A Proactive Approach to Long-Term Oral Health
At Menominee Advanced Periodontics & Implant Center, we believe that education is the foundation of lasting oral health. Empowering patients with knowledge about periodontal disease—its causes, prevention, and treatment—encourages informed decision-making and fosters healthier habits. This proactive approach not only improves oral health but also contributes to overall well-being.
Dr. Elnagdy carefully evaluates each patient’s condition to determine the most appropriate therapy. Factors considered include:
- Severity of gum disease
- Extent of tissue and bone damage
- Overall oral health status
- Medical history and systemic health
- Ability to maintain effective oral hygiene
Types of Periodontal Treatments:
Non-Surgical Therapy:
Scaling and Root Planing—a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
Surgical Therapy:
Surgical therapy encompasses a range of procedures designed to address complex oral health conditions that may not respond adequately to non-surgical treatments. These interventions can provide immediate relief from symptoms, restore function, and significantly improve a patient’s quality of life.
Beyond symptom management, surgical therapy targets underlying issues such as advanced periodontal disease, bone loss, or structural abnormalities. By addressing these root causes, it supports long-term oral health and helps prevent future complications.
Maintenance Therapy:
Ongoing care through regular check-ups and professional cleanings is essential to monitor progress, prevent recurrence, and maintain long-term results.
Our goal is to provide personalized, evidence-based care that supports each patient’s journey toward optimal oral health. Through education, advanced diagnostics, and tailored treatment plans, we strive to deliver outcomes that are both effective and enduring.
