Four States of Periodontal Disease Treatment - Robert L. Mandell - Other

The first stage of periodontal therapy begins with a thorough exam and consultation. Stage two is called initial periodontal therapy. During this time, you’ll learn various techniques for cleaning gum pockets and undergo a deep cleaning below the gum line. Patients who successfully finish stage two and have good healing and small pockets do not need further therapy. The recall and maintenance program are essential. A daily home regimen of brushing and flossing or using other cleaning devices is essential for continued health. http://www.drrobertmandell.com/our-services/traditional-periodontics
