Periodontal Care
The periodontium includes gums, alveolar bone, ligaments and cement.
Periodontal disease treatments seek to re-establish periodontal health and to preserve it in the long-term:
- Periodontal infection or abscess treatment
- Desensitizing teeth which are hypersensitive to the cold, or gravely exposed teeth
- Gingival curetage or deep cleaning
- Gingival grafting (for gingival recession)
- Gum problem remodelling (gingivectomy or gingivoplasty)
