Periodontology at Famidental in Biel

Periodontology focuses on the health of the gums and surrounding tissues that support the teeth. At Famidental in Biel, we place great importance on the prevention and treatment of gum diseases to ensure your dental health in the long term.

Gingivitis – The Early Stage of Gum Disease

Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums caused by plaque buildup. It is the earliest form of gum disease and is characterized by symptoms such as redness, swelling, and bleeding gums. Fortunately, gingivitis is reversible if detected and treated early.

Treatment: A thorough teeth cleaning and improved oral hygiene can help cure gingivitis. We offer personalized advice on optimal gum care.

Periodontitis – A Serious Threat to Your Dental Health

If gingivitis is left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more severe inflammation that affects not only the gums but also the jawbone. Periodontitis is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults and requires comprehensive treatment.

Treatment: We use specialized techniques to clean inflamed tissue and stop the spread of infection. In advanced cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to restore the jawbone and stabilize the teeth.

Gum Recession – Gum Loss

Gum recession is a common problem where the gums pull back from the teeth, exposing the tooth roots. This can lead to increased sensitivity and a higher risk of cavities.

Causes: Common causes of gum recession include periodontitis, improper brushing, or genetic factors.

Treatment: We offer various treatment options to regenerate the gums and improve dental health, including gentle cleaning methods and, if necessary, surgical procedures.
