Expert Gum Disease Treatment in Bhubaneswar
What is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the gums that can affect your overall oral health. It starts with plaque buildup on your teeth, which can lead to swollen, bleeding gums. If left untreated, gum disease can progress to more serious issues, including tooth loss. But don’t worry! With the right treatment and care, we can help you restore your gum health and keep your smile shining.
Signs You Might Have Gum Disease
Bleeding GumsIf your gums bleed when you brush or floss, it may be a sign of gum disease.
- Swollen or Red Gums
Healthy gums should be pink and firm. Swelling or redness can indicate inflammation.
- Deposits on the Tooth Surface
Tartar (dental calculus) is hardened plaque that can lead to gum disease by causing inflammation and infection if not removed through professional dental cleaning.
- Persistent Bad Breath
Bad breath that doesn’t go away can be a sign of gum infection.
- Receding Gums
If your gums seem to be pulling away from your teeth, it may be time to consult with us.
Our Gum Disease Treatment Process
When you come in for gum disease treatment, here’s what you can expect
We’ll start with a thorough examination of your gums and teeth to assess your oral health and identify the level of gum disease.
Our team will perform a deep cleaning procedure known as scaling and root planing. This involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line, helping to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
After treatment, we’ll schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your gums are healing well. We’re here to support you every step of the way!
We’ll provide you with tips and techniques to maintain good oral hygiene at home, helping you keep your gums healthy and happy.
