Periodontal surgery restores the look and function of teeth, gums, and bone damaged by severe gum disease. You should not anticipate any pain during the procedure, since anesthesia ensures you are completely asleep.
It’s common to feel a little sore and uncomfortable once the anesthesia wears off. Recovery usually takes one to two weeks, though it may take longer.
Our traveling periodontists provide in-house periodontal care at general dental offices, so you can receive specialized treatment without leaving your trusted dental practice.
