Treatment of severe periodontitis. Detenville R.

General practitioners often can not cope with the treatment of severe periodontitis, despite the fact that in approximately 80 % of cases, therapy can be quite effective.

In the treatment of patients suffering from neglected periodontitis, three main questions arise

- what are the ways to eliminate pathogenic organisms?

- how can you influence various risk factors and aggravating factors?

- What treatment should be carried out in areas predisposed to the development of periodontitis of a severe degree?

The book presents answers to these questions. A logical, didactically strict presentation of the material includes a description of the clinical symptoms and biological characteristics of the disease, as well as the most modern data on periodontitis etiologies and new diagnostic methods. Despite the fact that this disease is a specific nosological unit, the treatment strategy should be developed individually.

on the example of a large number of clinical cases, excellent results are demonstrated, which can be achieved using the optimal use of traditional methods of treatment, including the elimination of bacterial plaque, antimicrobial therapy, surgical interventions and the use of dental implants.
