When patients experience gum disease and bone loss due to periodontal disease, our board-certified periodontist may recommend a regenerative procedure to rejuvenate damaged bone and tissue. Regenerative procedures are successful and dependable ways to clean damaged root surfaces and periodontal pockets and restore bone structure.
Your periodontist at El Paso Periodontics and Implant Specialists will perform a pocket reduction surgery, where the gum tissue is folded back to deeply clean the infected area. A bone graft in conjunction with membranes, can be inserted to reduce pocket depths, and repair the damage caused by periodontal disease.
