Questions? Find the Answer

What is osseous surgery?

Osseous surgery at Medford Periodontics is a precise surgical procedure aimed at reshaping the bone around the teeth, which have been affected by periodontal disease. This technique helps in reducing pocket depth and aids in the prevention of disease progression.

What considerations are made before osseous resective surgery?

Before recommending osseous resective surgery, we assess various factors including the depth of periodontal pockets, the presence and extent of inflammation, and the specific pattern of bone loss. This comprehensive evaluation ensures that osseous surgery is tailored to effectively address your periodontal needs.

What is pocket reduction surgery?

This procedure involves adjusting the gum tissue to decrease the depth of periodontal pockets. This minimally invasive procedure helps in effectively treating periodontal disease and preventing it from worsening.

How does periodontal regeneration work, and what technologies are involved?

Periodontal regeneration involves surgical procedures designed to regenerate lost bone and tissue supporting the teeth. At Medford Periodontics, we use a minimally invasive approach complemented by advanced biomaterials such as bone grafts, membranes, and growth factors. These technologies and techniques are employed to stimulate and optimize the body’s natural healing processes, leading to more predictable and successful outcomes.

What is dental crown lengthening and when is it necessary?

Dental crown lengthening involves removing excess gum tissue to expose more of the tooth’s crown, addressing issues such as a gummy smile or uneven gum line. This procedure is recommended when the gums cover too much of some teeth while leaving others the right length.

Who is a good candidate for periodontal regeneration procedures?

Candidates ideal for periodontal regeneration are those with good home care practices, specific patterns of bone defects, and those who are compliant with a supportive periodontal therapy protocol.

How do pre-prosthetic procedures complement restorative dentistry?

Our pre-prosthetic procedures, including clinical crown lengthening and tissue recontouring, are performed with the final restorative outcomes in mind. By preparing the oral foundation properly, we ensure that subsequent restorative treatments, such as crowns or bridges, have the best possible aesthetic and functional outcomes.
