Non-Surgical Periodontics
My staff and I believe that upon examination if we detect early stages of periodontal disease, that with proper patient hygiene technique and deep scaling by the hygienist we can stop the progression and prevent its return.
Use of an electric toothbrush and dental floss are standard armemmentarium to overcome the disease. Dietary concerns are addressed and discussed. After the dental hygienist has completed removing calcified deposits and altered the biofilm the patient is prescribed a liquid antibacterial solution to be used in conjunction with the electric toothbrush daily until the periodontial maintenance visit when a re-evaluation will take place.
