gums. There may be bad breath, a sensation of tooth mobility or teeth that move.

An intraoral x-ray shows how much bone has been lost around the tooth. The lost bone can in many cases be recovered. The first step is proper personal and professional oral hygiene.

The dentist and/or hygienist will perform the survey (with a graduated instrument the loss of attachment around the tooth is measured by gently inserting it into the gum) and will check the condition of the gums and the loss of periodontal attachment.

Eliminating the bacteria forms the basis for the attachment to reform. In very advanced cases, surgery is performed. Dr. Grusovin is a specialist in periodontitis treatment and in particular in regenerative surgery. The surgical approach is minimally invasive thanks to the use of microsurgical instruments and optical magnifiers that allow working by limiting access to the minimum. The post-operative period is minimal and with a single intervention, in many cases the extraction and insertion of implants are avoided.
