What Is Periodontitis?
Periodontitis is an infection of the bone and gums which surround the teeth. It is caused by the bacteria which normally reside in your mouth. When the bacteria become more numerous than normal, or at a level which your body can not tolerate, an inflammatory reaction takes place and your body begins to destroy the bone which supports the teeth. When the bacteria in your mouth cause bone loss, the gum tissue does not always recede away with the lost bone. Pockets are created which harbor more bacteria and are unreachable with a normal toothbrush and floss. The deep pockets perpetuate the cycle of bone loss. The teeth subsequently become loosened, and if not treated in a timely manner, the teeth can even be lost.
During this process, there can be a foul odor from the mouth, as well as infection (pus) coming from the gums. But this process is usually painless and can sometimes go unnoticed for quite some time until significant symptoms, such as bad breath or loose teeth, indicate a problem.
Nearly all forms of periodontitis are treated initially in a non-surgical manner. This is due to the nature of the cause of periodontitis. As mentioned before, the bacteria that are naturally in the mouth can overpopulate in the form of dental soft plaque and hard calculus if the teeth are not properly cleaned on a sally basis. The bacterial toxins that result can cause destruction and inflammation initially of the soft tissues and gums around the teeth as shown in the picture below. As the disease progresses, the bone is also affected. If the disease is left unchecked, the teeth can potentially be lost. As the bacteria in the form of. plaque is the cause of periodontal disease, their gross removal and reduction is the first step in the termination of this process. This removal takes place in the form of scaling and root planing.
Scaling and Root Planing
Scaling and root planning involves the use of a special ultrasonic device with water irrigation to cleanse the pockets of plaque and debris and remove hard calculus deposits. A local anesthetic is also used to numb the area to be treated in order to reach the base of the pocket without causing you discomfort during treatment. You can also bring along an iPod to help you relax. Usually, the treatment of the entire mouth takes place one quadrant of the mouth treated at a time. This should reduce inflammation and reduce pocket depths by allowing your gum tissue to re-attach to the tooth root surface. It is not unusual to experience some soreness in the treated area. Temperature sensitivity may also be a side-effect of the treatment and should resolve in a few weeks. If it does not, other treatments are available to reduce this sensitivity. Finally, recession after treatment is normal since the swelling for of the infected gum tissue is reduced after therapy.
One week after cleaning the left side
Of vital importance in the treatment of periodontitis is the patient’s responsibility in maintaining proper oral hygiene in between dental visits. Without proper oral hygiene as performed by the patient, the success of therapy is greatly reduced.
Sometimes, scaling and root planning is all that is needed to control the disease process, and a regular schedule of maintenance cleanings is necessary to monitor any change in disease activity through changes in pocket depth. If the pocket depths continue to progress or are not resolved with initial scaling and root planning, surgery may be necessary to correct the loss of bone and resultant pocketing.
Gum diseases have to be evaluated and treated at the earliest in order to protect the teeth and oral function. Our team of highly skilled Periodontists specialize in providing you the most advanced gum care.
Gingival Flap surgeries are aimed at disinfecting the Periodontal tissues and making them regain health. Such treatments enhance the life of the teeth and Surrounding bone, and this makes your gums sterile and completely free of harmful bacteria.
Usually assisted with lasers gum surgeries will keep your oral tissues disinfected for a long time. The gums are cleaned with highly specialized instruments. The concerned area is numbed with local anaesthesia so that the entire process will be pain-free for you. The gums are elevated carefully. The granulation tissue which contains active microbes is then removed. The tooth and root surface is also cleaned at the same time. By doing so, both the hard and soft tissue are disinfected perfectly and this makes your gums free from harmful bacteria.
Depending on the level of destruction, you may or may not require soft tissue or hard tissue grafting.
With a high placed frenum, people have a certain midline gap which looks unaesthetic. The muscle tissue is interposed between two central teeth and moves when you eat drink or even speak – creating that gap which increases with the age – if not treated early. With specially assisted lasers we re-position the muscle tissue. A quick 20 min procedure and you can get the gap closed with any of our cosmetic option or the orthodontic options.
What I loved most about Dr. Jasneet is the way he explained everything before following any procedure. At every step, he gave utmost attention to my priorities. The sum and substance is i am happy with the result.
Dr. Jasneet Singh - One Stop Solution for all Dental Problems. I have visited there few months ago for my ceramic braces. My braces have been on for 4 months and have seen great improvement to my teeth. He is having such a nice and amazing staff that make me super comfortable throughout the process. The best part is that Dr. Jasneet, took their time explaining everything thoroughly and answered each and every concern I had. All of I want to say that I am so grateful that I chose you and would "Highly Recommend" Dr. Jasneet Singh and his staff for all your orthodontic needs!
Wonderful experience. Words can't be enough to express my feelings. I had an experience in Jeddah' best dental hospital which was equipped with all the latest instruments facilities environment and Doctor having master degree from USA. It was good but the treatment guidence and environment at Dental works Delhi is far superior and excellent. Doctor Jasneet and Dr Simran are not only best professional but very friendly also. In our language both of them have dast e shafa (healing hands). I'm proud of them and the nation must be proud of such a skill. Pain free critical surgery of 60+ male salutes him. May God bless you Doctor.
