Periodontitis or Gum disease: 3d animation included
#gingivitis #toothloss
Welcome to our channel Power of knowledge. In this video you will learn about a medical condition called Periodontitis with the help of 3d animations.
Periodontitis, also known as Gum disease, is a dental condition where the bones surrounding the teeth get damaged, causing the teeth to loosen and eventually fall out. This disease affects nearly every other person over 30 years old and progressively weakens teeth due to aging.
Let's take a closer look at what Periodontitis involves and how it impacts our teeth. Our teeth are divided into two parts: the visible upper part called the Crown, followed by the root hidden in our gums. The root of the tooth, is tightly connected to the bone by periodontal ligaments, providing strength to our teeth and preventing them from wobbling while chewing.
However, if you don't clean your teeth properly, a layer forms on them consisting of bacteria, proteins from saliva, and dead cells, known as plaque. Bacteria within plaque gradually spread beneath your gums. Once the plaque layer extends beneath the gum line, it cannot be cleaned effectively with normal brushing, allowing bacteria to further grow. These bacteria accumulate, forming a harder and darker layer called tartar or calculus.
Different types of bacteria start growing in the calculus layer, disturbing our gums, leading to bleeding, swelling, or looseness. This stage is termed gingivitis, indicating inflammation of the gums. At this point, the condition can still be treated as it hasn't caused damage to your teeth or jawbone. However, if left untreated, the bacteria move deeper, damaging the bone around the tooth socket. This triggers immune cells to reach the infection site, attempting to kill the bacteria, but some bacteria can evade immune cells and worsen the bone destruction process.
Gradually, the bone surrounding the teeth weakens, gums become loose, and teeth start loosening. This stage is termed periodontitis.
Symptoms:
Symptoms of Periodontitis include swollen gums, bleeding gums, loose gums, bad breath, darkening of gums, and more.
Treatment:
Detecting and treating Periodontitis in its initial stages is possible, but once it progresses to bone destruction, it becomes challenging to treat. Surgical methods and techniques can be used to some extent to treat this condition, which we'll discuss in our upcoming videos.
Thanks For watching.
