Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease occurs in 3-5% of men, proceeds without pronounced symptoms of inflammation. Bone dissolves slowly. Signs of gingivitis is almost not observed. The roots of the teeth gradually become bare, so that your teeth look elongated. Bare the roots of teeth sharply react to exposure to cold, heat and chemical irritants.

Often in patients with periodontal disease on the cervix of the teeth, especially the front, there are wedge-shaped defects. In the final stage resorbed alveolus dental disease, especially gingivitis. Teeth become loose and fall out. Periodontal disease occurs in different ways. . In some patients, the process develops gradually, not accompanied by significant subjective impressions.

Most of the teeth preserved, only a few teeth to be removed. With a favorable clinical course chewing function is not disrupted for a long time (10-15 years). Contribute to this healthy lifestyles, the rational mode of work and rest, good nutrition, a satisfactory general condition, a thorough and regular oral health care. But in most cases, the disease takes an aggressive course, often escalates. With each relapse (re-manifestation of signs of illness) are deteriorating diseased teeth, in the pathological process involved the adjacent areas of periodontium. Contribute to exacerbation of periodontal disease fatigue, colds, flu, and dysfunction of the digestive, nervous and mental stress. The inflammatory process may be exacerbated during periods of menstruation, pregnancy, menopause, and also in diseases of the genitourinary system, etc. The patient becomes nervous and irritable. The thought of imminent premature loss of teeth they oppress. Feeling bad breath, they tend not to come into contact with people avoid contact, that is, change their stereotype. This is adversely affecting a person's character, his relationships and health. Periodontal disease may be accompanied by various complications. Frequent acute lead to the development of single or multiple abscesses, pulpitis (inflammation of the dental pulp), periodontitis (periodontal inflammation), periostitis (inflammation of the periosteum) and sometimes inflammation of the jaw bone, etc. Poor chewing food caused the defeat of the teeth, ingestion of pus from the periodontal purulent cavities and colonization by this microbe stomach, gall bladder, intestines lead to inflammation of the mucous membrane of the stomach, disruption of other digestive organs. From periodontal pockets of bacteria can enter through the respiratory tract in the bronchi and lungs and cause them to fester. Purulent lesions in periodontal pockets and breakdown products of tissues can absorbed into the lymph and blood vessels and cause poisoning of the whole organism. In this case, patients notice a headache, malaise, fever. Purulent form of periodontal disease sometimes accompanied by diseases of the heart (endocarditis), kidney, bladder, inflammation of the joints, etc. Very often these complications aggravates the course of the disease in people with lowered immunity.
