Osseous surgery
Osseous surgery is done when there is a significant amount of bone loss due to periodontal diseases. They mainly develop as plaque gets accumulated on the teeth and hardens to form tartar. It causes red puffy gums, which leads to swelling and bleeding. However, with the help of thorough dental hygiene, one can avoid these problems and periodontal diseases. Osseous surgery can help reduce bacteria from the gums, which lessens the number of pockets and smoothes out the damaged bones.
Signs of gum diseases
Even though gum diseases come with no pain, but their signs should not be ignored. Early diagnosis and treatment can cure the problem, whereas keeping them untreated can even lead to loss of jawbones. Some of the well-known signs that might indicate that you have a gum disease would include:
- Swollen, red, and tender gums that bleed.
- Gums that tend to move away from teeth.
- Bad breath accompanied by bad taste.
- Loose teeth with visible pus that surrounds the gums and teeth.

Post-surgery expectations
Once the surgery has been completed, our dentist would cover the area with gauze to stop bleeding. We would also help you with some post-operative precautions that would help you to heal quickly. You would need to change the gauze for as long as the bleeding stays and take all the medications. If you take proper precautions and follow all the instructions, you would be back to normal within a few days.
You would have to follow some preventive measures once the surgery is complete. Visit us regularly for maintenance and check-ups. At Minty Fresh Miami, we would perform your surgery with precession and help you recover quickly and maintain that healthy oral condition.
