Periodontitis: Gum Disease

Considering the various known oral diseases. Periodontitis is the most common issue in oral healthcare and when left unattended it can easily damage the entire nature of the teeth.

Periodontitis, also known as Gum Disease is a condition in which inflammation of the soft tissues or Gums and as a result tooth loss can occur. Gums act as a supporting structure for the teeth and when it gets degraded it loses the capability to support the teeth. 

Causes of Periodontitis:

• It happens when a bacterial organism and plaque develop around the tooth, and the insusceptible framework dispatches a response.
• Smoking expands the danger of gum infection and of treatment not working.
• Prevalently gram-negative anaerobic bacterial organisms are the main reseasons for the occurrence of the Plaque and the various bacterial types are: A. actinomycetemcomitans, P. gingivalis, P. intermedia, B. forsythus, C. rectus, E. nodatum, P. micros, S. intermedius and Treponema sp.
• Poor Dental Hygiene and improper Food habit can also cause Periodontitis.

Periodontitis can also be considered as a Chronic disease if no proper treatment care is done. The various procedures and medications available for the diagnosis of Periodontitis are:

The first and foremost treatment method is self-medication which is following proper oral hygiene and food habits.

• Since the root cause for the disease is the formation of plaque due to the chemical activity of the Bacteria, antimicrobial mouth rinse, such as chlorhexidine can be used to eliminate the presence of Bacterial Inflammation in the teeth. This also includes the usage of antibiotics Gels and Enzyme suppressants.
• Advanced periodontitis treatment methods such as Flap surgery and Grafts usage are also followed to improve the oral condition from the Gum disease.

Title: Autogenous teeth bone graft in implantology

Abstract: Each year thousands of extracted teeth are considered as clinical waste, but today, these teeth can be successfully used for guided bone regeneration as an autogenous teeth bone graft in many cases of bone loss.

The different characteristics of the dentin make it a perfect material for bone regeneration and structural and functional restoration of bone defects allowing implants to be successfully placed in situations of bone resorption.

By following a certain protocol of tooth grinding, dentin particles are obtained and can be grafted into the alveoli, and alveolar bone defects or even as sinus fillers. Thus an extracted tooth should no longer be considered as environmental waste as it represents today a valuable treatment alternative with very positive clinical and histological feedback.

About the Author:

Fatima Zohra Chigara is a final year dentistry student at the Algiers University. She works as an intern at a university hospital and is also pursuing an internship at a private cabinet specialized in implantology. She’s currently writing her thesis about guided bone regeneration with a prime focus on autogenous bone grafts. Fatima Zohra is part of the dentistry department scientific club Myrrhe and is involved with raising awareness about oral health and dental disease prevention as an active member of the association.

Innovation and Implementation in the field of Pediatric Dentistry

Dental care from infant age is a must in order to maintain their future dental health. This branch in dentistry can involve both clinical and research studies. A pediatric dentist helps the child to cover all his/her needs from the infant to the teen. Thus, unusual eating habits, improper tooth structures, and Milk tooth during their childhood can be improved by consulting the Paediatric Dentist regularly to avoid improper alignment of the Teeth which may bring out facial discomfort for the individual. This also includes educating the parents about nutritional diets for the children. Pediatric Dentistry also includes Oral healthcare for babies who are below 36months.

Various painless treatment procedures and non-invasive techniques are also preferred for the babies to lower the risk of Decay issues in the children when they grow older.

The main aim of the treatment involves the Prevention of Tooth Decay, Dental Trauma in young age and Tooth development and Alterations.

To add more Pediatric dentistry also paves the way for the development of Dental Implants which are designed majorly for kids and infants. These implants remove the possibility of cases where crown discomforts occur in children and it is furthermore biocompatible.

Trends in Pediatric Dentistry:

• Silver diamine fluoride which has stepped up as a one of the trusted and easy procedure for the Pediatrics where the usage of any clinical sharp tools are totally eliminated. 

• Transillumination is an improved diagnostic method where a ray of high-intensity light is passed through the teeth to see what’s going on inside and between them.

• Painless Injection systems and techniques allow the dentists to provide more reliable and simple treatment causing any discomfort for the infants.

Above mentioned are the few trends which are commonly followed and there are various other treatment methods that are available in Pediatric Dentistry.
