Let's target the infection directly to heal your gums and protect your smile.
Localized antibiotic therapy is a targeted treatment that delivers medication right into gum pockets after deep cleaning. At FLOSS Dental in Delray Beach, FL, this approach kills bacteria where they hide, reduces pocket depth and helps control periodontal disease while minimizing discomfort.
After your scaling and root planing treatment we place a small amount of antibiotic gel deep into the infected gum pockets. This medication slowly releases over several days killing bacteria and allowing your gums to heal naturally and securely.
This treatment is best for patients with mild to moderate gum disease or stubborn pockets that do not improve with cleaning alone. If you've been told you have deep gum pockets localized antibiotic therapy might be a smart next step. Talk to a pro at FLOSS Dental - Delray to see if it's right for you.
Localized antibiotic therapy is most effective as part of a comprehensive gum care plan. Learn about scaling and root planing for deep cleaning, periodontal maintenance for ongoing gum health, and routine dental cleanings for prevention. We also recommend regular oral cancer screenings as part of your overall oral health care.
