There are numerous solutions to periodontal issues, and Dr. Eudoro Vallejo can help you make an informative decision about our options for non-surgical periodontal treatments in Hackensack, New Jersey. You can be assured that the quality care and attentiveness of our team at Advanced Family Dental Care will bring effective results. We will do a thorough examination regarding the best treatment for your gums, some of which include:
- Scaling and Root Planing: Scaling is a type of cleaning that removes plaque and calculus from the teeth at and slightly below the gum line. Root planing smooths root surfaces, allowing the supportive tissues to better reattach to the tooth surface. Often, this will be done with local anesthesia so your treatment can be relaxing and virtually pain-free.
- Antibiotic Treatment: Antibiotic treatments are available in many forms, including those which can be taken orally or applied directly to the surface of the gums. Antibiotics can be prescribed at a low dose for longer-lasting treatments, or as a short-term medication to deter bacteria from re-colonizing.
- Host Modulation Therapy: this treatment helps halt and reduce tissue destruction that periodontal bacteria can cause. It can also stabilize and help regrow damaged tissues to restore your oral health.
Don’t hesitate to call 201-457-9595 and make an appointment with our dentist regarding our periodontal treatments.
