Ongoing maintenance visits every 3 to 4 months are extra. Confirm whether re-evaluation is included.

How to pay less without cutting corners

  • Stop smoking and shisha, which worsen periodontitis and reduce treatment success.
  • Keep to the maintenance schedule to avoid repeating active treatment.
