What Is Periodontics?

Periodontics is dental care for the gums. It is a dental specialty focused on the care, prevention, and treatment of all gum-related diseases. Periodontists also do specialized work, like placing dental implants. Periodontists are highly trained specialists with years of schooling and often many years of experience. 

Periodontists are slightly different from dentists. Dentists provide general care for your teeth and mouth, but periodontists specialize in the gums specifically, as this is often the root of major problems in the mouth. Our comprehensive gum care specialists in Henderson are able to handle complex cases, such as advanced gum disease, bone loss, and missing teeth. 

Comprehensive Gum Care in Henderson

As with all of our specialties, we take a patient-centered approach to periodontal care in Henderson. This means each patient is treated as an individual, not a number. We are careful to always create an individualized treatment plan for all of our patients, which ensures you get the best care at each step of your journey. 

We are proud to offer a welcoming and comfortable environment for patients. Even patients who have had anxiety about visiting the dentist in the past often find us to be the best periodontist in Henderson due to our welcoming and stress-free nature. 

Unlike some dentists offices, we also have a dedicated team to handle advanced gum care in Henderson. Along with our advanced technology we can use to make expert diagnosis and treatment, when you come to Absolute Dental, you are in the best hands and environment for success.

Our Periodontal Therapy Services in Henderson

We offer nearly any periodontal service you may need. From gum disease to missing teeth, we can help you achieve your happiest, healthiest smile, with a minimum of pain and disruption to your life. 

Services we offer include:

Scaling and Root Planing

Our scaling and root planing services in Henderson are a non-surgical procedure to treat gum disease. This is often the preferred procedure for treating the disease and often attempted first. The procedure removes tartar and bacteria from teeth and below the gumline. 

Once cleaned, the teeth roots are smoothed or “planed” to help the gums reattach to the teeth. For early-stage gum disease, this procedure is essential and sometimes paired with antibiotics or other medications.

Gum Grafting

Our gum grafting services in Henderson can help restore a healthy gumline and protect teeth from further damage. This surgical process helps restore lost gum tissue due to gum recession that can happen with certain diseases, habits, or age. In this process, gum tissue is taken from elsewhere in the mouth and refitted where the gum has receded. 

In addition to the cosmetic benefits, this helps protect teeth and ensures that teeth are not further lost or damaged. It can also reduce sensitivity in teeth and creates a more natural gumline that will look great.  

Periodontal Pocket Reduction

This procedure, colloquially known as flap surgery, can reduce the depth of pockets in your gums that can form next to the teeth with some diseases and conditions, such as gum disease. These pockets can provide a haven for bacteria that lead to further teeth, bone, and gum damage. 

During the procedure, the gums are lifted back to remove bacteria and other unwanted material, then fitted back into place, often with stitches. This helps reduce the risk of infection while sealing the gums again properly. 

Dental Bone Grafting

Our Henderson dental bone grafting services can help treat gum and bone disease. This process helps restore bone loss caused by periodontal disease, creating a stable foundation for dental implants and natural teeth. 

During the process, natural bone material from your own jaw or synthetic material is placed in areas where your bone has deteriorated and helps encourage new bone growth. This procedure is especially important for those who need dental implants, as a strong foundation in the jaw is necessary for success. 

Dental Implants

Our dental implants in Henderson are a long-term solution for missing teeth. In this procedure, titanium or ceramic posts are screwed into the jawbone to provide a mounting point for artificial teeth or other dental apparatuses. 

Periodontists are often the best professionals to perform these procedures, as they are uniquely trained and experienced when compared with a general dentist. A healthy jawbone is essential for this process, but implants can help restore face shape, tooth function, and appearance when this is undertaken. 

Periodontal Maintenance

After gum disease is treated initially, periodic maintenance is essential for long-term health of the gums and teeth. If this maintenance is not performed, gum disease can often reoccur. In some cases, this must happen at a shorter interval than recommended regular dentist visits, in some cases every three to four months. 

This type of maintenance is also more thorough than standard cleanings and is often performed by specialized staff. It is critical for long-term oral health and gum disease control.
