What is Gum Disease?
Gum disease (periodontal disease) is an infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth caused by plaque and tartar buildup.
It progresses in stages:
-
Gingivitis (Early Stage)
• Red, swollen gums
• Bleeding while brushing
• Mild bad breath
Reversible with professional scaling and oral hygiene improvement.
-
Periodontitis (Advanced Stage)
• Gum recession
• Pus formation
• Tooth mobility
• Bone loss around teeth
Requires specialized periodontal treatment.
If untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and may impact overall health.
Common Signs & Symptoms
- Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Swollen or tender gums
- Gum recession
- Loose teeth
- Pain while chewing
Causes of Gum Disease
• Poor oral hygiene
• Smoking or tobacco use
• Diabetes
• Hormonal changes
• Genetic predisposition
• Irregular dental visits
Routine Scaling & Preventive Dental Care significantly reduce risk.
Types of Gum Disease Treatment
-
Professional Scaling & Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
Deep cleaning removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line and smoothens root surfaces.
Recommended for:
• Moderate gum disease
• Early bone loss
• Persistent inflammation
Often performed under local anaesthesia.
-
Laser-Assisted Gum Therapy
Advanced cases may benefit from Laser Dentistry techniques to:
• Reduce bacterial load
• Minimize bleeding
• Promote faster healing
Laser treatment improves comfort and precision.
-
Gum Surgery (When Required)
In severe periodontitis, minor surgical procedures may be needed to:
• Remove deep infection
• Reduce periodontal pockets
• Regenerate lost tissue
How Gum Disease Treatment is Performed?
-
Dental Evaluation
Clinical examination and X-rays assess bone levels and pocket depth.
-
Diagnosis & Staging
Severity is determined (gingivitis or periodontitis).
-
Deep Cleaning / Laser Therapy
Infection is removed using scaling, root planing, or laser-assisted techniques.

? Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can bleeding gums heal on their own?
