Dr. Bassel Gebrael provides comprehensive periodontic care, offering both preventive and corrective treatments for patients with gum-related concerns. With extensive training and experience in treating periodontal disease and performing advanced surgical procedures, Dr. Gebrael ensures that every patient receives a tailored approach to restore and maintain healthy gums. From deep cleanings and gum grafting to full periodontal surgery and dental implant placement, his expertise covers a wide range of services designed to support long-term oral health and a confident smile.
Periodontics focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease as well as the supporting structures of the teeth. Early-stage treatment may involve scaling, root planing, or other conservative therapies to stop the progression of periodontal disease. For more advanced cases, procedures such as osseous surgery, guided tissue regeneration, and crown lengthening may be recommended. These treatments not only improve oral function but also protect against future damage to the gums and bone.
In addition to addressing gum health, periodontics plays a vital role in enhancing aesthetics and preparing for restorative or orthodontic treatments. Gum contouring and crown lengthening can reshape the gumline for a more balanced smile, while grafting procedures correct gum recession and strengthen thin tissue. For patients missing teeth, Dr. Gebrael offers dental implants supported by bone grafting, ridge expansion, or sinus lifts when necessary. This comprehensive approach ensures that patients receive both functional and cosmetic benefits from their periodontal care.

Periodontal disease often starts silently. Common signs include red, swollen, or tender gums, bleeding while brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, and receding gums that make your teeth look longer. If left untreated, these symptoms can lead to bone loss and tooth mobility.
This is a surgical procedure used to repair damage caused by advanced gum disease. Dr. Gebrael uses a small piece of biocompatible fabric (a membrane) between the gum tissue and the bone. This membrane acts as a barrier, allowing the slower-growing bone and ligament tissues to regrow without being crowded out by faster-growing gum tissue.
Gum contouring is typically a cosmetic procedure used to reshape an uneven gum line for a more balanced smile. Crown lengthening is often a functional necessity; it involves removing a small amount of gum tissue (and sometimes bone) to expose more of the natural tooth structure, usually to allow for the proper placement of a dental crown or bridge.

A sinus lift is a bone grafting procedure required when there isn't enough bone height in the upper jaw to support an implant, or if the sinuses are too close to the jaw. By adding bone material to the area under the sinus, we create a solid foundation for the titanium implant post to be securely placed.
The CDCP provides coverage for several essential periodontal services, including deep scaling, root planing, and certain diagnostic procedures. For more advanced surgeries like gum grafting or sinus lifts, pre-authorization is usually required. Our Toronto team can help you determine your eligibility and handle the paperwork for your specialized care.
