Why Periodontal Surgery?

Periodontal surgery, also known as gum surgery, focuses on treating diseases and conditions affecting the gums and the bone supporting your teeth. When non-surgical treatments are insufficient, surgical interventions become necessary to eliminate infection, regenerate lost tissue, and restore the health and stability of your periodontium. At Maltepe Dental Clinic, our dedicated periodontists are experts in advanced surgical techniques, committed to preserving your natural teeth, improving your oral health, and enhancing the aesthetics of your gum line.

Key Benefits of Periodontal Surgery

  • Halts Disease Progression Effectively removes deep infection and stops the advancement of gum disease.
  • Regenerates Lost Tissue: Promotes the regrowth of bone and gum tissue lost due to periodontitis.
  • Reduces Pocket Depth: Makes it easier to clean and maintain healthy gums, preventing recurrence.
  • Saves Natural Teeth: Crucial for preserving teeth that are at risk of being lost due to advanced gum disease.
  • Improves Aesthetics: Corrects issues like gum recession or uneven gum lines for a more balanced smile.
  • Reduces Sensitivity: Covers exposed tooth roots, alleviating sensitivity to hot and cold.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Periodontal Surgery

Is periodontal surgery painful?

Procedures are performed under local anesthesia, ensuring you feel no pain during the surgery. Post-operative discomfort is managed with prescribed medication.

How long is the recovery after gum surgery?

Recovery varies depending on the procedure. Most patients experience mild discomfort for a few days, with full healing taking several weeks to months.

What causes gum disease?

Gum disease is primarily caused by bacterial plaque buildup, but factors like genetics, smoking, certain medications, and systemic diseases can also contribute.

Can gum tissue grow back naturally?

Once gum tissue is lost due to recession, it generally does not grow back naturally. Surgical procedures, such as gum grafting, are necessary to restore it.

Complementary Treatments for Comprehensive Oral Health

Depending on your needs, other treatments may complement your periodontal treatment.
