Periodontal Treatment
Periodontal disease is an inflammation that affects the tissues supporting the teeth — the gums, alveolar bone, and periodontal ligament. It usually begins as gingivitis, but if not treated promptly, it can progress to periodontitis, a chronic condition that may lead to tooth mobility or even tooth loss.
At Dr. Athanasios Nikitopoulos’ dental clinic in Kalamata, we apply modern periodontal treatment methods aimed at stopping the progression of the disease and preserving natural teeth for as long as possible.
Οι ολοκεραμικές στεφάνες αποτελούν την κορυφαία επιλογή της αισθητικής και επανορθωτικής οδοντιατρικής, όταν στόχος είναι ένα φυσικό, αρμονικό και φωτεινό χαμόγελο.

The treatment includes:
- Clinical and radiographic evaluation for an accurate diagnosis.
- Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove tartar and bacterial plaque below the gum line.
- Patient education on proper oral hygiene and brushing techniques.
- Follow-up and regular maintenance to prevent recurrence.
Signs that may indicate periodontal disease:
- Gums that bleed or are swollen.
- Gum recession and “longer” appearing teeth.
- Tooth mobility.
- Bad breath or unpleasant taste in the mouth.
Periodontal treatment aims not only to restore gum health but also to maintain overall oral health. With proper monitoring and regular cleanings, teeth can remain healthy for a lifetime.
