Case 6: Periodontal Surgery Alternative
Severe periodontal disease had caused this woman's top front tooth to become very loose. Traditional periodontal surgery was not a good option because it would have negatively affected her appearance. Her options seemed limited to an extraction followed by the placement of a bridge or an implant with porcelain crown.
She chose to have one short, easy appointment of non-surgical perioscopy, a periodontal surgery alternative. Just four weeks later, her tooth was no longer loose. She was thrilled with the results, especially since she had no pain or sensitivity. She also saved thousands of dollars by avoiding an extraction of this tooth followed by an implant or bridge.
This patient's tooth has remained stable and healthy for the long term (over 7yrs). Our results stand the test of time, the ultimate measure of success!
