Periodontology is the area of the specialized system of hard and soft tissues that support your teeth and keep them in their place in the jaw. This apparatus, known as the periodontium, has some very important functions: It securely attaches the teeth to the jaws.

Disease of the Gingiva

It is the situation where the gum is pulled under the enamel layer, which is the protective layer of the tooth, and the root surfaces are exposed.

The surfaces of the teeth are not resistant to external factors. When gingival recession occurs, its roots are exposed. When gingival recession is not treated, sensitivity (leakage) and root caries may occur on the root surfaces over time and tooth can be lost.

Today, there are many treatments, both surgically and non-surgically, for gum recession. Surgically exposed root surfaces can be closed with microsurgical techniques and restored to their pre-extraction state or further recession of the gum can be prevented. Sutures are removed 10-14 days after the microsurgical procedure and the tissue is left to heal.

Gingivitis

Gingivitis

It is the case of bacterial plaque and tartar formed by the accumulation of food residues on the tooth and root surfaces, causing inflammation in the gums and causing bleeding and redness. Most of the time, these bacterial plaque and tartar are firmly adhered to the root surfaces of the teeth and cause the bone under the gum to dissolve due to inflammation. Swaying and abscess can occur in the teeth due to this bone resorption and teeth can be lost. When gum treatment is done, inflammation disappears and bone resorption stops.

Sometimes, gum surgery can be performed with microsurgical techniques and bone dust (graft) can be used to replace the lost bone.

In order to prevent the recurrence of gingivitis, teeth should be brushed as and often as recommended by the dentist and oral hygiene should be paid attention to.

Before all dental treatments such as implant treatment, crown, bridge, zirconium, filling and prosthesis, braces, gums should be checked, inflammation should be removed and then these procedures should be performed. Otherwise, severe gingivitis may occur in the future and the treatments performed fail.

laser gingival treatment

Laser Gingival Treatment

Today, lasers are used in many areas in gum treatment. It is especially used to ensure the harmony of the gums called 'pink aesthetics' with the teeth, to eliminate gum growth and to increase the visibility of the teeth.

In addition, lasers can be used to eliminate gingivitis, accelerate wound healing and eliminate bacteria.

Ich komme aus der Schweiz und litt unter Zahnfleischproblemen sowie Knochenschwund im Kiefer. Während andere Kliniken vorschlugen, die betroffenen Zähne zu ziehen und durch Implantate zu ersetzen, entschied ich mich aufgrund meiner bereits vorhandenen Implantate im Unterkiefer und des dortigen Knochenschwunds, zunächst eine Behandlung des Zahnfleisches im Oberkiefer in Betracht zu ziehen. Die MosDent-Klinik empfahl mir eine Flap-Operation inklusive Knochenaufbau, die wir schließlich durchführten. Nun heißt es abwarten und Tee trinken 😉, bis alles verheilt ist.

I had a wonderful experience at Mostdent Clinic. I came in to get a few fillings done, and everything went perfectly. The doctor was very gentle, professional, and explained each step, which helped me feel relaxed and confident. The quality of the work is excellent, and the entire team was friendly and caring. From the reception to the dental chair everything was smooth and organized. I’m really happy with the results and highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high-quality dental care in Turkey)

I want to sincerely thank Mostdent Clinic for their excellent care. I came in initially for a crown, but during the examination, they found several hidden problems and immediately helped me build a clear and affordable treatment plan. Dr. Oksana handled most of the treatment – she did fillings and cleaned root canals under a microscope. Everything was done with precision and care, even in the most difficult cases. Dr. Muhammed Bahadır successfully removed the crown of my wisdom tooth. The procedure was quick and painless, which I had been really nervous about – but he did it professionally and calmly. Dr. Pelinsu Yıkılmaz placed new CEREC Celtra Duo crowns for me. She worked with great precision and care, and the whole procedure was smooth and fast. I’m very satisfied with the result — the crowns feel natural and comfortable. I also want to thank Özgür, the clinic coordinator. He stayed in contact the whole time, reminded me about my appointments, helped with any questions, and made everything feel organized and stress-free. This clinic truly combines professionalism with a caring attitude. I highly recommend them!

I can describe Mosdent as more than just a clinic, but a center for health and smiles. Their attentiveness, high-quality communication, commitment to hygiene, and patient-centered approach from day one are truly remarkable. I never felt alone throughout my treatment; every step was clearly explained. I achieved excellent results, both health-wise and aesthetically. Their doctors, assistants, and consultants demonstrate true teamwork. I extend my sincere gratitude to the Mosdent family for their hard work and friendly smiles.

I came for treatment with the reference of my relatives, and they are a clinic that I am very satisfied with, both in terms of service quality and the care, knowledge and experience of the doctors. Thank you :)
