CONT

Le traitement parodontal vise à rétablir la santé des gencives. Il nécessite habituellement un détartrage - soit l'enlèvement de la plaque et du tartre accumulés sur les dents -, un aplanissement des racines - une technique visant à rendre lisse la racine des dents une fois les débris enlevés -, et un curetage ou grattage de la plaque et des tissus enflammés des gencives. Certains cas plus avancés peuvent nécessiter un traitement chirurgical.
