Deep cleaning
After a full mouth and x-ray examination, our specialist will evaluate if there need to go deeper than a regular cleaning; if that is the case after full local anesthesia, a combination of manual instruments and ultrasonic device gently will get rid of all the harmful bacteria responsible of the gum disease. Healthy gums are essential before dental implant placement.
Bone and osseous surgery
In some cases, the periodontal disease affects really deep all the supporting tissues of your teeth; in that case, bone surgery is needed to save most of your teeth; it may be combined with antibiotic treatment and bone graft procedures to reconstruct the damaged tissues.
Gum surgery
The gummy smile can be treated with a very simple surgical procedure, it’s not invasive, and the recovery is fast, ask our specialist if you are a candidate for this treatment.
FAQS
What are the symptoms of gum disease?
Common symptoms of gum disease include bleeding gums while brushing, persistent bad breath, loose or shifting teeth, swollen or tender gums, and receding gum lines. If you notice any of these signs, our periodontics team in Tijuana recommends scheduling an evaluation as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
Is gum disease common?
Yes. Gum disease affects millions of adults in the United States and Mexico. Many patients are unaware they have it until symptoms become severe. Regular periodontics cleanings every six months at Dental Project Mexico are the most effective way to prevent and control gum disease.
How often do I need a cleaning?
Our periodontics specialists recommend a routine cleaning every six months for most patients. Patients with active gum disease may need deep cleanings every 3 to 4 months until the condition is controlled.
Can I lose my teeth if I don't treat my gum disease?
Yes. Untreated periodontal disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults. Advanced gum disease destroys the bone and tissue that support your teeth. Early periodontics treatment at our Tijuana clinic can prevent tooth loss and save most teeth even in advanced cases.
