Healthy Gums with Comprehensive Periodontal Care

Periodontal Maintenance By
Our Dentist In Lexington Park, MD

Periodontal maintenance therapy is an ongoing program designed to prevent periodontal disease in the gum tissue and bone. Periodontal maintenance is usually necessary for patients who are susceptible to periodontal disease or who have been treated for gum disease. Maintenance visits to the periodontist will help prevent additional dental problems in the future. We use a laser procedure to treat deep pockets. Treating the disease in its early stages saves you not only discomfort but also money!

Scaling and Root Planing

Deep pockets form around the gums when there is an excessive amount of plaque and tartar buildup around the base of the tooth. The space attracts bacteria which in turn causes inflammation of the tissue and leads to gum disease. An effective treatment for patients with moderate gum disease, scaling and root planing therapy is a nonsurgical periodontal treatment that involves deep cleaning the gums so the gums can reattach to the surface of the tooth. We use special tools to remove plaque and calculus deposits that have built up around the base of the tooth. This eliminates inflammation of the tissue and can reduce pocket depth by up to three millimeters.

Periodontal Maintenance

Our doctors may recommend periodontal maintenance as part of your treatment plan, a series of deep cleaning treatments and check-ups to preserve gum health after gum disease. We will see you every few months to make sure the infection is not returning and perform a deep cleaning procedure to clean deep into the pockets. We use a laser procedure to treat deep pockets.
