Flap Surgeries Through Bone Augmentation.

Gum disease also known as periodontal disease, varies from simple gum inflammation to a more destructive disease which can eventually result in tooth loss. One of the main causes of gum disease is a build-up of bacteria on teeth and around the gums. If these bacteria aren’t removed by a regular oral care routine of brushing and flossing, they can cause gum inflammation (gingivitis). Left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, eventually lead to tooth loss and other health problems which are more serious.

In some patients, gum infection can break down the bone, resulting in bony defects which weaken the tooth. In such scenarios, regeneration with biocompatible materials like bone grafts, membranes, growth mediators to help body regrow lost bone and increase life of tooth.

Our periodontists can also help engineer an esthetic gingival display correcting any defects in position, margins, colour and thickness, restoring harmony to your facial esthetics. These include a variety of procedures like gum depigmentation, closure of black triangles, root coverage procedures, correction of enlarged gums and many more.
