Periodontal Therapy (Gum Treatment)
Sore, bleeding gums indicate the beginnings of Periodontal Disease. If left
untreated, discomfort, bad breath, and eventual tooth loss will result.
At City Dental Clinic we think that periodontal health should be achieved
in the least invasive and most cost-effective manner. This is often accomplished
through non-surgical periodontal treatment, including scaling and root planing
(a careful cleaning of the root surfaces to remove plaque and tartar from
deep periodontal pockets and to smooth the tooth root to remove bacterial
toxins), followed by adjunctive therapy such as local delivery antimicrobials
and host modulation, as needed on a case-by-case basis.
Non-surgical therapy does have its limitations, however. A surgery may be
indicated to restore periodontal anatomy damaged by periodontal diseases
and to facilitate oral hygiene practices, when the tissue around your teeth
is unhealthy and cannot be repaired with non-surgical treatment.
We perform various treatments to improve bone and paradontium condition:
- Curettage
- Gingivectomy, lobe treatments
- Guided tissue regeneration (GTR)
- Pocket Reduction Procedures
- Crown Lengthening
- Soft Tissue Grafts …
All these treatments aim is to cleaning from bacteria, root and gingivitis
pocket amplification, gum and bone correction and reconstruction of lost
bone and paradontium soft tissue.
In addition to this procedures, we can also perform cosmetic procedures to enhance your smile. Oftentimes, patients who pursue cosmetic procedures
notice improved function as well.
Doctors at City Dental Clinic are skilled at treating various stages of gum disease to return your mouth to a healthy state.
