Periodontal disease is one of the most prevalent dental conditions globally and can be identified by inflammation and redness of the soft tissues surrounding the tooth (gum). In the more advanced stages, these symptoms are accompanied by bleeding during brushing, gingival retraction, pain during mastication and even by the appearance of tooth mobility on the arch leading, finally, to its loss.

Periodontology deals with gum diseases, namely gingivitis and periodontitis. More precisely, periodontics specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the gums and supporting tissues of the tooth, always drawing attention to how vital a correct dental hygiene is. That is why practicing correct dental hygiene at home every day, in the morning and especially in the evening, for at least 3 minutes and using dental floss, is the easiest way to maintain dental and periodontal health.
