Gingivectomy Procedure
During a gingivectomy procedure, several steps are involved to ensure the successful removal of excess gum tissue and improve overall gum health. Here is a brief overview of the procedure:
Examination and Diagnosis:
Our skilled dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your gums to assess the extent of the problem and determine the areas that require treatment. X-rays may be taken to evaluate the underlying bone structure.
Anesthesia:
Local anesthesia will be administered to numb the treatment area and ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Sedation options may also be available for anxious or apprehensive patients.
Incision and Removal:
Using precise surgical instruments, the dentist will make small incisions in the targeted areas of the gums to access the excess tissue. The overgrown or diseased gum tissue will be carefully removed to achieve the desired gum contour.
Gum Contouring and Shaping:
The dentist will meticulously reshape and contour the remaining gum tissue to create a balanced and aesthetically pleasing gumline. This step aims to achieve an optimal balance between the gums and teeth.
Hemostasis and Closure:
To control bleeding, the dentist will apply pressure or use specialized techniques to ensure proper hemostasis. Sutures may be used to close the incisions and promote healing.
Post-Procedure Care:
After the gingivectomy, you will receive instructions on how to care for your gums during the healing process. This may include avoiding certain foods, practicing good oral hygiene, and attending follow-up appointments for monitoring.
Please note that the specific steps and techniques may vary depending on your unique situation and the expertise of the dental professional performing the procedure. It’s essential to consult with your dentist at Curedentalclinic to receive personalized guidance and care tailored to your needs.
