Gum Surgeries
Gum Surgeries
The main cause of these diseases is bacterial plaque, a sticky, colorless film that constantly forms on your teeth. If plaque is not removed on a daily basis it can turn into a hard substance called calculus (tartar). When plaque and calculus are not removed the bacteria in plaque produce toxins (or poisons) that can destroy the supporting tissues and bone around the teeth.
As the diseases progress, the gum around the tooth becomes loose and separates away from the tooth resulting in deep areas called pockets. As these pockets deepen, more gum tissue and bone are destroyed and the teeth eventually become loose. If periodontal diseases are not treated, the teeth may need to be removed.
Our Treatments
Flap Surgery
Your teeth are at risk because of periodontal disease. It began with the buildup of plaque and tartar on your teeth, which may have resulted from insufficient brushing and flossing. Over time, the plaque and tartar have caused loss of the supporting tissue around some of your teeth.
When plaque builds up on a tooth, bacteria in the plaque attack the bone around the tooth as well as the fibers, which connect the tooth to the bone. As the fibers and bone are destroyed, a pocket or space forms between the gum and the tooth- an ideal site for more plaque to build up. Without proper hygiene, the process may continue, sometimes without symptoms, until the tooth is endangered.
A Case of FLAP Surgery
LANAP
LANAP treatment is Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure mainly is a surgical therapy procedure used for the treatment of periodontitis that is intended to work through regeneration rather than resection. It is a well-known therapy for the gum diseases.
Pocket Decontamination
Manik Dental clinic is also involved in delivering better and quality output. At every stage of the treatment we perform the laser pocket decontamination procedure to remove the bacterial infection. The procedure also includes tracing the laser around the gum line of each tooth quickly and killing the gums faster to avoid any injury.
