Periodontal Maintenance Therapy
Once active periodontal treatment has been completed, periodontal maintenance therapy is implemented to create and maintain stability of the gums and bone. Periodontal disease is a chronic condition caused by bacteria that is found in the deeper pockets around teeth. To prevent flare ups and recurrences of the condition, a frequent and regular maintenance interval is required. Periodontal Maintenance involves a comprehensive periodontal cleaning, tailored to your specific periodontal concerns. With continual assessments of your periodontal condition and modifications in therapy, periodontal stability can be maintained. Frequency of cleanings and specific treatment modalities are tailored to your individual periodontal needs.
