When gum disease has progressed a long way, cleaning from the surface is sometimes not enough. For patients from Isanpur with deep pockets and significant bone loss, flap surgery gives the specialist direct access to the roots so they can be cleaned thoroughly.
The name sounds more alarming than the procedure. The gum is gently lifted back like a flap, the area underneath is cleaned, and the gum is then placed back and secured. Local anaesthesia keeps the area numb throughout.
After numbing, a small incision lets the gum be folded back. Tartar and infected tissue are removed and the root surfaces are cleaned and smoothed. If there is a bone defect, bone grafting material may be placed to support healing. The gum is then repositioned to reduce the pocket and held with fine stitches. The whole process is planned in advance using your pocket measurements and X-rays.
Only the teeth that need it are included. If just one area has deep pockets, the surgery may be limited to that section of the mouth, while other areas continue to be managed with cleaning. The specialist explains exactly which teeth are involved before the day of surgery.
Some swelling and tenderness are normal for a few days. You will receive clear instructions on cleaning the area, eating soft foods and taking any prescribed medicine. Stitches, if placed, are checked or removed at a review visit. Afterwards, regular maintenance cleanings are essential to keep the pockets shallow. For many infected pockets, laser treatment is an option with a quicker recovery, and our specialists will explain whether that could suit you. See our gum surgery page for more.