I started my treatment a year ago and it came to an end today. He was really brave to take me as his patient as I am nearing 50 years of age and I wanted to straighten out my teeth. Quite a tall order for Dr. Jasneet as my teeth and gums were not in the best of shape and health. He did a FANTASTIC job and I couldn't be happier! Today post my last appointment with him I can't stop smiling and feeling 20 years younger! Thank you Dr. Jasneet!
Atlast, I have found the right person who thankfully is a great doctor too. Very impressed by the protective and professional approach of the entire drill of the staff and the treatment. Wishing you all the best and hoping to See you for my further treatment God Bless You All Always.
My name is Maali. I came from Sudan to India for studies. No sooner had I heard about the Dental Works clinic and how it is good place to start your teeth treatment with, then I decided to go there and check by myself. To be honest everything was fine from the very beginning, the doctor treatment, the cooperation of the staff and the clink facilities, not to forget the fact that the amount of money you will be paid is reasonable for such treatment you will have Moreover, I can say that they always try to do their level best to make you satisfied. I do recommend everyone who has problems with his/ her teeth to go to Dental Works clinic.
Best dental clinic in Paschim Vihar. Dr. Simran and Dr. Jasneet both are very polite and confident. Dr Simran is best endodontist in new delhi. I got my ret and veneers done from her and there was NO PAIN at all. My smile and face are completely changed after getting my dental treatment done from her. Those who wants to get their smile changed, please visit Dental works. Also, only after my 1st sitting, I was completely pain-free from my RT treatment.
A total orthodontic expert. I had my orthodontic treatment started from November 2020 and it lasted till Jan 2022.1 thought it would be very difficult but Dr. Jasneet made the treatment totally easy and effective for me. The best part was that he didn't rush the treatment instead he took his own time and didn’t let me go unless he was fully satisfied.
Dr. Simran has been extremely nice on all our visits. Very patiently she explains the problem which has to be taken care of and above all handles her patients with utmost cleanliness. We have been going from Patel Nagar to her clinic in Paschim Vihar and feel that it is really worthwhile to travel all that distance. We have complete faith in the doctor because like so many others she is not there to misguide us. In fact, my cousin from USA also got her dental treatment done from Dr Simran and has been all praises for her. At a young age, Dr Simran has built a good reputation for herself and her Clinic which is absolutely neat and clean. Will certainly, recommend Dr Simran to others.
Words can't describe, I am very thankful to Dr. Jasneet. It wasn't a straight forward case but he put all his efforts for giving me a beautiful smile. Thank you Soooo much doc. I now have an excuse to smile everywhere only and only because of him. He is the best orthodontist, would highly recommend Dental Works.
Feel in safe hands, one should be like this Happy to have you Dr. & can say u are my Dr. Dentist.
Genuine interest shown in ensuring treatment is provided in the correct systematic and professional touch with an eye on comfort zone of the patient.
I Don't know where to start. Both the physicians make a perfect team. I was just in an awe how they explained everything so well and execution was even better. The most appreciated thing is their behavior their thinking the patient as their own family member. Subsiding their fears, talking to them, calming them. I am even surprised they do it all day with so many people but never get tired! Henceforth they ain't pretentious! They are that caring actually! Professionalism is amazing but what they feel a something. Cause at this time we all know how people only mind their actions and are working for money! But this isn't that folks!
Excellent ambience, highly skilled doctor's and, latest technologies available in clinic. Never seen such a wonderful clinic in Delhi. Excellent services.
Very nice, friendly, and expert doctors who make you feel right at home, answer all your queries with patience, and provide the best services. I don't usually leave reviews but I was glad to make an exception for their excellent service.
I came from Africa, I visited this dental clinic because someone suggested to me and I just wanted to check but when I see how they work I knew this is where I want to get the treatment because they were so welcoming and scheduled and above all they are clean and they take care of every individual professionally, which makes you feel like u are in good hands. And now it's been almost 1 year and my teeth are showing a big change and it is going in a way I want it to! Glad I chose this, I recommend to anyone. Keep it up!
It was my 1st time being here, experiencing dental treatment in India. Not knowing this place at all!! I would say it was an amazing experience. Entire staff right from reception to attendants to specially doctors were very caring and supportive. Me and my 6-year-old daughter both got treated. I remember I took my daughter to a dentist in Canada, she couldn't get any treatment done there. But here she loved getting her selves treated. I would recommend all my friends and relatives to surely experience dentistry over here. Overall If I could rate this place, it's 100 out of 100.
I got my treatment for 3rd molar extraction at dental works which was unexpected. My journey and experience with doctor was marvelous. My myth and phobia for dental world is vanished. Journey was this much smooth that the moment my extraction was over and I was asked to step down from chair. I was stunned because my treatment was over and I did not feel pain even for a millisecond. Thank you Dr. Jasneet for making my journey so smooth.
