Periodontitis Treatment in Odontólogos La 73
About the clinic
Periodontitis care is available at Odontólogos La 73 in Medellín, Colombia. The clinic offers a free periodontal assessment, and lead dentist Dr. Gustavo Roldán has over 50 years of experience.
Dr. Roldán specializes in periodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. The clinic is endorsed by Seccional de Salud, Colombia’s local health authority.
Periodontal diagnosis
The free assessment checks gum and bone health and helps distinguish gingivitis from periodontitis. It includes pocket probing and dental radiography.
- Gum examination. The dentist checks pocket depth, bleeding, gum recession, and tooth mobility.
- Dental radiography. Images help assess the teeth and supporting bone.
Periodontitis treatment options
- Scaling and root planing. This non-surgical treatment removes calculus below the gumline and smooths tooth roots. It may be used for pockets, bleeding, or tooth mobility.
- Professional dental hygiene. This preventive care supports gum health for gingivitis and after periodontal treatment.
- Periodontal maintenance. Control visits follow a schedule set for each case. They help monitor gum health after treatment.
- Nitrous oxide sedation. Nitrous oxide and oxygen help anxious patients or those with a gag reflex complete treatment. Patients remain awake and responsive.
- Surgery and rehabilitation for teeth that cannot be saved. If a mobile tooth no longer has enough support, the clinic can plan extraction and replacement with an implant or prosthesis.
The number of treatment appointments and maintenance visits depends on the case. Digital scanning supports treatment planning, while the on-site CAD/CAM laboratory can support follow-on implants or crowns.
Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss periodontal assessment and care options.

Aesthetic Dentistry and Smile Design
Smile makeover plans correct the color, shape, and size of teeth. The clinic offers ceramic and resin veneers, including minimal-prep and no-prep options. For eligible cases, crowns or veneers can be fabricated and fitted within 48 hours.

Patients can choose between traditional braces and clear aligners. Orthodontic plans are customized based on bite and clinical complexity. Periodontal care treats gingivitis and periodontitis through scaling and root planing.
Patient Comfort and Pediatrics
The clinic offers conscious sedation with nitrous oxide (laughing gas). This helps patients with dental anxiety or a strong gag reflex stay calm while awake. Pediatric dentistry is also available for children, starting from their first months of life.
Technology and Laboratory Infrastructure
The clinic runs an on-site dental laboratory to streamline prosthesis fabrication. This setup lets the treating dentist check crown or veneer fit and color in real-time. Direct communication with lab technicians allows immediate adjustments without external workshops.
The facility uses several modern technologies for diagnosis and treatment:
- CAD/CAM systems: Computer-aided design and manufacturing for precise restorations.
- Digital scanning: Replaces traditional molds for more accurate dental impressions.
- Laser whitening: In-office systems for professional teeth bleaching.
Digital scans and CAD/CAM help the team plan complex surgeries and aesthetic designs with high precision.
