Healthy Teeth, Healthy Life:Understanding and Treating Periodontitis

Dear Patients,

Periodontitis, also known as gum disease, is a widespread chronic inflammation of the periodontium.
It affects the gums, periodontal ligaments and jawbone. If left untreated, it can lead to gum and bone recession, loose teeth or even tooth loss. It also has an impact on general health: periodontal disease increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, makes it more difficult to control blood sugar in diabetes and can promote inflammation in the lungs, intestines or nervous system.

What is  periodontitis?

What is  periodontitis?

Periodontitis is caused by bacterial plaque which triggers an immune response. If left untreated, the inflammatory processes gradually destroy the surrounding tissue. Early diagnosis and treatment are therefore crucial to prevent permanent damage.

Holistic therapy  at Alpstein Clinic

At Alpstein Clinic, we pursue a comprehensive treatment concept that combines modern dentistry with biological and natural approaches.

  • Manual cleaning / Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT): Gentle and thorough removal of plaque and tartar
  • Ozone therapy: Reduces harmful bacteria without side effects
  • Laser therapy: Precise and gentle treatment of inflamed tissue
  • Aromatherapy with essential oils: Natural anti-inflammatory effects that promote well-being
  • PRF therapy (Platelet-Rich Fibrin): Supports healing with the body’s own growth factors

Healthy routines for sustainable results

Consistent oral care at home is key to long-term treatment success.

Brush your teeth
thoroughly twice a day

Clean interdental spaces daily (floss or interdental brushes)

Perform oil pulling with your personalized essential oil blend

Use targeted oral care products and probiotics

Recall appointments:  prevention for the future

As periodontitis is a chronic disease, regular check-ups are essential.

At individually determined intervals, we check your oral health, remove plaque and adjust the treatment if necessary. In this way, we ensure long-term stability and healthy gums.

Conclusion 

Periodontitis is not inevitable. With modern therapy, consistent home care and regular professional check-ups, inflammation can be successfully treated and oral health maintained in the long term.
A healthy mouth always contributes to overall well-being and vitality.

Zweite StufeAusleiten und Entlasten

Nun konzentrieren wir uns auf ein ausgeglichenes inneres Milieu des Körpers und schaffen damit die Basis für einen Heilungserfolg. Wichtige Instrumente sind dabei die Zahnsanierung, die Darmsanierung oder die Entgiftung der Organe. In dieser Phase setzen wir die Blut-Plasma-Doppelmembran-Filtration (INUSpherese®) und eine ganzheitliche Schmerztherapie ein und reduzieren schrittweise nebenwirkungsreiche Medikamente der konventionellen Medizin.

Important instruments here are dental cleansing, intestinal cleansing and detoxification of the organs. In this phase, we use blood plasma double membrane filtration (INUSpheresis® ) and holistic pain therapy and gradually reduce the use of conventional medicines that have many side effects.

Stage oneAnalyse causes

In the first step, we work with you to get to the bottom of the possible causes of your complaints. We examine possible interference fields, toxic loads, environmental factors, deficiencies, malnutrition and stress factors. This is followed by a comprehensive physical and dental examination. This is followed by further diagnostic measures such as blood, stool, saliva and urine tests, thermography and other tools.
