What Is Periodontal Surgery?

Periodontal surgery is a specialized treatment used to manage advanced gum disease and repair damage to the gums and supporting bone around your teeth. The goal is to eliminate infection, protect your natural teeth, and improve your overall oral health.

Types of Gum Surgery

We offer a range of gum disease treatments in Guelph, including:

  • Flap surgery (deep cleaning) — Lifts the gums to remove bacteria and tartar from deep below the gumline
  • Gum grafting — Covers exposed tooth roots, helps reduce sensitivity, and protects against further recession
  • Crown lengthening — Reshapes the gumline to improve both function and appearance

Benefits of Periodontal Surgery

  • Stops the progression of gum disease
  • Helps prevent tooth loss
  • Reduces gum inflammation and infection
  • Restores a healthier, more natural-looking smile
  • Improves long-term oral health
Your Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about your visit to our Guelph clinic.

How do I know if I need periodontal surgery?

Signs of advanced gum disease can include persistent bleeding, swelling, receding gums, or looseness in your teeth. An exam with your dentist can confirm whether periodontal surgery is the right next step.

Does periodontal surgery hurt?

The procedure is performed with local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Some soreness and swelling are common for a few days afterward.

What's the difference between flap surgery, gum grafting, and crown lengthening?

Flap surgery cleans deep below the gumline, gum grafting covers exposed roots to reduce sensitivity and recession, and crown lengthening reshapes the gumline for function or appearance. Your dentist will recommend the right option based on your specific case.

How long does recovery take after periodontal surgery?

Recovery time varies by procedure and individual healing, but most patients see improvement within a couple of weeks. Your dentist will walk you through aftercare specific to your treatment.

Are periodontal surgery procedures covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by plan — our team can help you check your benefits before your visit.

Do you accept new patients?

Yes. New patients are always welcome, and we offer a $99 new patient cleaning special that includes an exam and X-rays.
