After gum treatment
Periodontics for The Maples Residents
Had deep cleaning years ago and drifted away from follow-up? Residents of The Maples can have their gums reassessed at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.

Why follow-up keeps coming up
Periodontitis needs looking after long term.
Treatment can calm inflammation, but periodontitis is generally managed rather than considered permanently cured. Plaque keeps returning, pockets can deepen again, and regular maintenance is how new buildup gets disrupted and changes get caught early.
Perhaps life got busy, or perhaps you were never sure how often you should come in. Whichever it is, nobody in The Maples needs to feel awkward about it. A fresh set of measurements shows where things stand now, and a recall interval can be set from there.

A little clarity before your visit
Your questions, answered.
Helpful details about periodontics in The Maples.
Ask our teamI stopped going for maintenance. Is it too late?
Asking about your gums now is still worthwhile. An assessment shows current pocket depths and inflammation, which then guide what comes next.
How often will I need to come in?
There is no universal schedule. Previous disease, current depths, smoking, home care, health and how you responded to treatment together inform the interval.
How is maintenance different from the cleaning I used to get?
Maintenance after periodontitis also tracks pocket depths and looks for change, on a timetable set around your risk.
Could my old pockets have come back?
They might have. Where plaque has accumulated or risk factors remain, inflammation and deeper readings can recur, and measuring is how that is confirmed.
My gums look fine. Do I still need this?
Looks can mislead, since periodontitis may progress with little discomfort. Monitoring is how changes are picked up early.
Will I need more treatment?
Not necessarily. Stable areas can stay on maintenance, though lingering pockets may call for additional care after your findings are reviewed.
What is the first move if I live in The Maples and want to restart?
