Periodontal surgery is a plastic (reshaping) surgical procedure designed to restore and regenerate normal form and function to lost and damaged periodontal structures which support the teeth (the gum tissue, periodontal ligament and bone). Periodontal disease is detected when your dentist physically and visually evaluates the gingival (gum) tissues, probes to determine whether the attachment levels to the teeth are normal or abnormal, and evaluates bone changes through dental radiographs (x-rays). Depending on these findings, along with your general health status and health history, we reach a proper diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases.
