Regain Your Oral Health with Flap Surgery at Ocean International Dental Hospitals.

Welcome to Ocean International Dental Hospitals, where we prioritize your oral health and well-being. If you’re dealing
with gum disease or other advanced periodontal issues, Flap Surgery may be the solution you need to restore your smile
and preserve your dental health.

What is Flap Surgery?

Flap Surgery, also known as Periodontal Flap Surgery, is a specialized dental procedure aimed at treating advanced gum disease (periodontitis) and certain gum-related issues. It involves gently lifting the gum tissue to access and thoroughly clean the tooth roots and underlying bone. This process allows our skilled periodontists to remove harmful bacteria, reduce inflammation, and promote the regeneration of healthy gum tissues.

When is Flap Surgery Needed?

Flap Surgery may be recommended when gum disease has progressed beyond the early stages (gingivitis) and developed into periodontitis. Signs that you may benefit from Flap Surgery include:

Deep Gum Pockets

Gum pockets that measure 5mm or more, indicating a significant accumulation of plaque and tartar beneath the gumline.

Bone Loss

X-rays revealing bone loss around the tooth roots due to untreated gum disease.

Gum Recession

Receding gumline exposing the tooth roots, making them more susceptible to decay and sensitivity.

Persistent Inflammation

Gum tissues that remain inflamed and bleed easily despite regular dental care.
