Understanding Your
Periodontal Surgery Procedure
Dr. Esmael Valdez begins with a thorough examination and X-rays to determine the extent of periodontal damage. During the procedure, infected gum tissue is carefully removed, and tooth roots are cleaned of bacterial deposits. The surgical site is then sutured to promote proper healing and tissue reattachment. Recovery typically involves managing discomfort with prescribed medications and following specific oral hygiene instructions to ensure optimal healing outcomes.
