Periodontitis treatment
Healthy gums are the foundation of healthy teeth. Periodontal disease (periodontitis) is a chronic inflammation of the tissues surrounding the teeth, which can lead to loosening of the teeth, and in advanced cases, even tooth loss. It often develops gradually and without clear pain symptoms, which helper make early diagnosis so important. At Luxdentica, we specialize in the comprehensive treatment of periodontal diseases at every stage of their progression, focusing on halting the disease process and retaining the patient's natural teeth as long as possible.
Symptoms that should draw attention
The first signs of periodontitis are usually:
bleeding gums when brushing or eating,
swelling and redness of the gums,
bad breath,
exposed tooth necks,
tooth sensitivity,
loose teeth in more advanced cases.
If you notice any of these symptoms, a prompt periodontological consultation is recommended.
Diagnosis and treatment
The basis of therapy is accurate diagnostics and the elimination of factors responsible for inflammation, primarily plaque and tartar.
Treatment for periodontitis includes, among others:
professional dental hygiene procedures,
curettage (deep cleaning of gum pockets),
treatment of gum and periodontal inflammation,
stabilization of loose teeth (splinting),
surgical and regenerative procedures of periodontal tissues,
treatment of gum recession,
plastic surgery of soft tissues within the gums.
The goal of therapy is to stop the progression of the disease, improve the quality of life, and maintain natural teeth in the oral cavity.

Snoring and sleep apnea
Snoring is a common sleep disorder that affects both men and women. Although it is often treated as a mere inconvenience, it can be a symptom of a more serious problem – obstructive sleep apnea. In many cases, the cause of breathing disorders during sleep lies in abnormalities in the structure or alignment of the oral and jaw structures. One of the contributing factors can be an incorrect position of the mandible, which restricts the free flow of air.
