Periodontitis is a serious form of gum disease that affects the gums and the bone supporting your teeth. If left untreated, periodontitis can cause teeth to become loose and may eventually lead to tooth loss. The condition usually develops from untreated gingivitis, allowing harmful bacteria to spread below the gum line and damage the tissues that support your teeth. At Andersen Dental Clinic in Budapest, we provide expert periodontitis treatment using modern techniques and high-quality materials – at prices that can be up to 70% lower than comparable treatment in the UK.
Symptoms of periodontitis
Periodontitis can be difficult to detect in its early stages, as the symptoms are often mild. Common signs of periodontitis include bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, red or swollen gums, and increased sensitivity when brushing your teeth. As the condition progresses, teeth may become loose or begin to shift due to the loss of supporting bone.
Regular dental check-ups are essential for detecting periodontitis early and preventing further damage. Early diagnosis and treatment can help protect your gums, preserve your natural teeth, and stop the disease from progressing.
What causes periodontitis?
Periodontitis usually begins as gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease, which develops when plaque and harmful bacteria build up along the gum line. If left untreated, the infection spreads deeper below the gums, attacking the tissues and bone that support your teeth. Over time, this can lead to gum recession, loose teeth and, ultimately, tooth loss.
Although poor oral hygiene is the most common cause of periodontitis, several other factors can increase your risk, including smoking, diabetes, stress and genetic predisposition. Recognising the early signs of gum disease and seeking prompt treatment can help prevent permanent damage and protect your oral health
Periodontitis treatment at Andersen Dental Clinic
At Andersen Dental Clinic, we provide professional periodontitis treatment in a safe and comfortable environment. Your treatment begins with a thorough examination, including measuring the depth of your gum pockets and taking digital X-rays to assess the severity of the condition. Treatment typically involves deep cleaning to remove plaque, tartar and bacteria from below the gum line. In some cases, root surface debridement under local anaesthetic may be recommended to ensure the infection is removed as effectively as possible.
Periodontitis treatment and gum surgery
If your gum pockets are particularly deep and the infection cannot be treated with deep cleaning alone, gum surgery may be recommended. During the procedure, we remove the infected tissue and reduce the depth of the gum pockets, making them easier to keep clean and healthy.
The treatment is performed under local anaesthetic and is an effective way to stop periodontitis from progressing. Our experienced team ensures that every procedure is as gentle and comfortable as possible, helping you feel at ease throughout your treatment.

How to prevent periodontitis
The best way to prevent periodontitis is by maintaining good oral hygiene and adopting healthy daily habits. Brush your teeth thoroughly twice a day using a fluoride toothpaste, and clean between your teeth with dental floss or interdental brushes to remove plaque effectively.
Smoking significantly increases the risk of periodontitis, so quitting smoking can greatly improve your gum health. Regular dental check-ups and professional dental cleanings are also essential for detecting gum disease early and preventing it from progressing. Maintaining good oral hygiene is the most effective way to protect your teeth and gums for the long term.

After the procedure, you should allow approximately 3 to 6 months for the implant to heal. The healing time depends on the condition and quality of your jawbone.

Once the healing period is complete, you’ll return to our clinic to have your custom-made dental crown fitted to the implant. Depending on the number of crowns you require, this visit typically takes between 4 and 6 days. Once your treatment is complete, you’ll be able to enjoy your new smile with fully functional, natural-looking teeth.
