Studio Paro periodontal treatment prices
How much does periodontal treatment cost and how does it work? The answer depends on the treatment planned and the number of sessions required. The treatment, which involves removing subgingival calculus and cleaning out periodontal pockets, is called lithotripsy. A session of lithotripsy costs an average of €300 at our dental practice in Lyon 3rd.
Following a complete dental check-up to determine the extent of bone loss, the practitioner announces the recommended number of sessions, generally between 2 and 15.
Because this type of procedure can be costly, a personalized payment schedule can be set up for the part of the treatment that is not covered by social security or mutual insurance. Lithotripsy, in particular, is not reimbursed by social security.
Periodontal treatment follow-up and fees
The treatment and fees for periodontitis are listed on the estimate drawn up by your Studio Paro dentist. A number of steps are necessary for proper treatment:
- the oral check-up, and more specifically the periodontal check-up, which costs €285, with €111 reimbursed by the CPAM. During the check-up, the dentist takes a series of 18 X-ray images of the teeth and gums. It lasts around 1 h 30;
- lithotripsy sessions, each of which costs €300 and may be partially reimbursed by your mutual insurance company, depending on the dental package you subscribe to. The practitioner’s diagnosis leads to simple lithotripsy or surgical lithotripsy (rare);
- follow-up treatment, essential to prevent recurrence, which costs €255, with a €43.38 health insurance refund. 2 sessions a year are recommended (depending on the condition of the gums), during which the gums are disinfected, again using lithotripsy and, if necessary, scaling.
