Periodontal Treatment
What is Periodontal Therapy?
Dental health is an important part of our general health and the condition of the gums is very important for maintaining this health. Periodontal treatment refers to an approach that includes a series of procedures used to diagnose, treat and prevent gum diseases. In our clinic in Antalya, we offer periodontal treatment services with our specialist dentists and experienced team in the field of periodontology.
Periodontal Diseases and Symptoms
Periodontal diseases are caused by inflammation of the gums and damage to other oral tissues. Early signs of these diseases include bleeding gums, receding gums, gaps between the teeth and swelling or tenderness around the gums. If you experience these symptoms or notice any changes in your gums, it is important to consult a dentist.
Periodontal Treatment Options
At our clinic in Antalya, we offer various options for the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases. These options include treatments such as professional teeth cleaning, root planing procedures, pocket cleaning procedures, gum surgery and implant care. We aim to maintain the health of the gums and oral hygiene at the highest level by creating a treatment plan tailored specifically for each patient.
Periodontal Aftercare
To maintain the success of the treatment, it is important to attend the dentist regularly after periodontal treatment. It is also important to maintain good oral hygiene habits and keep the teeth and gums clean by brushing, flossing and using mouthwash. In this way, you can help prevent the recurrence of periodontal disease and maintain the health of the gums.

Treatment Process: Step by Step

- Non-Surgical Phase — Deep scaling and root planing remove tartar and bacteria from below the gumline, allowing tissue healing.
- Re-Evaluation — After 4-6 weeks, pocket depths are reassessed to determine if surgical intervention is necessary.
- Surgical Treatment — If needed, minimally invasive flap surgery or laser therapy addresses persistent deep pockets.
- Maintenance Programme — Scheduled professional cleanings every 3-4 months maintain results and prevent disease recurrence.
