Do your gums often bleed when you brush your teeth? Do your teeth feel slightly loose, are your gums receding, or does the stinging sensation when eating and drinking keep getting worse? It may be periodontal disease<\/strong>, which most people know as periodontitis<\/strong>. It is a chronic disease that does not hurt, yet quietly destroys the supporting tissue of the teeth and cannot be cured without a dentist’s help. Left untreated, it leads to loose teeth, tooth loss and even serious systemic diseases. Acting in time is essential \u2013 and it also makes financial sense. Wondering what the price of periodontal disease treatment<\/strong> is? You will find the answers below!<\/p>\n

Price of the periodontal examination and pocket measurement<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The first step in treating periodontitis is a thorough periodontal examination. It includes measuring the depth of the periodontal pockets, which shows how far the disease has progressed. The measurements are taken with a special probe and are generally painless. The price of a specialist periodontal examination<\/strong> is \u20ac120.00 and it is usually included in the broader diagnostics and the planning of further treatment.<\/p>\n

Scaling and root planing<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When the periodontal pockets become too deep for a toothbrush to reach, a professional procedure \u2013 scaling and root planing<\/strong> \u2013 is required. The dentist thoroughly removes plaque and bacteria from the surface of the tooth roots, which prevents further inflammation and allows the tissue to heal.<\/p>\n

At OrthoDental the price of this procedure is \u20ac150.00 per quadrant<\/strong>, while treating a smaller area costs \u20ac30.00 for scaling and root planing of an individual root or tooth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Several visits are usually needed to treat the entire mouth. The procedure is generally not painful, and for sensitive patients it is performed under local anaesthesia. It is an essential step: once the bacteria are removed, tissue regeneration begins. The gum can reattach to the tooth, inflammation subsides, breath improves and the disease slows down.<\/p>\n

Laser therapy of periodontal tissues<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Are you among those who fear dental procedures and instruments? Especially in cases of advanced periodontitis, laser therapy<\/strong> is the best choice, as it enables precise, painless and highly effective removal of bacteria from the periodontal pockets. The laser reduces inflammation, stimulates tissue regeneration and shortens the healing time.<\/p>\n

At OrthoDental, the price of laser therapy of periodontal tissues (disinfection)<\/strong>, a session of about 30 minutes, is \u20ac230.00.<\/p>\n

The advantage of the laser is that it is precise, does not damage healthy tissue, does not hurt and enables faster healing.<\/p>\n

Flap surgery<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the most severe cases, when the periodontal pockets are too deep, a surgical solution \u2013 flap surgery \u2013 is required. The surgeon lifts the gum, cleans the roots and the inflamed parts of the tissue, and then sutures the gum back in place.<\/p>\n

The price of flap surgery<\/strong> at OrthoDental depends on the extent of the procedure. Treating an entire sextant costs \u20ac360.00, while surgery on an individual tooth costs \u20ac260.00.<\/p>\n

So how much does periodontal disease treatment cost?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The total cost of treatment depends on the severity of the disease, the number of affected teeth, the chosen therapies and your individual response to treatment. The total price can therefore range between \u20ac300 and \u20ac1,500 or more<\/strong> if the treatment is more extensive.<\/p>\n

Always keep in mind that this is a long-term investment in your health, as timely treatment of periodontitis prevents more serious consequences, including tooth loss.<\/p>\n

Answers to frequently asked questions<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    How much does periodontal disease treatment cost?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The price depends on the extent of the disease and the chosen procedures. Scaling and root planing costs \u20ac150 per quadrant (\u20ac30 per individual tooth), laser treatment costs \u20ac230, and flap surgery of a single area costs between \u20ac260 and \u20ac360. The total cost usually ranges between \u20ac300 and \u20ac1,500.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      Is periodontitis treatment painful?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Most procedures are performed under local anaesthesia and are painless for the patient. Procedures such as root scaling can be slightly uncomfortable, but they do not hurt. Laser gum treatment is completely painless and therefore suitable even for sensitive patients.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        How long does periodontal disease treatment take?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        It depends on the severity of the disease. Basic treatment can take a few weeks (2\u20134 visits), while advanced periodontitis that also requires flap surgery is treated in stages and can take several months. An important part of the treatment is also maintaining the results with regular check-ups.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \n

          Is laser gum treatment effective?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Yes. Laser therapy in the treatment of periodontal disease destroys bacteria, reduces pocket depth, promotes healing and is painless. It is used to support classic scaling or as a standalone therapy in the earlier stages of periodontitis.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. \n

            How do I know if I have periodontal disease?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            The most common signs are: bleeding gums, bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, the feeling that your teeth look longer, or pain when biting. If you notice any of these symptoms, book an examination at OrthoDental as soon as possible \u2013 early treatment is far more successful and cheaper.<\/p>\n
