-- A less invasive alternative to "flap surgery", the updated treatment employs the latest advancements to treat gum diseases like periodontitis. This includes the use of perioscopy - a relatively new technology.
More information is available at https://www.nobledental.co.nz/perioscopy and there is recent media coverage about this service here - https://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/news/marketers-media/advanced-periodontics-in-auckland-perioscopy-for-precise-gum-disease-treatment
North & South Magazine reported that 32,000 children and 274,000 adults had teeth extracted in 2019, naming gum disease as one of the main reasons. The magazine stated that New Zealand had an ongoing dental care crisis, noting that low-income families are the most affected. With its update, Noble Dental Specialists aims to address this concern, offering a modern treatment that prevents tooth decay and other secondary oral diseases.
In addition to causing oral health issues, gum disease has been proven to be a risk factor when it comes to developing other chronic diseases. The University of Birmingham presented a study that found that patients with a recorded history of periodontal disease were 37% more likely to develop mental health-related conditions like depression. The researchers also saw a 33% increase in autoimmune diseases and an 18% greater risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Noble Dental Specialists utilizes a tiny fiber optic bundle, also called a dental endoscope or perioscopy, to get a closeup image of the calculus under the gums. The clinic has been using perioscopy for two decades, naming it a highly successful treatment for many patients throughout the years. It requires no surgery and causes minimal discomfort.
Perioscopy is used to ensure that the dentist has successfully removed plaque and bacteria around the teeth and gums. It's a suitable treatment for early-stage gum disease, and periodontitis. The clinic can also complement the cleaning with a locally administered antibiotic, Arestin, to fight off bacteria in hard-reach areas.
"We take periodontal risk assessment seriously and have developed one of the largest arsenals of tools and procedures in New Zealand to ensure the highest standard of care," said a company spokesperson.
Additionally, Noble Dental Specialists specializes in dental implants. The dental care professionals see to the aesthetic aspect of periodontal health, providing Remuera patients with natural-looking, same-day implants.
