Periodontal Maintenance

Keep Your Gums Healthy for Life

Periodontal disease can be controlled but not cured. Regular maintenance visits every 3–4 months are essential to prevent recurrence and protect your investment in treatment.

Why Maintenance Visits Matter

Research shows that gum disease bacteria repopulate treated pockets within 3 months. Regular maintenance removes this buildup before it causes damage — far more effective than waiting for problems to return.

  • Removes bacteria from deep pockets
  • Monitors bone levels with periodic x-rays
  • Early detection of any new disease activity
  • Polishes teeth to remove surface stain
  • Reviews and improves your home care routine
