I have mild peridontitis and want to measure my pockets on a regular basis. Can I buy a probe and use it on myself?|||I really wouldn't suggest it personally. you have very delicate ligaments around your tooth which hold the it in place.
Probing them on a regular basis can damage these ligaments and aggravate your periodontists. Periodontists is a loss of this attachment of the ligaments, frequent pressure could prevent them from healing, especially if you push too deep.|||You can, but it will not be nearly as easy as for you hygienst or dentist. Your going to have to be careful as to not poke to far into your gums too.. while looking in a mirror.
