Conservative Treatment

Dr Elly Yassa prides herself in treating most forms of gum disease using a conservative approach.

This involves removing plaque and calculus above and below the gumline. This is scaling and root planning. It is one of the most important aspects of gum treatment as it helps resolve the inflammation and infection around the gums.

Dr Elly Yassa will also show you how to maintain the health of your gums through customized oral hygiene techniques tailored to your needs.

Surgical Treatment

If after a 3-6 month review there are still certain areas that have not resolved then gum surgery may be required to better access and clean the deep pockets.
