Paradontosis Treatment in Ortounión clinic Dental
About the clinic
Patients seeking treatment for paradontosis and gum disease can visit Ortounión Clinic Dental in Medellín, Colombia. A periodontics consultation typically costs around $20, while specialized deep cleaning procedures range from $30 to $40. The clinic has operated since 2009 and holds accreditation from the Secretaría Seccional de Salud y Protección Social de Antioquia.
Periodontal diagnostics
The diagnostic process starts with a personalized evaluation to determine the stage of gum disease. Dr. Juan Carlos Gómez Piedrahita, a periodontist with postgraduate training in Periodoncia, leads these assessments. The clinic uses modern imaging tools to analyze the underlying bone and gum structures. Available diagnostic tools include:
- Periodontics evaluation. A clinical valuation to assess gum pockets and inflammation.
- Tomography. This scan provides a detailed analysis of the bone structure.
- Intraoral scanning. A digital method to create precise maps of the teeth and gums.
- Panoramic X-ray. This provides a broad view of the entire jaw and dental health.
Treatment for gum disease
Ortounión Clinic Dental provides both non-surgical and surgical options to stop infection and preserve tooth support. Non-surgical therapy often involves scaling and root planing using ultrasonic equipment. This technology helps remove deep deposits of plaque and tartar from below the gum line. For cosmetic needs or advanced pocket reduction, the clinic performs specialized gum surgeries.
- Scaling and root planing (Type I). This deep cleaning costs around $30 and includes calculus removal.
- Scaling and root planing (Type II). This session costs around $40 and adds surface stain removal for tobacco or food marks.
- Gingivectomy. A surgical procedure to remove excess gum tissue or infected periodontal pockets.
- Gingivoplasty. A cosmetic procedure focused on remodeling and contouring the gum line for a balanced smile.
- Gingivitis treatment. A preventive approach focusing on plaque control and professional cleaning to reverse inflammation.
Clinic features and technology
The facility specializes in treating international patients, particularly those traveling from the United States. Beyond gum treatments, the clinic uses Digital Smile Design to plan aesthetic outcomes. For patients requiring tooth replacement after gum disease, the clinic uses Straumann and BioHorizons implant systems. These technologies help provide precise results for long-term dental health. You can request a consultation for gum treatment at Ortounión Clinic Dental through the Bookimed platform.

Ortounión clinic Dental: more details about the clinic
Ortounión Clinic Dental is a multi-specialty dental facility in Medellín, Colombia. Founded in 2009, the clinic provides complete oral health care across several specialized departments. Five specialist doctors treat both local and international patients.
Patient Experience and Achievements
The clinic has provided specialized dental services for over 15 years. It maintains a strong international focus, frequently treating patients from the United States. Many travel from New York and Florida for complex restorative work.
Ortounión emphasizes transparency through documented patient case stories. These highlight interdisciplinary treatments and complex implant reconstructions. The clinic has collected thousands of positive reviews across its primary specialties since opening.
Specialized Dental Services
The clinic operates dedicated units for restorative, aesthetic, and preventive dentistry. Each department follows clinical protocols to ensure treatment accuracy and patient safety.
Restorative Dentistry and Implants
The implantology team uses Straumann® and BioHorizons® systems for tooth replacement. Surgeons perform these outpatient procedures under local anesthesia. Planning often includes tomography to assess bone structure with precision.
- Single and multiple dental implant protocols
- Bone grafting for patients with severe bone loss
- Oral rehabilitation using fixed bridges or full prostheses
- Zirconia and lithium disilicate metal-free crowns
- Metal-porcelain crowns for traditional restoration
Oral rehabilitation specialists evaluate the bite and gums before recommending specific crown materials.
Orthodontics and Bruxism Care
The orthodontics department offers traditional and modern alignment options. Specialists provide clear aligners and sapphire or ceramic brackets. The clinic also manages bruxism through an interdisciplinary approach.
Orthodontists work with maxillofacial surgeons to evaluate muscle function and jaw joints. Treatment plans may include botulinum toxin injections to reduce muscle overactivity. After braces are removed, patients receive specific follow-up care for retention.
Endodontics and Periodontics
The endodontics team performs root canal treatments to clear infection without extraction. Many cases are completed in a single session, depending on clinical factors. Re-treatment is available when previous root canals have failed.
The periodontics unit treats periodontitis to prevent bone loss. Specialists use ultrasonic equipment for deep cleaning and root planing. Surgical options like gingivectomy address abnormal gum growth or periodontal pockets.
Diagnostic Technologies
Ortounión uses modern diagnostic tools to create personalized treatment plans. Digital techniques support both functional and aesthetic assessments.
- Digital Smile Design for aesthetic planning
- Intraoral scanning for precise dental impressions
- Tomography for detailed bone structure analysis
- Panoramic X-ray imaging
These technologies let doctors simulate results before starting smile design procedures.
Services for International Patients
The clinic coordinates multi-step treatment plans for patients traveling from abroad. This includes scheduling interdisciplinary work across multiple visits when needed. Consultations are available before arrival so patients can discuss treatment phases in advance.
Pediatric dentistry is also offered for families traveling with children. The facility sits within a commercial center, providing a comfortable environment for visitors. Doctors give detailed post-operative guidance so recovery continues safely after patients return home.
