Periodontal Disease Treatment Slows Periodontitis
One of the goals of periodontal disease treatment is to arrest and control the progression of the bacteria that cause gingivitis and periodontal disease. As the bacteria infect the gum tissues, they release toxic substances that trigger the breakdown of gum and bone. The gum then separates from the teeth, forming a gap that is called a periodontal pocket. These spaces are inaccessible to daily oral hygiene techniques. Bacteria settle in these pockets and continue to accumulate and reproduce, creating further gum and bone destruction.
Periodontal disease treatment such as scaling and root planing involve the removal of the irritants and bacterial deposits (plaque and tartar) that have accumulated above and below the gum line in the periodontal pockets. The root surfaces of the teeth are planed (smoothed) to promote healing and to help prevent future bacterial reattachment. At the same time, gingival (gum) curettage can be done to remove the infected soft tissues that line the periodontal pockets.
Most of the time, scaling and root planing is done in two to four visits. For patient comfort, the gums can be numbed by the periodontist using a local anesthetic. One-quarter of the mouth is usually treated at the time and treatment of each quarter can take 45 minutes to an hour (three to four hours for the entire mouth). Most patients report minimal discomfort during these periodontics treatments.
During scaling and root planing appointments, the dental care provider will review oral hygiene techniques that are aimed at improving the person's ability to control plaque and to help avoid bacteria from re-infecting the pockets. Patients also will receive advice on the modification of certain risk factors associated with periodontal disease.
In some circumstances, the dental care provider may recommend the use of adjunctive products for periodontal treatment. To be effective, antimicrobial products such as Chlorhexedine, PerioChip, and Atridox should be used in combination with scaling and root planing. Periostat is also a product that can be used as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in order to impede further tissue breakdown and promote healing.
Several weeks after completion of scaling and root planing, a periodontal re-evaluation should be completed. The purpose of this exam is to assess the response to treatment and determine if there is a need for further treatment.
The best way to stop the progression of periodontal disease is to mechanically remove the bacterial plaque and tartar that have accumulated in the periodontal pocket. Daily oral hygiene and supportive periodontal treatment (see article "Supportive Periodontal Treatment") is key to the success of scaling and root planing. Without treatment, the tartar and plaque buildup underneath the gums will continue to cause periodontal tissue breakdown, progression of periodontal disease, and eventually tooth loss and/or systemic (general) complications.

Discover The Warning Signs for Gum Disease
A multitude of bacteria are busy in our mouths, day and night. These bacteria can cause bad breath (halitosis) and periodontal disease (gum disease).
The warning signs of bacterial attack are bleeding gums, swollen gums or unexplained bad breath. If you or someone you love has these symptoms, you need to mobilize the natural defenses present in a healthy mouth. Here's why.
As infection rates increase, more serious complications in your general health can occur. Research has established a meaningful link between gum disease and halitosis, and other disorders, including:
- increased incidence of heart attack or stroke
- low birth-weight babies
- premature delivery for pregnant women
Periodontal disease should be taken very seriously. If you are experiencing mysterious gum flare-ups, swollen gums or bleeding gums, you could have gingivitis or possibly even periodontitis and should see your primary care physician. Be sure to tell your dentist if you are currently being treated for heart problems.
Build up your natural defenses. With gum disease, the best defense against it and bad breath is a good offense.
