What is flap surgery?
In flap surgery, the gum is gently lifted away from the teeth so the roots and underlying bone can be cleaned thoroughly. Plaque, tartar, and infected tissue are removed from deep pockets, and the gum is then stitched back in place to heal.
The Problem
Signs that may call for flap surgery.
Swollen, red, or bleeding gums
Receding gums exposing tooth roots
Persistent bad breath
Loosening teeth from bone loss
Pus between the gum and tooth
Why flap surgery
Deep cleaning where brushing can't reach.
- Thorough cleaning of deep gum pockets
- Stops gum disease progressing
