Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

Non-surgical periodontal therapy is an effective, minimally invasive approach to treating gum disease (gingivitis and mild to moderate periodontitis). It focuses on controlling infection and reducing inflammation to maintain gum health.

Key Treatments:

  • Scaling and Root Planing: Deep cleaning to remove plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline and smooth the tooth roots.
  • Antimicrobial Therapy: Use of antibacterial rinses or localized antibiotics to control bacteria.
  • Laser Therapy: Helps remove bacteria and diseased tissue, promoting faster healing.
  • Oral Hygiene Education: Personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and oral care.

Benefits:

  • Minimally invasive with little discomfort.
  • Preserves natural teeth.
  • Cost-effective alternative to surgery.
  • Reduces gum inflammation and prevents disease progression.

Regular follow-ups and maintenance are key to keeping gum disease under control and ensuring long-term oral health.
