When periodontal disease damages your oral health and smile, our periodontist may recommend regenerative treatments to halt the progression of the disease and help you regain your oral health. Regenerative treatments are designed to restore your oral health and save your teeth, gums and supporting oral structures. Our periodontist will carefully evaluate your entire mouth to determine the severity of the disease and create a customized treatment plan that meets your needs.

 

Common regenerative periodontal treatments include:

• Bone Grafting – We can use bone tissue from another part of your jaw, a tissue bank or artificial material to strengthen your jawbone. This treatment may be recommended before dental implant placement.
• Gum Grafting – If you have lost a significant amount of gum tissue due to periodontal disease, we can transplant soft tissue from other areas of your gums or your hard palate to restore the health and even the appearance of your gums.
