Periodontal Treatment • Liverpool and Syracuse, NY

Treatment Methods

Dr. Albert and his staff are highly skilled, offering a wide variety of both surgical and non-surgical treatment options.  We work with your general dentist to provide our patients with the most appropriate care, in the most conservative fashion. 

Many early periodontal case types are best treated with non-surgical periodontal therapy.  That’s one of the best reasons to initiate control of periodontal infections as early as possible. 

Even severely advanced periodontal infections can benefit by initiating the control of these bacterial infections with non-surgical methods.  By reducing the bacterial cause of a periodontal infection, we will reduce your chances of future tooth loss.  Other associated health care risks will also improve with infection control.

  • Developing a Healthy Bite - Like a lock and key, the upper teeth are intended to fit into and work harmoniously with the lower teeth.
  • Pocket Elimination - The infections that enter the jawbones beneath the gum line consist of bacteria, various forms of fungus and assorted viruses.
