If you have advanced gum disease, pocket reduction surgery is one of the best ways to halt its progression and save your remaining teeth. Without proper intervention, your condition will only get worse, and you may lose most or all of your remaining teeth.
Why should I choose pocket reduction surgery?
Pocket reduction surgery, also known as osseous surgery, aims to remove bacteria that has built up between the gums and roots of a patient’s tooth. If you’re suffering from advanced periodontal (gum) disease and are at risk of losing your teeth, pocket reduction surgery can help save your smile and restore your oral health.
What Counts as a Dental Emergency in Doral?
Not every dental concern requires same-day attention — but some absolutely do. A dental emergency is any situation involving acute pain, visible damage to teeth or gums, or an immediate threat to your oral health. Acting quickly can mean the difference between saving or losing a tooth.
Common dental emergencies we treat at our Doral office include:
- Severe toothache or persistent throbbing pain
- Chipped, cracked, or broken teeth
- Knocked-out (avulsed) tooth
- Lost filling or dental crown
- Dental abscess or painful oral infection
- Gum injuries with bleeding or swelling
- Facial swelling related to a tooth or jaw
- Dental injuries from sports, accidents, or falls
