Periodontics (Complex Gum Treatment)

A clinical specialism within the discipline of Dentistry, Periodontics is concerned with the soft tissue and bone structures surrounding the teeth.

These parts of the dentition include the gums, the periodontal ligament and the alveolar bones that hold the teeth in place. The most common issues that Periodontists are specially trained to manage include gum disease, gingivitis, and periodontitis. They also treat peri-implantitis which is a condition where inflammatory bone loss occurs around the site of a Dental Implant.

Dental Professionals at Bond Dental offer a wide range of treatment options including Dental Implants, Endodontics, the treatment of dental pulp, and Prosthodontics, the management of dental prosthetics.

Periodontal Treatments

Providing patients with Preventative Dentistry Treatments can incorporate different aspects of oral hygiene. Periodontal Treatments that focus on the gums and surrounding tissue is as beneficial for your oral health as treatments for your teeth and bones.

Bond Dental offer various kinds of Periodontal Treatments:

• Laser Treatments – An alternative to Airflow Polishing, Periodontal Laser Treatments remove bacteria, promote the reattachment of soft tissue and reduce the possibility of gum damage.
• Pocket Reduction Procedures – Chronic Periodontal infections can lead to a deepening of gum pockets. By reducing the pocket and repairing damaged tissue, the effects of Periodontal disease can be reversed.
• Dental Implants – Teeth that are lost as a result of periodontal disease can be replaced using Dental Implants. This can be undertaken alongside other treatments such as Pocket Reduction to make sure any periodontal infection is fully resolved.
