Regenerative Procedures

Periodontal disease is an extremely serious progressive condition which can lead to tooth loss if left untreated.  Periodontal disease occurs when a bacterial infection in the gum pockets causes the bone and gum tissue to recede away from the teeth.  The quality and quantity of bone and gum tissue is greatly reduced as the gum pockets continue to deepen.  Fortunately, prompt diagnosis combined with effective regenerative procedures can halt the progression of the disease and save the teeth.

 

The materials that are used to regenerate the lost tissues include:

 

Bone Graft -

• Autogenous ( Patient’s own bone)
• Allograft (Human donated bone)
• Xenograft (Bovine bone)

Emdogain - Growth factors to regenerate lost periodontal ligaments, connective    tissue and bone.

Membranes - Resorbable or non resorbable collagen material to cover bone graft

Platelet Rich Plasma Growth Factor
