Advanced Gum Treatment

Advanced gum treatment, also known as periodontal therapy, is crucial for addressing severe gum disease (periodontitis) and restoring gum and bone health. When gum disease progresses beyond gingivitis, it can lead to significant issues such as gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss. Treatment options include scaling and root planing, a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line while smoothing the tooth roots to encourage gum reattachment. Gum grafting may be performed to replace lost gum tissue and cover exposed roots. Laser therapy offers a minimally invasive option that targets infected tissue and promotes healing. In severe cases, surgical procedures like flap surgery or bone grafting may be necessary to restore the underlying bone structure. Overall, advanced gum treatments aim to halt disease progression, protect teeth, and restore oral health, ensuring long-term stability and function.
