Periodontal disease treatment will depend on the severity. The cost for treating periodontal disease is
expensive and can cost thousands of dollars in severe cases.
A dentist or periodontist will be able to diagnose and prescribe the best treatment, which may include the
following:
1. A deep cleaning that includes removing plaque and tartar
that is beneath the gumline.
2. The tooth root may need to be smoothed so that the gum tissue can heal.
3. Sometimes antibiotics or mouth rinses may help to control bacteria that cause
periodontitis. Helpful products that have been recommended by dentists and
periodontists include Biotene Dry Mouth Mouthwash and Closys Complete Oral Health System (both are
alcohol-free).
4. When the patient is unable to keep deep pockets clean between teeth and gums, the dentist may help to
control infection with "antibiotic fibers."
5. In extreme cases, gum surgery may be required to clean the tooth root(s) and bone surgery to rebuild
or reshape the bone.
IN ANY STAGE OF SUSPECTED PERIODONTAL DISEASE, BE SURE TO SEE A REPUTABLE DENTIST OR PERIODONTIST!
As an alternative, you might also consider an innovative periodontal disease treatment known as Regerative Periodontal Endoscopy (RPE) that
lowers the cost of treatment. Watch the video below to learn more about this breakthrough non-invasive
procedure.
This RPE treatment may not yet be available in your area, but your periodontist should be able
to give you more information on this new way to treat periodontal disease.
How do you pay for expensive periodontal treatment?
Dental insurance usually permits payment on surgical restoration procedures because that is medically necessary,
but typically, no allowance is made for that which is considered cosmetic. Therefore, many people prefer using a
discount dental plan like AmeriPlan® that will reduce the cost of cosmetic procedures.
People choose a dental discount service for several reasons, beyond what they save on periodontal disease
treatment:
Cosmetic dentistry such as bleaching, bonding and implants are
included.
Orthodontics (dental braces) included for both children and adults.
All ongoing dental / medical problems are accepted (except orthodontic treatment
already in progress)
No waiting period. You can go to the dentist
immediately.
All Specialists included - Oral Surgeons, Orthodontists, Endodontists, Periodontists
and Prosthodontists.
Members may change dentists at any time without having to notify anyone.
No annual limitations
No paperwork
Instant savings
Dental insurance usually only allows approximately $1,000 per year coverage so periodontal disease
treatment will usually go way beyond this annual limit. Because of this reality, most people have come to
realize that they don't have much protection from the high cost of dental care with dental insurance alone.
People all across America are convinced that AmeriPlan Dental® is the best value dental service
available and it only costs $19.95 a month for the whole household - everyone's included. Or,
just $14.95 a month for an individual.
