Periodontics
Effective treatments for sparkling teeth and a long-lasting smile!
Gum diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis can cause unpleasant and serious health problems. At ARENA clinic, our experienced periodontic specialists use modern therapeutic methods to effectively treat gum diseases, extend the life of your teeth, and refresh your smile.
What is periodontics?
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the treatment of the teeth’s supporting structures — bone, gums, cementum, periodontium, and gingiva — in order to eliminate disease-causing irregularities in the oral cavity.
Periodontal disease includes gingivitis (the inflammatory change in the gums) and periodontitis (deeper structural inflammation below the gums). Our periodontal specialists in Zagreb treat these diseases with modern methods and help prolong the life of your teeth and bring the brightness back to your smile – painlessly and comfortably.
Conditions periodontics can solve
Gingivitis
Gingivitis is a disease that occurs as a result of plaque (bacterial deposits) accumulation around the base of teeth and the neglect of oral hygiene. The first symptoms of gingivitis (inflammation of the gingiva) are redness and gum bleeding.
Kasnije se plak mineralizira (otvrdne), zbog čega nastaje zubni kamenac i više se ne može tako lako očistiti, što dovodi do problema s oralnim zdravljem. Neliječeni gingivitis može se razviti u parodontitis, što je ozbiljnije stanje koje zahtjeva i ozbiljan pristup liječenju.
As the disease progresses, plaque mineralizes (or hardens) into tartar, which is extremely difficult to remove and leads to more critical oral health problems. Untreated gingivitis can develop into periodontitis — a more serious condition requiring a more serious approach to treatment.

In order for us to diagnose periodontal disease, we first have to conduct a detailed examination and analysis of the teeth and gums. That includes measuring bleeding and the presence of plaque, the depth of periodontal pockets, tooth movement, and more. We record the data collected during the periodontal exam in your file, and then base our diagnosis and treatment plan on the results.
