Periodontal Plastic Surgery: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is periodontal plastic surgery?
Periodontal plastic surgery is not one treatment. Rather, it is a collection of procedures intertwined in restoring natural beauty to the smile and correcting cosmetic issues.
Why would I need cosmetic treatment?
You may seek out specialty expertise in such corrective procedures for numerous reasons. You may be a good candidate for treatment due to the effects of periodontal or gum disease. Traumatic injuries and congenital conditions or birth defects can also be highly disfiguring and impact aesthetics. Now available in periodontics, we can correct gum and jawbone defects to rebuild a naturally beautiful smile and appearance.
How do you treat the gums?
Common gum treatments include esthetic crown lengthening, also known as a “gum lift.” This treatment may be recommended to balance a “gummy” smile. Gum grafts can also restore the symmetry of a gumline that has sustained damage due to conditions like periodontal disease. Pocket reduction may resolve the complications associated with gum disease that can affect the appearance of the smile, including brown gums and ridge indentations.
How do you treat the jawbone?
Grafting procedures can build up the jaw’s structure and restore facial support. These procedures include sinus augmentation for patients with bone loss in the upper dental arch that might otherwise preclude them from dental implants. Ridge modification corrects jawbone deformities from disease, injuries, and congenital conditions. Bone grafts largely resolve the loss of bone or the effects of resorption following tooth loss.
