Flap Surgery
Flap surgery is an advanced periodontal treatment used to treat gum disease and restore gum health. At Scope Dental Clinics, flap surgery helps remove deep-seated infection, reduce gum pockets, and protect teeth from further damage while improving overall oral health.
What is Flap Surgery?
Flap surgery is a gum treatment in which the gums are gently lifted to allow deep cleaning of infected areas around the teeth and roots. After cleaning, the gums are repositioned to promote healing and reduce periodontal pockets.
Why is Flap Surgery Needed?
Flap surgery is recommended for patients with advanced gum disease where regular cleaning is not sufficient. It helps prevent tooth loss, control infection, and maintain healthy gums.
Benefits of Flap Surgery
Flap surgery removes infection, reduces gum pockets, prevents further bone loss, and improves gum health. It enhances oral hygiene effectiveness and helps preserve natural teeth.
