Treatment of chronic periodontal disorders: A general practitioners perspective

Abstract

A greater number of patients will experience gums-associated disorders at one or the other point in their lifetime and also a section of the community is suspected to suffer from advanced gum associated disorders. Sound treatment is essential in dental practice (i.e. dental practitioner’s perspective). A comprehensive layout of treatment which includes gum assessment, treatment, revisit of long-standing periodontitis cases in regular dental care, and treatment is discussed in this review.
