Pocket Reduction Surgery Victoria BC

Pocket reduction surgery is a gum surgery performed in order to reduce the probeable depth of the gingival sulcus (known as a periodontal pocket, in disease) to allow for less plaque accumulation and greater access for hygiene. Reducing the depths of the periodontal pockets allows for an environment that is less hospitable to virulent periodontal pathogens.
