Local treatment

1. According to local stimulation factors, supragingival scaling or subgingival scaling can be performed, and occlusion can be adjusted when necessary to eliminate food impaction and correct bad restorations.

2. Treatment of periodontal pocket: When the periodontal pocket overflows with pus, it can be washed with 1 ~ 3% hydrogen peroxide and bagged with 10% iodine mixture or spiramycin, metronidazole and other medicine films. After removing local factors, shallow bags can be cauterized with iodophenol solution. Deep pockets require periodontal surgery to eliminate periodontitis. When the periodontal pocket reaches the root tip and the teeth are loose obviously, it can be considered to be removed.

3. Loose teeth fixation. After the above treatment, although the inflammation has been eliminated, the teeth are still loose, and temporary or permanent periodontal splint can be used to fix the loose teeth.

4. Treatment of periodontal abscess: When abscess is limited, incision and drainage can be performed. Periodontal bags should also be washed and coated with medicine film or iodine glycerin.

Systematic therapy

Mainly to enhance systemic resistance and actively treat systemic diseases related to periodontitis. When periodontal abscess occurs, patients with severe systemic reaction should take antibiotics orally to control infection and pay attention to rest.

Dialectical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

The knowledge of periodontal disease in traditional Chinese medicine has been recorded for a long time, emphasizing syndrome differentiation and treatment. For example:

1. Kidney yin deficiency type: it is advisable to nourish yin and tonify kidney, and add and subtract Liuwei Dihuang Decoction.

2. Kidney-yang deficiency type: Fu Gui Dihuang Pill should be added to warm and tonify kidney-yang.

3. Stomach meridian excess fire type (periodontal abscess): It is advisable to clear stomach and purge fire, and add and subtract Wei Qing decoction.

In a word, the treatment of periodontitis is accomplished through a series of comprehensive treatment measures. In order to consolidate the curative effect and prevent recurrence, oral hygiene education should be carried out, regular review should be carried out, and appropriate treatment should be given when necessary, such as scraping off bacteria spots, tartar or drug treatment.
