Periodontal pocket revision

We monitor progress after treatment and keep periodontitis from returning.

Periodontal pocket revision is a follow-up examination and treatment of the pocket after therapy. The doctor re-probes, compares with baseline readings and assesses progress: a smaller pocket means treatment is working; critical depth may call for surgery. During the revision we perform ultrasonic cleaning, antiseptic irrigation and, when indicated, local medication. Regular revisions are an essential part of maintenance therapy: they catch a relapse early.

When to come

  • After a course of periodontitis treatment.
  • During maintenance therapy.
  • Bleeding has returned.
  • On the doctor's monitoring schedule.
  • Deepening pockets on examination.

FAQ

How is it different from scaling?
Scaling is the main deep cleaning; revision is the follow-up control and maintenance afterwards.
How often is it needed?
Usually every 3–6 months depending on your condition. The doctor sets the schedule.
Is it painful?
Usually not; with sensitive gums, light anaesthesia is possible.
What if the pocket hasn't shrunk?
The doctor will assess the cause and, if needed, suggest additional or surgical treatment.
Is maintenance needed forever?
Periodontitis is chronic, so maintenance is ongoing, but the visits are short.
