Periodontal flap surgery, also known as pocket depth reduction or gingival flap surgery, is a surgical procedure used to treat advanced stages of gum disease. This technique involves lifting the gums to access and clean the tooth roots and underlying bone.
Why Periodontal Flap Surgery?
Deep Cleaning : Targets hard-to-reach areas for a thorough cleaning, removing bacteria and plaque.
Bone Reshaping : Allows for reshaping of the bone, promoting better support for your teeth.
Pocket Reduction : Keep your aligners clean. While you brush make sure that you brush your aligners in the same way
