Injection with Traumeel
One of the most common and pressing problems in dentistry is the treatment of periodontal diseases. By periodontium we mean not only the gum itself, but also the periodontium, as well as the alveolar processes. When an infection enters one of these zones, an inflammatory process begins in it, characterized by the following symptoms:
- an increase in the volume of tartar, especially on the inside of the tooth;
- destruction of the tissues connecting the tooth to the gum, as a result of which it begins to wobble and “fall in” when biting, mobility appears;
- the appearance of pathological periodontal pockets;
- periodontal disease - thinning of the bone substance of the jaw;
- exposure of tooth roots;
- bleeding in the gum area;
- bad breath.
If you experience at least some of the listed symptoms, it’s time to make an appointment with a dentist, who will conduct an examination, determine the degree of advanced disease and prescribe adequate treatment.
How and with what are periodontal diseases treated?
Until recently, the only effective treatment was the prescription of antibiotic drugs. Yes, they successfully cope with the existing infection, but such therapy can hardly be called a panacea for periodontal diseases.
Firstly, after some time, resistance almost inevitably arises, that is, addiction to a particular drug. It stops working and the dentist has to look for a replacement and adjust the treatment regimen. Secondly, taking antibiotics, even topically, is often fraught with side effects. The most common manifestations of this effect are:
- dysbacteriosis, gastritis and colitis;
- peptic ulcer;
- disorders of the liver and kidneys;
- allergic reactions;
- candidiasis;
- general decrease in immunity.
That is why today a worthy alternative to antibiotics has been found in dentistry - the homeopathic drug Traumeel. It contains plant components such as chamomile, arnica, echinacea, calendula, yarrow, St. John's wort and some others. Thanks to the plant-mineral composition, taking Traumeel is not accompanied by side effects, and the drug acts on the source of infection in the periodontium gently and effectively.
Dental clinic "Dent Prestige": treatment of periodontal diseases using progressive methods
Doctors at our clinic actively practice the treatment of pathological processes developing in the periodontal area using injections of the drug “Traumel”. Why is it better to do this in the dentist's office rather than some other method?
Due to their own busyness, lack of time and reluctance to visit medical institutions, some patients are ready to self-medicate. However, in dentistry this approach is impossible - giving an injection into the gum area is much more difficult than a conventional intramuscular one. Only a specialist knows how to do this correctly, safely, painlessly and effectively. In addition, during the treatment process, the dentist will be able to observe the body's response to treatment, noting progress or lack thereof.
Therefore, we invite everyone who has noticed the first signs of pathology in the periodontium to visit our clinic, carry out a comprehensive examination and examination, if necessary, get a prescription for injections with Traumeel and complete the entire prescribed course of treatment, with which our competent and experienced dentists. The cost of the procedure is quite affordable even for patients with low incomes, and the painlessness and effectiveness of treatment is guaranteed by the professionalism of the staff of the Dent Prestige clinic.
