What is periodontology?

When oral hygiene is insufficient, plaque and bacteria can accumulate between teeth and gums. This creates pockets – deep spaces that can only be thoroughly cleaned by a dental hygienist with special instruments. With the right treatment and consistent aftercare, these pockets can be reduced significantly. We support you in maintaining long-term gum health.

Frequently asked questions about periodontology and treatment in Rotterdam

Looking for a periodontist in Rotterdam? Here you’ll find answers to frequently asked questions about gum problems, periodontitis, and how periodontal treatment works.

It’s a dental specialty focused on diagnosing and treating gum diseases such as gum inflammation, gum recession, and jawbone loss. At our Rotterdam practice, we provide professional periodontal care to patients with gum complaints or periodontitis.
You may be referred to a periodontist if gum problems don’t improve with regular cleaning or oral hygiene. This is often the case with advanced gum disease like periodontitis.
  • Gingivitis is mild gum inflammation, often showing redness, swelling, and bleeding during brushing.
  • Periodontitis is more severe, as the infection spreads to the jawbone, potentially causing loose teeth or tooth loss.

Common symptoms include:

  • Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
  • Persistent bad breath (halitosis)
  • Gum recession
  • Loose teeth
  • Deep pockets between teeth and gums (diagnosed by a dentist or hygienist in Rotterdam)
Not always. It often develops quietly without pain in the beginning. Regular dental check-ups in Rotterdam are crucial to detect it early.
  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Smoking
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Poor diet or high stress
  • Medical conditions such as diabetes

Treatment is carried out in different phases:

  • Deep cleaning below the gums (scaling & root planing)
  • Oral hygiene instructions for home care
  • Re-evaluation of gum healing
  • Flap surgery if deep pockets remain

No. It is done under local anesthesia. Temporary sensitivity or mild discomfort may occur but is manageable.

That depends on severity. The initial treatment phase usually takes several weeks. For long-term stability, aftercare can take months or years.

Frequently asked questions about aftercare, lifestyle & costs

Want to know how healthy your gums will be after periodontal treatment in Rotterdam? Here we answer frequently asked questions about aftercare, lifestyle, costs, and reimbursements.

The disease can be halted and stabilized, but lost bone usually doesn’t grow back naturally. With good oral care and regular visits in Rotterdam, further damage can be prevented.
Regular follow-up check-ups and cleanings every 3–6 months with your hygienist or periodontist. This keeps inflammation under control.
Without it, the infection often returns. Periodontitis is chronic and requires lifelong care.

Yes. Smoking reduces blood flow, slows healing, and increases the risk of severe gum disease.

Not usually in the basic insurance. Many supplemental dental plans partly cover periodontal treatments. We always provide a clear cost estimate in advance.
Costs vary based on severity and treatment plan. A typical course ranges from €500 to €1500. More complex cases, like flap surgery or intensive aftercare, may cost more.
