Specialized Periodontal Maintenance

Preserve The Progress You Have Made

Your treatment in our office has primarily been to remove the bacteria that grow below or at the gum line of your teeth. Please note that periodontal disease does not "go away." If the plaque is not removed on a daily basis, your periodontal disease will flare up again, possibly necessitating a more radical approach to therapy with a poorer prognosis and greater potential for tooth loss. For this reason it is very important that you follow through with preventative maintenance appointments so that any recurrent gum problems can be detected and treated early.

Drs. Hakimi/Ahmad and your hygienist will perform a thorough examination and scaling to remove the bacterial plaque and tartar from above and below your gums.

The goal of periodontal therapy is to control disease progression since it can not be cured. Keeping scheduled appointments and following our instructions are instrumental in our joint effort to obtain a successful result. Remember, this time is reserved just for you and plays a valuable role in your periodontal health.
