Advanced Solutions for Gum Health
Periodontal surgery focuses on restoring gum health and addressing the underlying causes of periodontal disease. At Sussex Dental Center, our expert team provides comprehensive care to improve both the health and appearance of your gums.
Bone Grafting for Jaw Health
Bone grafting is often recommended for patients experiencing bone loss due to advanced gum disease or missing teeth. This procedure helps regenerate bone tissue, restoring the jaw’s strength and creating a solid foundation for dental implants or natural teeth.
Treating Gum Disease with Periodontal Surgery
Severe gum disease (periodontitis) can damage the gums and surrounding bone. Our surgical treatments remove infected tissue, halt disease progression, and promote healing. Scaling, root planing, and pocket reduction are common approaches used during these procedures.
Osseous (Gum Surgery)
Osseous surgery, also known as pocket reduction surgery, is a procedure used to treat advanced gum disease (periodontitis). When bacteria and plaque build up below the gum line, they can create deep pockets between the gums and teeth, leading to bone loss and gum damage. Osseous surgery aims to eliminate these pockets by reshaping and smoothing the underlying bone to prevent bacteria from re-accumulating. This procedure not only halts the progression of gum disease but also helps preserve the stability of your teeth, promoting better oral health and preventing tooth loss.
Soft & Connective Tissue Grafting
Soft tissue grafting is used to repair receding gums, while connective tissue grafting strengthens the gums and enhances their appearance. These procedures protect tooth roots, improve sensitivity, and create a more balanced smile.
