Understanding Osseous Surgery

Osseous surgery, also called pocket reduction surgery, addresses advanced gum disease that has damaged the bone supporting your teeth. During this procedure, Dr. Morcos carefully access the tooth roots to remove bacteria and tartar buildup hiding in deep pockets. They then smooth irregular bone surfaces where bacteria love to collect and reposition your gum tissue for easier cleaning at home.

Benefits of Osseous Surgery

1.

Halts Disease Progression

Eliminates infection at its source before more bone loss occurs.

2.

Reduced Pocket Depth

Creates shallower gum pockets that you can clean effectively with regular brushing and flossing.

3.

Tooth Preservation

Preserves teeth that might otherwise require extraction due to advanced periodontal damage.

4.

Improved Overall Health

Removes harmful bacteria linked to heart disease, diabetes complications, and other systemic conditions.

Untreated gum disease remains the leading cause of tooth loss in adults.

Dr. Morcos uses CBCT imaging and detailed charting to map your bone levels and pocket depths accurately.

Who Needs Osseous Surgery?

This procedure helps patients whose gum disease has progressed beyond what non-surgical treatments can manage. You may be a candidate if you have:

  • Deep Periodontal Pockets: Measurements of 5mm or greater that trap bacteria below the gumline.
  • Bone Irregularities: Uneven bone surfaces create hiding spots for harmful bacteria.
  • Persistent Infection: Gum disease that hasn’t responded to scaling and root planing alone.
  • Loose Teeth: Mobility caused by bone loss around tooth roots.
