Surgical Periodontal Treatment

In case of advanced periodontits you may require our surgical treatments such as:

Flap Surgery

• Also known as pocket reduction surgery, when dentis makes an incision and gently moves gums away from your teeth to see deep inside the infection and thoroughly clean your tooth roots. After that gum tissues are repositioned with stitches.

Bone Grafting

• When gum disease destroys the bone surrounding the tooth root, dentists place a bone graft to regenerate bone in that area. Bone tissues are often used from a bone and tissue bank or the patient’s own.​

Gum Grafting

• To treat gum recession, periodontists add tissue to the area where the gums are thin.​

Laser Therapy (LANAP)

• Laser-assisted new attachment procedure(LANAP) is a minimally invasive laser treatment to remove bacteria and infection from the gums while promoting tissue regeneration.
