Paradentosis

Paradentosis is a dental disorder that affects the gums and teeth. It is characterized by inflammation of the gums and bone, as well as the loss of teeth. The main cause of Paradentosis is plaque that accumulates on the teeth and gums due to poor oral hygiene. Plaque is a sticky film that is composed of bacteria, food particles and saliva. If it is not removed, it accumulates and hardens, becoming what is known as tartar. Tartar is a hardened form of plaque that is difficult to remove and can cause inflammation of the gums and bone. In addition, it can cause the gums to pull away from the teeth, which can lead to tooth loss. If left untreated, it can also lead to periodontal disease, which can cause even more serious damage to the teeth and gums. Paradentosis can be treated through a variety of methods, depending on the severity of the condition. These treatments may include scaling and root planing, which removes the plaque and tartar from the teeth and gums. Antibiotics may be prescribed to help fight the infection and reduce inflammation. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to repair damaged tissue or replace missing teeth. Proper oral hygiene, such as brushing and flossing, is essential for preventing Paradentosis and other dental problems.
