When periodontal disease grows in severity, you could not only experience sore, red, and bleeding gums, but the gums could begin to pull away from the teeth and recede. This makes your teeth appear long and uneven, and could expose sensitive portions of the tooth structure to cause tooth decay and dental infection. This could also increase the risk of periodontitis, the advanced stage of the disease linked to adult tooth loss. The factors behind the disease and recession include poor brushing and flossing habits, high sugar content in your diet, inflammatory illnesses, infrequent cleaning, the use of certain medications, and tobacco use. Our team can offer treatment with comfort and precision with advanced laser technology and the Pinhole Surgical Technique®.
Our team can start with dental lasers to modify the gum and underlying bone structure as needed in preparation for the treatment. Lasers can offer precision and comfort, and reduce the risk of swelling, infection, and bleeding. The lack of sutures means the area heals quickly too. When the smile is ready, we can begin the Pinhole Surgical Technique to get the process started. Our team will make a small pinhole in the gums and then add a special collagen material. We then manipulate the tissues so they cover the exposed portions of the roots, and in the process reshape the gum line to ensure proper symmetry and beauty. This is a conservative alternative to the traditional gum graft, and the procedure offers immediate results and a fast healing period.
Following these treatments, we can offer care to manage the disease and keep it in check in the years to come. For example, we can destroy harmful oral bacteria with antimicrobial medications and Ozone Therapy. To control plaque and tartar buildup, we can offer cleanings or Supportive Periodontal Maintenance every three to four months. If you have any questions about how our team will treat periodontal disease and help restore the health and beauty of your smile, then contact our team today to learn more.
