Periodontitis Treatment in clinic Odontológica Prime Dente
About the clinic
Periodontitis treatment at Clínica Odontológica Prime Dente in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, focuses on stopping gum disease and restoring oral health. The clinic holds a Trustindex verified badge with a score of 4.5+ and uses an iTero digital scanner for precise imaging. Dr. Roberta de Virgílio Rougemont Teixeira, a specialist in periodontia and clinical evaluator, leads the dental team in managing all stages of gum inflammation.
Diagnostics and evaluation
The clinic uses an in-clinic panoramic X-ray to provide an immediate diagnostic assessment during a single visit. This allows the doctor to see the bone levels and the extent of the infection quickly. Patients undergo an initial periodontal evaluation that includes a clinical exam and a detailed review of their dental history. This step helps the specialist determine if the disease is mild gingivitis or advanced periodontitis.
Non-surgical treatment options
Non-surgical methods are the first line of defense against gum disease. These procedures aim to remove the source of infection without invasive surgery. The clinic offers several options:
- Prophylaxis and deep cleaning. This preventive service involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line.
- Scaling and root planing. This treatment focuses on deep cleaning the root surfaces. It removes bacteria from periodontal pockets to help gums reattach to the teeth.
- Periodontal maintenance program. This includes regular check-ups over three months. It helps monitor inflammation and prevents the recurrence of biofilm.
Surgical and regenerative procedures
When gum disease reaches an advanced stage, surgical intervention may be necessary to save the teeth. The medical team at Clínica Odontológica Prime Dente performs specialized procedures to repair damage to the tissues and bone.
- Periodontal surgery. The surgeon uses regenerative techniques to treat deep pockets and restore lost bone and gum support.
- Gum recession treatment. This aesthetic and functional procedure covers exposed roots. It helps reduce tooth sensitivity and improves the look of the smile.
The clinic operates two units in Botafogo and Méier for easy access across the city. You can request a consultation for gum treatment at Clínica Odontológica Prime Dente through the Bookimed platform.

- Prótese Protocolo – a fixed prosthesis installed over multiple dental implants
- Implant-supported metal-ceramic crowns

Every prosthetic treatment starts with an initial evaluation. Dentists perform a clinical exam to confirm the plan is viable and safe. Long-term maintenance helps the implants last.
Periodontics and Gum Health
The periodontics department treats diseases affecting the tissues that support teeth. Specialists manage conditions from mild inflammation to deep periodontal pockets. Common treatments include:
- Plaque and tartar removal above and below the gum line
