Periodontics
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is an inflammatory condition caused by plaque and bacteria buildup around the gums. If left untreated, it can progress from mild gum inflammation (gingivitis) to more severe forms like periodontitis, which can lead to bone loss, receding gums, and eventually tooth loss. However, with early intervention and proper care, periodontal disease is preventable and manageable.
At Beyond 32, we provide you comprehensive care for your gum health and beyond.
Our Approach to Periodontal Care
We provide a full spectrum of periodontal services, tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient. Whether you're visiting us for preventive care or more complex treatments, we are committed to delivering the highest standard of care using the latest technologies and minimally invasive techniques. Our periodontal services include:
- Comprehensive gum assessments: Early detection is key to preventing gum disease. We offer thorough evaluations of your gums and supporting structures to identify any potential issues.
- Non-surgical treatments: For early-stage gum disease, we focus on non-invasive treatments like professional cleaning, scaling, and root planing (deep cleanings) to remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline, promoting healthy tissue regeneration.
- Surgical treatments: In more advanced cases, our periodontist is skilled in performing procedures such as pocket reduction surgery, gum grafting to treat receding gums, and bone regeneration treatments to restore lost bone tissue.
- Maintenance and education: Maintaining gum health is an ongoing process. We work closely with patients to develop personalized maintenance plans that include regular check-ups and cleanings, as well as guidance on effective at-home care to prevent the recurrence of periodontal disease.
