Harmful effects of gum disease and recession
Gum Tissue Regeneration
Our gums often do not get the attention they deserve, but without this soft, pink tissue we would not have any teeth at all. Our gums play an essential role in protecting our tooth roots and also in holding our teeth firmly in place. If your gum tissue becomes weakened, it will have a harmful effect on the longevity of your teeth and can also impact your overall health. If left untreated, the bacteria that cause gum disease will also enter the bloodstream and then pass bacterial infections to other organs. Patients suffering from gum disease have a dramatically greater chance of developing health conditions including high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. Gum recession, which is when the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth creating a pocket, is a common issue if you have moderate to severe gum disease. Not only does it look unpleasant and negatively affect your smile, but these periodontal pockets are perfect for trapping even more bacteria, escalating the rate of progression of the infection.
Gum regeneration procedures stop the progression of gum disease. These treatments allow the regrowth of gum tissue and bone by eliminating and removing the disease-causing bacteria.
Traynor Periodontics & Implants provides a variety of surgical and non-surgical services for the treatment of periodontal issues. We are well-known for our excellent communication style and warm presence. We are extremely effective with all clinical practices due to our consistent engagement with the innovative, technological improvements in the dental industry. We pride ourselves on the fact that we are very conservative in our treatment recommendations and limit surgery to the areas where it is absolutely necessary. Call Traynor Periodontics & Implants at 203-661-5885 with any questions or to make an appointment to evaluate the benefits of gum tissue regeneration for you.
A look at
The Gum Regeneration Procedure
When Traynor Periodontics & Implants performs a gum tissue regeneration procedure, the sagging pockets are cleaned by first folding back the gum tissue and removing bacteria. A thin, resorbable membrane is inserted between the gum tissue and the pocket. This membrane encourages and promotes the body to regenerate the bone and gum tissue. This membrane stimulates new tissue growth and acts as a barrier so that the faster-growing soft tissues will not invade the space where the bone is developing.
Aftercare
Gum Regeneration Aftercare
The effectiveness of your gum tissue regeneration will depend on your ability to follow a strict postoperative diet and to practice careful oral care. You will increase your chances of preserving your natural teeth by exercising daily oral hygiene, scheduling consistent professional maintenance, and following a mindful diet. These efforts will stymie the progression of gum disease and reduce the likelihood of other dental problems.
The team at Traynor Periodontics & Implants will examine, evaluate, and help determine if gum tissue regeneration is beneficial for you.
