Have you noticed redness, swelling, or pain in your gums? Does blood appear when you brush your teeth? These are warning signs—your gum health requires attention. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to tooth loss.

The first step is to book an appointment with a periodontist at Doctor Dent in Astana. This specialist diagnoses and treats periodontal tissues. We work quickly, carefully, and professionally, following international treatment protocols. Our comprehensive approach includes a dental hygienist and, if necessary, an oral surgeon.

Our patients most frequently seek help for:

• Gingivitis — gum inflammation accompanied by bleeding, itching, swelling, and bad breath. The primary cause is plaque buildup and inadequate hygiene. Without treatment, gingivitis can progress into periodontitis.
• Periodontitis — chronic inflammation of the periodontium (the gums and tissues supporting the tooth). In advanced cases, teeth may become loose, posing a risk of loss.

Diagnostics and treatment for these conditions are handled by Doctor Dent periodontists.

• We work according to modern international periodontology standards.
• We perform professional hygiene using the Swiss GBT protocol—the most effective way to remove dental deposits.
• We use magnification (microscopes or binoculars) for the most conservative and precise treatment.
• We utilize atraumatic techniques to ensure maximum patient comfort.
• We manage each case until full recovery or stable remission.
• We provide training in proper home hygiene and select personalized care products.

Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums that can affect patients of any age and is particularly common during pregnancy. The cause is dental plaque formed due to insufficient hygiene.

Symptoms:

• Redness and swelling of the gums
• Bleeding during brushing or flossing
• Bad breath

Gingivitis is dangerous because, without treatment, it inevitably turns into periodontitis.

Treatment for gingivitis includes:

• Professional dental cleaning (removal of plaque and tartar)
• Proper home hygiene education
• Ozone therapy (for specific forms)
• Preventive clinic visits at least once every six months

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation of periodontal tissues, leading to the destruction of the periodontal ligament and the threat of tooth loss.

Causes: Accumulation of dental plaque and tartar due to poor hygiene.

Symptoms:

• Persistent bad breath
• Pus discharge from the gums (during acute stages)
• Tooth mobility (loose teeth)

Periodontitis is linked to risks of kidney disease and neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease. It is a chronic pathology requiring constant prevention and regular monitoring by a periodontist.

Treatment for periodontitis:

• Continuous monitoring by a periodontist and a personalized care program.
• Professional hygiene and specialized periodontal cleaning.
• In case of flare-ups—surgical intervention to remove the site of infection and apply antiseptics.

Stomatitis is a common disease of the oral mucosa (lining of the mouth).

Symptoms:

• Redness of the mucosa and a burning sensation
• Painful ulcers on the inner surface of the cheeks, lips, or under the tongue
• Fever, inflamed lymph nodes, coated tongue, excessive salivation, or loss of appetite

Treatment for stomatitis should only be carried out by a specialist, as the pathogens can be bacteria, viruses, or fungi.

Treatment methods:

• Dietary correction: excluding acidic, spicy, or extremely hot/cold foods.
• Professional hygiene and plaque removal.
• Antiseptic treatment of the mucosa.
• Antiviral therapy (for herpetic stomatitis).
• Antifungal medications (for candidiasis).
