Surgical Procedures
Periodontal surgical procedures are the procedures that address gum disease. Pocket reduction and grafting are two of the most common options. If you suffer from gingivitis or periodontitis, and non-surgical methods don't help to resolve it, periodontal surgery could rectify the problem.
Osseous surgery, also referred to as pocket depth reduction, is usually recommended when non-surgical treatments such as scaling and root planning have failed to recondition the impacted tissue around your teeth. Read more
Periodontal disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. An extraction can help stop the infection from spreading to surrounding teeth. When the infection spreads to the center of a tooth, we may first recommend a root canal to help save the tooth. A compromised immune system can increase your risk of infection. Sometimes, this increased risk may be reason enough to pull a tooth. Read more
A biopsy is a minor procedure in which Dr. Latypova removes a small sample of tissue for laboratory testing under a microscope. This tissue is typically harvested from an abnormal-looking area. The most common areas for a dental biopsy include the gums, the inner cheeks, and the tongue. Read more
Soft tissue grafting is often a vital part of combating gum recession. You may experience gum recession due to periodontal disease, aging, trauma, crowded teeth, and over-brushing.

Most sensitivity issues should also subside following your graft. Read more

The upper premolar and molar teeth’s roots can sometimes occupy the sinus cavity or be positioned very close to it.
