Gum Disease Therapy
Affordable gum disease therapy is provided at the Broward county dental office of Dr. Saba Rizvi.
Dental care begins with the treatment and control of gum disease. Our gum disease therapy plan includes the following:
Gum Disease Therapy Involves:
Scaling and Root Planing:
Careful cleaning of the root surfaces to remove plaque and tartar from deep periodontal pockets and to smooth the tooth root to remove the bacterial toxins.
Arestin:
It is a locally administered antibiotic that helps fight bacteria. It is indicated as an adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing for reduction of pocket depths in patients with adult perodontitis.
Maintenance:
Once periodontal treatment is completed it is extremely important patients continue their periodontal cleanings on a regular basis. This along with proper home care and oral hygiene will give the best chance for preventing recurrence of disease and maintaining long term periodontal health.
