Periodontal dental care:
prevention and treatment of periodontal disease
Our periodontics practice was established in 2021 by Dr Touati, a dental surgeon specializing in periodontics. Since then, we’ve been welcoming our patients to the heart of the Part-Dieu district, providing them with quality care in a pleasant environment.
Find out why periodontal care is essential for your oral health.
Preventing periodontitis
Our periodontics periodontics in Lyon receives worried patients every day, who are sometimes – wrongly – ashamed of suffering from periodontal disease. This bacterial disease, which affects the supporting elements of the teeth, often begins as simple gingivitis. If left untreated, the consequences can be serious: gingival recession, tooth loosening…
Fortunately, appropriate periodontal dental care can halt the progression of the disease.
The causes of periodontitis, its symptoms and repercussions
Periodontitis is caused by the proliferation of bacteria between the teeth and gums, in what are known as “periodontal pockets”. Untreated, it can attack the entire periodontium: cementum, ligament, gums and alveolar bone. It can also occur around dental implants.
Plaque build-up, over-brushing, smoking, poorly treated gingivitis, as well as medical, genetic and drug-related factors can all contribute to the development of periodontal disease. Unfortunately, periodontal disease is generally asymptomatic until it reaches an advanced stage. That’s why it’s so important to consult a periodontal dentist on a regular basis.
The risks of complications from periodontitis are high: swelling and pain, shifting teeth, loosening and falling… not to mention the very real danger of widespread microbial infection.
Periodontics at Studio Paro
Our practice focuses on non-invasive care and limits recourse to surgery whenever possible. We offer you a little-known but highly effective alternative: lithotripsy. Sometimes referred to as “root planing”, this gentle, painless periodontal treatment uses sonic vibrations to literally “explode” your teeth. These literally “explode” tartar and permanently clean up periodontal pockets.
A periodontal treatment at Studio Paro proceeds as follows:
- complete oral and dental check-up (clinical and radiological examination, bacteriological testing, etc.);
- diagnosis and establishment of a personalized lithotripsy treatment plan ;
- a hygiene kit to be carried out at home in addition to the office sessions;
- regular follow-up consultations after the end of the treatment protocol.
