About Gum Treatment

Gum treatment is mainly centred on controlling the infection of your gums. A typical treatment would start off with the process of deep cleaning, which involves scaling and root planning to scrape off tartar gathered above and below the gum line and to get rid of germs or bacteria that thrive on tooth roots.

For more severe gum disease, your dentist may also recommend surgical procedures, such as flap surgery, where he or she would lift back the gums and remove tartar deposits that have gathered in deep pockets. This surgery would make cleaning the area easier for you and your dentist. In addition to flap surgery, bone and tissue grafts may be performed to regenerate any bone or gum tissue lost to periodontitis.

What are the common symptoms of gum disease?

When you have gum disease, you may notice symptoms including swelling gums, red gums, gum bleeding while brushing or flossing, bad breath, receding gums, and loose teeth. If you have any of these symptoms, talk to your dentist.

What causes gum disease?

Gum disease can occur to anyone and is usually caused by the buildup of plaque, a sticky film of bacteria on the teeth. This plaque can further turn into solid tartar. Poor oral hygiene, smoking habits, genetics, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions can contribute to gum disease.

Can gum disease be reversed?

Gum disease in its early stages (gingivitis) can be reversed with improved oral hygiene and professional dental cleanings. However, in advanced stages (periodontitis), it is usually not reversible but can be managed with ongoing treatment.

What happens if gum disease is left untreated?

Untreated gum disease often leads to severe oral health complications, including tooth loss and an increased risk of oral and overall health issues such as heart disease and diabetes.
