Periodontal Flap Surgery

Periodontal Flap Surgery

Periodontal Flap Surgery is an advanced gum treatment designed to manage and eliminate deep-seated infection, inflammation, and bone loss caused by periodontal disease. When routine cleaning or scaling cannot reach the deeper layers of the gum tissues, flap surgery allows dentists to gain direct access to the tooth roots and underlying bone — enabling thorough cleaning, infection control, and precise gum tissue reshaping.

The procedure involves gently lifting a section of the gum to remove plaque, tartar, and diseased tissue from the tooth roots. Once the area is disinfected and smoothed, the gum is repositioned and sutured securely, allowing for faster healing and healthier tissue reattachment.
