Deep Cleaning
Deep cleaning is a dental procedure that treats periodontal disease, an infection of the gum and bone that support your teeth. Unlike a regular dental cleaning, a deep cleaning involves cleaning tartar, plaque and toxins from the teeth and gums. It is typically done with Local Anesthetic.
Gum Graft
Gum grafting is a surgical procedure performed to address receding gums and prevent further gum recession. During the procedure, tissue from the roof of the mouth or a donor source is used to augment the gum tissue where it has receded. Gum grafts can improve the aesthetic appearance of the smile, reduce tooth sensitivity, and protect against potential tooth loss due to gum recession.
Periodontal Flap Surgery
Periodontal flap surgery is a procedure used to treat advanced gum disease by accessing the roots of the teeth. During the surgery, the gums are lifted back, allowing the dentist to remove tartar and bacteria from the roots and then reposition the gums for proper healing. This procedure can help halt the progression of gum disease and promote the regeneration of healthy gum tissue.
Bone Graft
Dental bone grafting is a procedure used to augment the jawbone’s volume and density. This technique is often necessary before dental implant surgery to ensure there is enough bone to support the implant. During the procedure, bone graft material is placed in the deficient area of the jawbone to stimulate new bone growth.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Wisdom teeth extraction is a surgical procedure performed to remove the third set of molars, known as wisdom teeth. Often recommended due to impaction, crowding, or infection, this procedure is typically carried out under local or general anesthesia by an oral surgeon or dentist.
