Dr. John Cutting top periodontal treatments in Edgewater, MD, including:
Arestin to Treat Periodontitis
Arestin is an antibiotic treatment that is directly applied to the infected gum pockets. This targeted approach helps to reduce the bacteria that cause periodontitis, promoting healing and preventing the progression of gum disease. It's a simple and effective way to address infection at its source.
Gingivectomies
A gingivectomy is a surgical procedure to remove excess gum tissue. This may be necessary when gum disease has caused the gums to grow too large or when there is a deep gum pocket that is difficult to clean. By removing the excess tissue, we can help restore the health of your gums while making it easier to maintain proper oral hygiene.
