It’s possible that you have periodontitis. Come in for a checkup before it gets worse. [ Contact us ](https://panadent.ch/en/contact/) [ News and advice ](https://panadent.ch/en/news-and-advice/)## Non-surgical periodontology ## Explanations Periodontitis, or periodontal disease, is an infectious disease characterized by the destruction of the supporting tissues around one or several teeth. It is primarily caused by the buildup of tartar and harmful bacteria beneath the gums The inflammation it causes leads to a gradual breakdown of the bone around the teeth, and the space between the tooth and the gum deepens, reducing their support; this may be accompanied by tooth mobility and, tooth loss in an already advanced stage.The insidious thing about periodontal disease is that it often progresses painlessly, and by the time it is diagnosed, it is already too late—which is why regular checkups are so important. Furthermore, this disease requires regular monitoring and treatment throughout one’s life, even after it has been stabilized. PanaDent offers two non-surgical methods for the l treatment of gum disease: - The Classical Method. - Parasite treatment under microscopic control [ Contact us ⟶ ](https://panadent.ch/en/contact/) ![](https://panadent.ch/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/343.png) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pMBOiWy35M ## Illustration ![](https://panadent.ch/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/31912328_m-1024x683.jpg)## Non-surgical periodontology ## The classical method 1\. **Initial scaling** to reduce surface inflammation 2\. **Hygiene instructions and motivation** to help you keep your mouth clean 3\. **Probing or measuring of pockets around teeth** to define their depth and location and monitor their evolution 4. **Curettage of pockets under local anaesthetic** to remove tartar that has settled on tooth roots and maintain an inflammatory environment in which bad bacteria can proliferate 5\. **Reassessment** to check treatment stability and prevent possible relapses. Curettages are only carried out if we can get you to respect the instructions to be followed at home (brushing technique, use of interdental brushes, etc.), otherwise the success of the treatment will be too limited.

It helps prevent and treat periodontitis through close monitoring of the gingival microbiome, primarily through the routine use of a phase-contrast microscope. No surgery, scaling, or root planing is required. The approach is primarily medical, painless, and supplemented by simple [dental cleanings](https://panadent.ch/en/descaling-polishing/). Bone tissues regenerate naturally without the addition of external bone elements, and the healed periodontal grooves close up as they did originally, with the possibility of slight recession, depending on the original situation. Microbial infection is fully managed and eliminated, as demonstrated by microscopic monitoring of the patient. The bacterial flora is tackled like a perfectly healthy child, and the inflammation is eliminated, offering a permanent cure as long as the patient maintains regular oral hygiene.

The microscope is an integral element of the method since it allows you to manage and adapt your treatment until you obtain a normal flora representative of gingival health. 4\. **Treatment** Once the diagnosis has been made, treatment begins with monthly, totally pain-free sessions, lasting several months until we have negative samples of the pathogenic microbes. 5\. **Tartar removal** Once the infection is under control, we remove the tartar hidden under the gum and healing can begin. After a few months, you will be cured, and you will be able to keep your teeth and smile. Just keep an eye out for contamination factors in your environment.
