Periodontal Surgery
Healthy gums are the foundation of a strong, confident smile. But when gum disease reaches an advanced stage, it can start affecting not just your gums, but also the bone that supports your teeth. If you’re noticing bleeding gums, swelling, or even slight looseness in your teeth, it may be time to consider periodontal surgery.vThis treatment is designed to gently remove infection, repair damaged tissue, and restore your gum health—so you can keep your natural teeth for years to come.
How Periodontal Surgery Helps
Periodontal procedures are tailored to your specific condition. Depending on your needs, your dentist may recommend:
- Flap Surgery: To carefully clean deep infection beneath the gums
- Bone Grafting: To rebuild bone that has been lost due to gum disease
- Gum Grafting: To cover exposed roots and protect sensitive teeth
- Laser Treatment: A modern, minimally invasive option for faster healing
- Each step is focused on one goal—bringing your gums back to a healthy, stable condition.
When Should You See a Dentist?
You don’t have to wait for severe pain. Early signs often include:
- Gums that bleed while brushing or eating
- Red, swollen, or tender gums
- Persistent bad breath
- Gums pulling away from teeth
- Teeth that feel slightly loose
- Catching these signs early can make treatment simpler and more effective
