Getting Periodontal Treatment
What To Expect During Periodontal Treatment In New Jersey
Chances are, at some point in your life, you will need periodontal treatment. Studies indicate that more than 75 percent of the population has suffered from some kind of periodontal disease and that almost half of all 20-year-olds have dealt with at least one periodontal issue.
So if periodontal treatment is going to be a regular part of your life, you should be confident in your dentist and have a good sense of periodontal treatment expectations before you undergo a procedure. At Howell Dental Associates, Dr. Goldberg and the staff not only provide expert periodontal treatment but also help patients by educating them on periodontal treatment expectations and how to minimize such issues in the future.
Patients undergoing treatment for periodontal issues can expect multiple visits to Howell Dental Associates, during which we will clean, scale and curettage the affected area and possible apply topical antibiotics. At our office we use treatment with Arrestin. Arrestin is a antibiotic which can be injected in between the teeth and gums to kill disease causing bacteria. Antibiotics may be prescribed afterward and follow-up appointments will be scheduled to make sure the recovery is going as expected.
The long-term success of periodontal treatment depends largely on the patient. Those who take care of their gums, follow good dental habits and see a dentist for regular checkups after being diagnosed and treated for periodontal disease enjoy a success rate of up to 85 percent.
Dr. Goldberg and his staff have decades of experience in periodontal treatment and helping patients in New Jersey address problems that arise from periodontal disease. We are eager to meet with new and old patients alike and to provide them accurate and helpful periodontal treatment expectations. Call us today at (732) 363-5115 to schedule an appointment with our periodontal treatments NJ specialists!
