Treatment Overview
Gum Treatment · Periodontology
Gum disease is a silent, progressive condition that can lead to tooth loss if left untreated — yet early diagnosis and regular professional cleaning bring it fully under control.
We provide comprehensive periodontal diagnosis, treatment and structured maintenance care for long-term gum health.
- Gingivitis — red, swollen, bleeding gums; fully reversible with timely treatment
- Periodontitis — attachment and bone loss requiring prompt structured care
- Professional cleaning to remove plaque and calculus
- Sub-gingival scaling and root planing to control inflammation
- Periodontal surgery and bone graft protocols for advanced defects
- Adjunctive antibiotic therapy only when clearly indicated
With early diagnosis and a structured recall programme, gum disease can be reliably controlled — we usually recommend two professional cleanings per year.
Frequently Asked
Common patient questions
Why do my gums bleed?
The most common cause is gingivitis caused by plaque around the gum line. It typically resolves with a professional cleaning and an improved brushing technique.
Is professional scaling harmful?
No — it does not damage enamel. We routinely recommend professional cleaning once or twice a year as part of preventive care.
Can gum recession be reversed?
Mild recession can be stabilised with structured treatment, while more advanced defects can be restored using gum grafting techniques.
