Team for your periodontal assessment in Cali
Dr. Sthefania Gutierrez
Her professional profile lists qualifications as a dentist specializing in Periodontics and Osseointegration, with care for periodontal disease and oral implantology.
The Capri and Camino Real profiles list her on their Cali team. Ask about availability for your preferred date and clinic.
Confirm who handles each stage
Assessment, surgery and follow-up may require specific arrangements. Ask for the responsible professional’s name, clinic and contact details before starting.
If your dentist refers you for gum treatment before restorative care, bring the referral and available studies to coordinate treatment.
Gum changes worth assessing
Bleeding when brushing
Inflammation and bleeding may occur with gingivitis or other periodontal problems. Examination identifies the cause and guides the care you need.
Gums that have receded
An exposed root, sensitivity or changes in gum contours require assessment of recession and its causes. Treatment is adapted to the tissue and defect in each area.
Loose teeth or discomfort when chewing
Periodontal support and your bite are examined to assess tooth prognosis and retention options. Mobility alone does not establish the diagnosis.
Bad breath that persists
If it continues despite oral hygiene, its cause should be investigated. It may relate to gum health, other dental problems or different causes.
Periodontal disease can progress without pain. Seek prompt care for pus, significant swelling or severe pain. Difficulty breathing or swallowing requires emergency care.
Gingivitis and periodontitis: how treatment differs
The aim is to care for your gums and tooth support. Treatment selection considers periodontal measurements, bleeding, recession, mobility and X-rays when indicated.
| Condition | How care is planned |
|---|---|
| Gingivitis | Care aims to control plaque and inflammation through oral hygiene and professional attention. Gingivitis itself does not involve the bone loss characteristic of periodontitis. |
| Periodontitis | Loss of attachment and supporting bone is assessed. Scaling and root instrumentation, reassessment and further treatment in specific areas may be required. |
| Inflammation around implants | The tissues and implant support are examined to distinguish mucositis from peri-implantitis and determine management. |
| Periodontal maintenance | Reviews are scheduled according to risk and clinical response, assessing oral hygiene and treated areas. |
Routine cleaning and periodontitis treatment have different scopes. If you already have a diagnosis, bring it to your appointment to review completed and outstanding care.
Gum grafts and bone grafts in Cali
When discussing grafts, it is important to clarify which tissue needs treatment and why. Gum grafting and bone regeneration address different problems; indications require clinical examination.
Gum grafting for recession
This is considered for receding gums or specific gum tissue needs. In selected cases it may increase tissue or cover an exposed root. Possible coverage depends on the defect and is explained before the procedure.
Ask which area would be treated, where tissue would be obtained, what care you would need and how reviews would be arranged in Cali.
Bone regeneration and bone grafts
A defect around a tooth is distinguished from reconstruction to prepare for an implant. The plan depends on support and available anatomy; not all defects allow lost tissues to be recovered.
When requesting an appointment, mention any graft referral and existing studies. The team confirms the appropriate professional and clinic for assessment.
Arrange your consultation and follow-up in Cali
Choose a practical location
Consider Capri, Camino Real and Holguines in relation to your home or workplace. Factor in travel for reviews as well as the first appointment.
Prepare your medical history
Report medications, diabetes, tobacco use and previous dental care. Bring existing X-rays or reports; the professional will indicate whether additional studies are needed.
Review the staged plan
Ask about the diagnosis, affected teeth and areas, alternatives and reassessment. Surgery is decided according to the case and response to initial treatment.
Agree on maintenance
Confirm where reviews will take place and who will answer questions. Periodontitis requires long-term follow-up and daily care to maintain stability.
Cost of periodontal treatment in Cali
Cost depends on the diagnosis and scope of the plan. Assessment, treatment of several areas and graft surgery are different items. Request a detailed proposal to compare what is included.
| Stage | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Assessment and studies | Consultation, periodontal records, X-rays and other indicated studies; fees and inclusions. |
| Initial treatment | Areas to treat, planned appointments and reassessment of the response. |
| Surgery or grafting | Indication, alternatives, materials, fees and postoperative reviews, where appropriate. |
| Follow-up | Individual maintenance frequency, cost and assigned Cali clinic. |
On mobile, swipe tables sideways. Costs and availability are confirmed with the team.
If you are coming from another city or abroad
Provide your Cali travel dates before booking appointments. Visit numbers depend on diagnosis, treatment and reassessment; the first consultation allows an individual schedule to be planned.
Ask which reviews must be in person, whether another trip may be needed and how to continue maintenance when you return. If a dentist also treats you where you live, request instructions for coordinating follow-up.

Her profile lists Periodontics and Osseointegration qualifications, and the Capri and Camino Real profiles include her on their team. Ask about availability for your date and preferred clinic.
Can I ask about gum grafts?
Yes, you can request assessment for receding gums and gum grafting. Diagnosis determines whether the procedure is indicated and the possible outcome in the affected area.
Does a cleaning eliminate periodontitis?
Periodontitis needs a plan matched to support loss and affected areas. Root instrumentation, reassessment and maintenance may be part of that plan; routine cleaning does not replace all necessary care.
Do bleeding gums mean I need surgery?
Bleeding alone does not indicate an operation. Examination identifies the cause and appropriate treatment; surgery is considered when there is a specific need.
Can my reviews take place at the same clinic?
Ask when planning treatment. Confirm which reviews can take place at your preferred clinic and which require the treating professional or clinic.
