Periodontal Maintenance in Daytona Beach, FL

After you have undergone a deep cleaning or periodontal surgery due to gum infection you will need to keep regular periodontal maintenance visits to maintain your gums and prevent the recurrence of gum disease. Daytona Elite Dental offers periodontal maintenance in Daytona Beach, FL.

During a periodontal maintenance visit, your pockets depths are measured and your periodontal status reassessed. While standard prophylaxis cleans the teeth above the gum line, perio maintenance goes a little deeper, slightly below the gumline, since you are more prone to plaque and tartar build up based on your past history of gum disease. It should be done every three to four months depending on the precise condition of your gums
