Curettage

What is Curettage?

Curettage is a deep gum cleaning procedure performed in order to clean the inflamed tissues and dental calculi that accumulate in the gum pockets in the advanced stages of gum disease. It aims to restore gum health.

Why is Curettage Performed?

Superficial dental stone cleaning is not enough in some cases. Bacteria that remain in the gum pockets cause the disease to progress. The curettage process aims to stop gum and bone loss by eliminating these deep infections.

When Is Curettage Required?

If you have advanced gum disease

If deepening has been detected in the gum pockets

If the gum bleeding and swelling continue

If there is a risk of shaking in the teeth

Curettage Process

1. Inspection and Pocket Measurement

The treatment plan is created by measuring the depth of the gum pockets.

2. Application of Local Anesthesia

The area is numbed to provide comfort during the procedure.

3. Deep Cleaning Process

Inflamed tissues under the gum and dental calculus are removed.

4. Recovery and Follow-Up

The healing process of the gums is monitored, and a follow-up appointment is scheduled.
