Periodontology in Croatia
Periodontology is a branch of DENTAL MEDICINE WHICH DELAS WITH ILLNESSES AND CURING OF THE STRUCTURES SUPPORTING THE TOOTH (PERIODONTAL).
PERIODONTAL IS MADE OUT OF the bone, gingiva (gums) and the ligament fibers which bind a tooth to the bone.
PERIODONTAL ILLNESSES (gingivitis, periodontitis) are inflammatory conditions which can cause the destruction of supporting structures which strengthen teeth (gum-gingiva, ligament, bone).
In case you have one of the following symptoms, report to the Dental Istria center in order to timely set the diagnosis for the purpose of targeted treatment.





SYMPTOMS:
- Unpleasant halitosis
- Redness and swelling of the gums (gums, gingiva)
- Bleeding while brushing, pain
- Reduction
- Float and tooth loss
Ignoring the symptoms can lead to endangering your entire health and creation of various systemic diseases.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
- Plaque (soft deposits) and calculus (hard plaque) on teeth
- Illnesses which weaken the immune system (diabetes, HIV, AIDS, hormonal disorders, stress)
- Genetical predisposition
- Usage of medicine, nicotine, cigarettes
- Anatomical teeth anomalies (rotated teeth, crowded teeth…)
- Bad and protruding fillings (teeth fill-ins), bad crowns and bridges which deter food
METHODS OF TREATMENT in Dental Istria
therapy includes cleaning of dental plaque and tartar above and below the level of gingiva (gums) and thus removing the bacterias which are the main cause of infection.
In the Dental Istria we use the latest techniques and apparatus for treatment of gingivitis, periodontitis… (periodontal disease).
Compared with the classical methods of treatments, act specifically on bacteria and disinfect tissues (periodontal pockets) and prevent further bacterial growth.
Because of LASER and OZONE, the need for antibiotics often lacks.
OZONE: the plan which functions antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal
LASER:
– Has a wide range of applications in dentistry
– Disinfects tissues, stimulates tissue regeneration
– Has anti-inflammatory effect and prevents the growth of the bacteria (successful method in periodontal pockets, gingvitis)
AIR FLOW MASTER:
– Teeth sandblasting
– For supragingival
– Removal of the soft and hard deposits (plaque and tartar)
– Refreshing
– Lemon flavor
PERIO FLOW: subgingival plaque removal
HIGH FREQUENCY ULTRASOUND DEVICES:
– For removal of hard deposits on teeth
When the conservative therapy doesn’t show the results in curing, we approach to the surgical therapy (scraping, polishing, adding the bone, membranes and biologically active substances, such as EMDOGAIN)
