For a Healthy Smile: Gum Treatment

A smile is a reflection of having healthy gums. However, gum problems can negatively affect your teeth and overall oral health. That’s why gum treatment is an important step to regain and maintain the health of your gums.

What is Gum Diseases?

Gum diseases occur as a result of infections or irritations that affect the gums. Common gum problems such as gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) and periodontitis (gum disease) can lead to serious consequences such as gum recession, bleeding gums and tooth loss.
Gum Treatment Methods

1. 1. Professional Cleaning: Professional teeth cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist helps remove dental plaque and tartar and supports gum health.
   2. Tooth stone cleaning:Dental tartar is cleaned with special tools to remove mineralized plaque accumulated on tooth surfaces. This helps prevent gingivitis and other gum problems.
   3. Root Planing: In the case of periodontitis, root planing may be necessary to prevent gum recession and restore gum health.
   4. Surgical Interventions: In advanced gum diseases, surgical treatments may be required. These include procedures such as gingivectomy (gum cutting), gingivoplasty (gum shaping), and periodontal pocket cleaning.
