FDS provides support to the wider dental community in four broad areas:
- Treatment of the various Periodontal Diseases and Conditions of the Periodontium.
- Oral Medicine with associated diagnosis and treatment services.
- Minor Oral Surgery to address soft and hard tissue issues.
- Dental Implant placement procedures and the related long-term care of the same.
Areas 1 & 2, in particular, are often deeply connected with systemic health issues. Pregnancy, diabetes, G.I.T. absorption issues, autoimmune diseases, blood dyscrasias, illnesses or treatment for illnesses (such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy) can all dramatically influence a person’s oral health and comfort.
Areas 3 & 4 also rely on a healthy well nourished patient to achieve an optimal clinical outcome.
