When periodontal disease progresses beyond the scope of basic treatments, surgical intervention becomes necessary. At Encinitas Dental Design, our periodontist in Encinitas, California, offers advanced surgical periodontal treatment to restore gum health, preserve natural teeth and prevent further deterioration of oral structures. These procedures are typically recommended for patients with severe gum disease, deep periodontal pockets, bone loss or areas of gum detachment.
Advanced Gum Care When Nonsurgical Options Are Not Enough
Surgical periodontal treatment may include procedures such as pocket reduction surgery, regenerative therapy, bone grafting or soft tissue grafting. The goal is to eliminate bacteria from deep below the gumline, reduce inflammation, repair damage and support the long-term health of your teeth and gums. Our periodontist evaluates each case with detailed imaging and clinical assessment to develop a treatment plan tailored to the extent of disease and the individual’s oral health goals.
We understand that surgery may sound intimidating, but our team is dedicated to making the process comfortable, clear and well-supported. Local anesthesia and sedation options are available to ensure patient comfort. Recovery instructions are thoroughly explained, and follow-up care is part of every treatment plan.
