Gum disease is caused due to bacteria accumulation in the tissue around the teeth. When you don’t follow regular dental hygiene practices, including flossing & brushing of teeth, the bacteria level will increase and lead to gum disease.​​

• Chewing & smoking tobacco can make your gum tissue weak
• Consuming specific oral Contraceptives medications can cause the abnormal growth of gum tissues.
• Misaligned & crooked teeth
• Hormonal changes can make your gum sensitive and lead to gum disease.
• It could be due to genetic problems
• Illness like HIV and cancer makes your immune system weak and increases the chances of developing gums.
• People who are diabetic are more prone to gum disease.

• Pain while chewing
• Sensitive & loose teeth
• Spitting blood after brushing teeth
• Pus discharge
• Receding gums
• Bad breath
• Pulling gums away from teeth
• Swollen, red, and tender gums
• Ill-fitting partial dentures
• Huge space between teeth and gums.

• Gingivitis: It is the initial stage of gum disease that develops due to plaque build-up on gums. When plaque is not gone after flossing and brushing it d, it develops irritation. In this stage, you will notice bleeding gums while brushing and flossing. In this stage, bone is not affected, so the chances of recovery are quite high.

• Periodontitis: When you don’t take treatment for Gingivitis and neglect the condition, it will reach the second stage, which is Periodontitis. In this stage, your bones will start to be affected. The spaces are formed between the gum line and bone, and as a result, the bacteria will get space food lodgement. When you visit the dentist on time, the condition can be treated. This is an advanced gum disease that needs treatment as soon as possible.

• Advanced periodontitis: It is the final stage where your bone will be destroyed and your tooth loosens. The condition can only be recovered after surgery. If the case is severe, even surgery can’t save your tooth, and tooth extraction is the only solution.

If you catch the condition in the early stages, it can be recovered through root planing and scaling. If the condition is severe, then it can be treated through surgical and non-surgical methods.

• Bone graft: The treatment is used for regenerating the bone. The dentist uses fragments of donated bone, synthetic bone, and bone that is used to replace the bone that is destroyed because of gum diseases.

• Soft tissue graft: This treatment is used if you have receded gums. Gums are taken from the root of the mouth, and then it is stitched to the gum recession area.

• Flap surgery: In this treatment, the incision is made on the gums to eliminate tartar. Sometimes, the irregular bone surface is smoothened so that there are no spaces for the bacteria. It is used for eliminating the gap between teeth and gums.

• Guided tissue regeneration: This treatment is done along with the flap surgery which supports the teeth that are destroyed. Your dentist will insert a small piece of mesh-like fabric between the gum tissues and bone.

• Deep Cleaning: Non-surgical treatment takes place in the initial stage of developing gum disease. When you reach us, our dentist will eliminate the tartar and plaque from above and below the gum line. Take this preventive measure that helps you to save from gum disease.

• Root Planing & Scaling: It’s a deep cleansing process. When you reach our clinic, the dentist will give you the local anesthetic to start the procedure. After that, the dentist removes the tartar and plaque from above and below the gum line. They will smoothen your rough spots by eliminating the bacteria.
