Apically repositioned flap in Unident Clinic
About the clinic
An apically repositioned flap at Unident Clinic in Tirana, Albania, helps treat advanced gum disease by cleaning deep beneath the gum line. This surgical method allows the dental team to remove tartar and bacteria that standard cleanings cannot reach. The clinic follows strict hygiene protocols and uses internationally certified materials for all oral surgeries.
Treatment for Advanced Gum Disease
This procedure is a type of periodontal flap surgery used to manage periodontitis. The surgeon lifts a small section of the gum to reach the tooth roots and the surrounding bone. This step makes it possible to remove all infections and tartar from the hidden areas of the tooth. If needed, the doctor reshapes the bone to create a healthier foundation for the gums. Afterward, the tissue is repositioned and sutured to help it grow back properly.
Comfort and Recovery
The clinic uses local anesthesia to keep the surgery painless for every patient. For those who feel anxious about dental work, conscious sedation is also available. Patients typically experience a rapid recovery and can return to their routines quickly. This surgery helps reduce gum bleeding and inflammation while preventing future bone loss. By addressing the infection early, patients can keep their natural teeth for a much longer time.
