How can we treat Periodontal Disease?

Scaling and Root Planing:

• It is a non-surgical gum therapy, commonly known as “deep cleaning” designed to treat periodontal disease and improve the health of your gums and teeth.
• It is a periodontal treatment that scales beneath the gumline to remove plaque, tartar and other bacterial toxins from periodontal pockets.
• Root planing smooths the tooth root surfaces to prevent the reattachment of harmful toxins and promote gum tissue healing.

Antibiotic Therapy:

• Application of local antibiotics to eliminate bacteria, treat gum infection and reduce gum inflammation is a part of periodontal gum treatment.

Periodontal Maintenance:

• After initial Scaling and Root Planing treatment, regular ongoing periodontal maintenance therapy and good at-home oral care is necessary to prevent relapse and restoring gum health, ensuring that your gums remain in optimal condition.
• Early intervention helps to prevent gum disease, stop the progression of gum issues and maintain gum health.
