It is unknown what exactly causes eye blisters, but they are most common in the elderly and generally occur in those who spend a lot of time outdoors without proper sun protection for the eyes. The smallest type of eye blister, the pterygium, is generally painless and may come in small clumps of tiny clear lesions. They may occur almost anywhere on the eye, including the cornea, and can sometimes cause temporary vision changes.
About Periodontists (gums) With a variety of medical practitioners specializing in oral care, a Periodontist specializes in the health of the gums and tissue surrounding the teeth. Periodontists provide diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, oral inflammation and infection of the gums.
This specialty training has granted periodontists expertise in the treatment of gums and other teeth supporting structures. If your periodontist discovers that you have periodontal disease, he or she has access to both surgical procedures and non-surgical procedures to best treat your condition. Surgical procedures include contouring of your teeth or gums, and work that regenerates your teeth's supporting bones. Common non-surgical procedures are scaling and root planing. Periodontists truly have a well-rounded arsenal in the fight against periodontal disease! Taking the necessary steps to care for your teeth and gums by brushing and flossing, as well as regular preventative care at a general dentist, can prevent often costly trips to periodontists.
