Currently, periodontal disease is very much widespread among all age groups. According to the statistics, about 98% of adults and more than 85% of children are exposed to this or that periodontal gum tissue's disease.Such a disease as periodontitis is characterized either by some parts of tissues lesion or by the whole periodontium defeat. Periodontitis can be of two types: dystrophic and inflammatory. The second type is much more common – it is met in 90 - 98% of cases.
If we compare such diseases as gingivitis and periodontal disease, we will see that they are always interrelated. We will remind that inflammation, as a process, occurs first in gingival tissues, and then the involvement of a tooth, gum and alveolar bone (periodontal) ligament happens. .
Sometimes, by mistake, periodontal disease is takes as alveolysis - the process of jaw bone atrophy which passes without any signs of inflammation. Periodontitis is always accompanied by inflammatory process, which is treatable only if the patient referred to the dentist in a timely way.
During periodontal disease a continuous process of jawbones atrophy without any inflammation manifestation and development is occurring. Periodontal disease often appears and manifests in cases if a patient has some chronic diseases of his organism. The main reasons for periodontal disease appearing
Periodontal disease lesion and development can be connected with some injuries (mechanical or chemical). This disease can also start from the constant gums' irritation by sharp fillings edges or awkwardly produced dental crowns. Sometimes reasons for periodontitis appearing and development can be connected with common condition of patient organism and problems with health.
Methods and ways of treatment
There are radical methods of dealing with fast-passing periodontal disease – surgery. But sometimes more conservative methods, such as mechanical gums pockets cleaning with metal instruments (curettage) help, are used. Today for process of dental cleaning different instruments, which are working with ultrasonic waves, are applied. Both of these two types of cleaning have serious drawbacks. The problem is that during the process of cleaning deep gum tissues and tooth surface in the vicinity of teeth roots can be traumatized.
It must be known that during manual cleaning healthy tissues of periodontal space are frequently touched. This happens because the periodontist simply works blind. If the process of cleaning is carried out by means of ultrasonic units, it allows to remove the plaque even from the deep places of gingival tooth pocket. Vibration of ultrasonic instrument and its heating sometimes lead to painful sensations. Ultrasound scanner can handle the gum pocket around the tooth on a depth which is not exceeding 5 mm. With the German apparatus VECTOR appearing in our clinic, there are no more doubts in effectiveness of ultrasonic periodontal disease treatment are left, because thanks to its unique design the main problem disappeared: the problem of cleaning tool chaotic beats.
Ultrasonic vibrations are transmitted to the instrument through resonant circuit. Uniform oscillations are appearing in the instrument, which allows him to make movements strictly alongside the tooth surface. Gums tissues irritation no longer occurs, and the surface of the tooth root is not destroying. Such an instrument is widely used for periodontitis treatment in those patients who have highly sensitive teeth. Due to the fact that ultrasound penetrates to a depth of 11 millimeters, in many cases it allows to bypass without any surgery.
When the process of reduction of a pocket between the tooth and gum occur, the mixture that contains particles of hydroxyapatite with dimensions of 10 nanometers is fed into the working tool. As a result of their ordered vibration in the ultrasonic field, all deposits below the gum completely remove and the tooth surface polishing. The presence of hydroxyapatite leads to a rapid recovery of the gum tissue after the procedure done.
During the procedure with VECTOT apparatus usage, special instruments, made of composite materials, are obtained. Such instruments help to clean tooth roots and deep-seated attachments of teeth implants. VEFCTOR apparatus is very good in such cases.
Patients easily transfer this kind of treatment with the German apparatus usage because during the procedure there are no uncomfortable feelings. In many cases during such procedures the treatment can be done without any anesthesia.VECTOR apparatus is a true German high quality unit and it is widely used in modern dental clinics. Using such apparatus, it is easily to eliminate the undesirable consequences of the primitive manual handling of teeth pockets, such as, for example, tooth enamel and gum tissues injury.
The high-tech unit with flexible tools and smallest cleaning particles will help to cure periodontal disease in difficult cases, which are traditionally treated with a dental surgery.
