What Are Gum Diseases and When Do You Need Treatment?

Gum diseases, also known as periodontal diseases, affect the tissues surrounding your teeth. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and serious health problems. There are two main types of gum diseases:

• Gingivitis: The earliest stage of gum disease, characterized by inflamed, red, and bleeding gums.
• Periodontitis: A more severe stage where the infection spreads deeper into the gums, causing gum recession, pockets between teeth, and even bone loss.

You may require gum treatment or surgery if you experience the following symptoms:

• Swollen, bleeding gums, especially when brushing or flossing.
• Persistent bad breath.
• Gum recession, where the teeth appear longer than usual.
• Loose teeth or changes in your bite.
• Pain or discomfort when chewing.

Our Gum Treatment & Surgery Services

At Happy Smile Dental Care, we offer a comprehensive range of gum treatments and surgical options designed to restore your gum health:

1. Scaling and Root Planing: This non-surgical treatment involves cleaning the surfaces of your teeth and removing plaque and tartar below the gumline. It’s typically used to treat gingivitis and early stages of periodontitis.

2. Gingivectomy (Gum Surgery): In cases where gum disease has caused severe damage, a gingivectomy may be performed. This procedure involves removing unhealthy gum tissue to allow the gums to heal and restore their proper function.

3. Flap Surgery (Pocket Reduction Surgery): For advanced periodontitis, flap surgery is used to access and clean the deeper layers of gum and bone tissue. It helps to reduce gum pockets and prevent further infection.

4. Bone Grafting: When gum disease has caused significant bone loss, a bone graft can be used to restore the bone structure around the teeth. This is often done in combination with other procedures to stabilize the teeth and prevent tooth loss.

5. Soft Tissue Grafting: If gum recession has exposed the roots of your teeth, soft tissue grafting can restore lost gum tissue and reduce sensitivity, preventing further damage.

6. Laser Gum Surgery: A minimally invasive treatment that uses laser technology to remove infected tissue and promote faster healing with minimal discomfort.
