新加坡牙龈治疗终极指南

你是否有牙龈疾病?研究表明,很多人都有某种形式的牙龈疾病,这个问题可能比你想象的更加常见。

2003年健康促进局开展了一项口腔健康调查,发现接近90%的成人接受检查时有轻度至中度牙周(牙龈)疾病症状。2010年的一项较新研究表明,51%的新加坡公民在一生中有25-44年的时间要遭受牙龈疾病困扰。

根据牙龈状况,有多种治疗不同阶段牙龈疾病的方法。下列指南可以让你更加了解牙龈疾病和牙龈治疗。

什么是牙龈疾病?

牙龈疾病指牙龈发炎/感染,进而会影响牙周骨。这种疾病是牙菌斑在牙齿上累积导致而成。

牙龈疾病的三个阶段分别是牙龈炎、轻度牙周炎和重度牙周炎。牙龈炎是程度最轻的牙龈疾病,但是如果不予以治疗,最终会发展成最严重的牙龈疾病——重度牙周炎。

如何判断自己是否有牙龈疾病?

牙龈疾病也被称为“无声杀手”,有时并没有疼痛症状。因此,一定要留心下列警示信号。

刷牙、用牙线清洁牙时,牙龈容易出血

  • 牙龈红肿
  • 牙龈退缩
  • 长期口臭
  • 恒压松动
  • 咬合发生变化
  • 牙齿和牙龈之间溢脓

如果你有上述任何一种症状,记得看牙周科专科医生/牙医,他们会为你做详细的口腔检查

为什么要治疗牙龈疾病?

大家普遍认为,牙齿脱落是年龄所致,其实不然。牙周炎才是导致牙齿脱落的元凶。因此,要确保我们的天然牙完好无损,应及早治疗牙龈疾病。

牙龈疾病在初期阶段是可逆的,通过保持良好的口腔卫生即可轻松治愈。要养成良好的口腔护理习惯,如每天刷两次牙、每天用牙线洁牙、每年看2次牙周病医生/牙医,以及时清除已硬化为牙石的牙菌斑。

如果牙龈炎不及时治疗,任其发展为中度和重度牙周炎,那么牙齿支撑骨和组织将受到不可逆的损伤。接下来就需要专业的牙龈治疗,以免牙龈和骨骼进一步受损,并尽力保护剩余牙齿。

除了牙齿脱落,牙龈疾病也关乎严重的健康问题,例如心血管疾病、糖尿病、中风、妊娠并发症和痴呆。口腔健康和全身健康密切相关,这一点已经得到研究证实以及科学证据的有力支持。因此,通过治疗牙龈疾病,你也可以降低出现这些健康问题的风险。

牙龈治疗包括哪些类型?

治疗牙龈疾病的常见方法包括以下几种:

刮治和根面平整

刮治和根面平整也被称为深度清洁,与刮治和抛光相比,牙周病医生/牙医需要进行更多的深度工作。一般是在局部麻醉的情况下进行操作,从而将不适感降至最低。

刮治是清除牙齿表面和已经形成的牙周袋中的牙菌斑,可以使用手动器械或超声洁牙器进行刮治。接下来,要做根面平整,目的是使牙根变得光滑,帮助牙龈重新附着在牙齿上。

这一治疗可能需要多次就诊。

牙周翻瓣术

如果进行刮治和根面平整之后,牙龈依然有炎症,那么建议进行牙周翻瓣术。医生在治疗中会清除牙周袋的牙石,并通过缝合消除牙周袋,以使牙龈再次紧密地附着在牙齿周围。牙周袋变浅之后,刷牙及用牙线洁牙时会更容易、更舒适。

骨移植手术

如果牙龈疾病已经破坏了牙齿支撑骨,那么就需要进行骨移植或骨再生手术来修复受损部位。使用膜式过滤器、骨移植物或组织刺激蛋白等材料激活人体骨骼和周围组织再生的自然能力。

在哪里可以治疗牙龈疾病?

在新加坡可以通过牙周科专科医生或某些牙医治疗牙龈疾病。专门接受过牙周病手术培训的专科医生被称为牙周病医生。

新加坡认可的牙周病医生要额外接受三到四年的专门培训,积累临床案例(和经验),还要通过牙周病医生毕业考试。

Specialist Dental Group的牙周病医生经验丰富,可以满足你的牙龈治疗需求。

可以使用保健储蓄吗?

新加坡人和新加坡永久居民可以使用保健储蓄支付一些牙龈治疗手术费用,如骨移植手术。

咨询牙周病医生时,他/她会就申报金额给出建议。

怎样护理牙龈?

避免进行牙龈治疗的最佳方法是预防。可以通过以下方式保持良好的口腔卫生:

  • 每天刷2次牙,每次至少2分钟
  • 每年去看2次牙周病医生/牙医
  • 每天使用1次牙线

如果你抽烟的话,请戒烟。抽烟是造成牙龈疾病的罪魁祸首之一。戒烟有助于显著改善口腔卫生状况。

如果已经开始进行牙龈治疗,请根据牙周病医生的建议定期就诊。医生会为你制定牙周维护计划,你需要每3-4个月复诊一次。后续高频就诊是为了确保牙龈疾病不再复发。
