In order to restore your gums, Dr. WonJoon Lee may need to perform periodontal surgery. If you are suffering from periodontal disease, gum surgery is one treatment option. At Ocean Dental, you can count on our talented dentist and team to ensure that you have a comfortable and successful procedure. We want our patients to explore our periodontal surgical options and then talk with us to see which one will be the best to improve the function, health and appearance of your jaw and overall smile.

What to Expect During Your Evaluation

Before proceeding, you will need to have an examination to determine if oral surgery is the best treatment choice for you. If surgery is the best option, we will help you decide which type of surgery will be the most effective. One of our more non-invasive treatments is laser gum treatment. This procedure allows us to treat gum disease without anesthetics or bulky drills.

In more severe cases, other surgeries, such as flap surgery or gum grafts, may be necessary to restore your gums and protect your teeth. Bone grafting is another option that can regenerate lost bone and improve jaw structure. These treatments help stabilize teeth and reduce the risk of further complications.

Benefits of Gum Surgery

Periodontal surgery offers several key benefits:

  • Stabilizes teeth: Prevents tooth loss by providing stronger support.
  • Reduces gum recession: Restores tissue to protect exposed tooth roots.
  • Improves oral health: Makes it easier to manage gum health and hygiene.
  • Prevents further complications: Treats infections and protects against jawbone loss.
  • Enhances appearance: Restores the natural look of your gums and smile.
