Fresno Periodontal Plastic Surgeon: An Introduction to the Specialty.
A dentist is commonly referred to as a “tooth doctor” due to their primary focus. The term “dentist” even originated from the French word for tooth. When seeking a professional who specializes in the care of tissues around your teeth such as gums and jawbone, a periodontist (derived from the Latin term for “around the tooth”) is the ideal choice. These experts receive extensive training in periodontal treatments of various types, including at least three additional years of education directly focused on these tissues.
- Dental implant placement
- Gum grafting
- Oral surgery
- Gum disease treatment
Dental Implant Placement
Dental implants are created to be a replacement for natural teeth, however they are not identical to natural teeth. Rather than treating a tooth, the dentist carrying out the procedure is managing periodontal tissue around the dental implant. This is significant not just during placement, but also in the long-term recovery of your jawbone around the implant. The objective is to ensure optimal recuperation and avoid gum recession around the implant as it does not facilitate the same gum attachment as natural teeth, although metal-free dental implants provide a better alternative.
A periodontist, who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum diseases, is the most suitable professional for placing the dental implant. They are equipped with the skills and knowledge to ensure the implant’s longevity by providing proper maintenance and care. It is essential to choose a periodontist to handle your dental implant needs for optimal results.
Gum Grafting
Gum tissue has a restricted capacity to recuperate. In the event of receding gums caused by periodontal disease, tobacco use, or other factors, regrowth of gum tissue is not possible. However, a gum graft may be employed to bring back your gums to their previous, healthy, and youthful look.
A periodontist is skilled in grafting tissue from other areas of your mouth, ensuring the gum graft appears aesthetically pleasing, heals effectively, and maintains its health.
Oral Surgery
Dental implants and gum grafting are oral surgeries that are often performed by a specialist known as a periodontist. However, there are numerous procedures that fall under the category of “oral surgery,” each with its own unique considerations and requirements. Whether you are in need of a tooth extraction, oral cancer treatment, or jaw surgery, it’s important to work with a qualified professional who can guide you through the process and ensure optimal results. So if you’re considering oral surgery of any kind, don’t hesitate to reach out to a dental specialist today!
- Oral cancer biopsies
- Tooth extractions, including wisdom teeth extractions
- Bone grafting
- Surgical gum disease treatment
Periodontists are highly specialized dental practitioners, whose extensive training and expertise in complex treatment procedures exceed those of most general dentists. Their skills and knowledge encompass a wide range of advanced dental procedures, making them the go-to professionals for comprehensive and effective treatment options.
Treatment for Periodontitis
Periodontal disease is a condition where microbes or other microorganisms invade the space around your teeth. The harm inflicted by these microbes, as well as your body’s response to them, breaks down the gum tissue and the bones around your teeth. This can lead to tooth mobility and even the loss of teeth.
A periodontist can frequently intervene to halt the progression of periodontal disease. Subsequently, bone grafting and gum grafting may be utilized to repair the damage so that your teeth are as aesthetically pleasing and stable as if no disease had ever been present.
