Scaling and Flap Surgery is an advanced gum treatment designed to treat periodontal disease and improve overall oral health. This procedure involves deep cleaning below the gum line to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria, preventing further gum recession and tooth loss.
Flap surgery is performed when deep pockets form between the gums and teeth due to severe gum infection. The procedure involves lifting the gums to access the infected areas, cleaning them thoroughly, and then securing the gums back in place for proper healing. This ensures a strong foundation for your teeth and enhances gum health.
Key Benefits of Scaling & Flap Surgery
This procedure offers several benefits, including preventing gum disease progression, reducing bad breath caused by bacteria buildup, and protecting the jawbone from deterioration. It also helps in preserving natural teeth by eliminating infections that could lead to tooth loss.
By undergoing Scaling and Flap Surgery, patients can experience improved oral hygiene, healthier gums, and a more confident smile.
