Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth. At Faizal Dental Care in Erode, we provide advanced gum disease treatments to restore your oral health and prevent complications like gum recession and tooth loss.
Our experienced periodontists will conduct a thorough examination to assess the severity of your gum disease and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. Treatment options may include professional dental cleanings, scaling and root planing, antibiotic therapy, and surgical procedures, such as gum grafting or pocket reduction surgery.
Professional dental cleanings are essential for removing plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth and gums, reducing inflammation and preventing the progression of gum disease. Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning procedure that involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots to promote healing and prevent bacterial growth.
Antibiotic therapy may be prescribed to eliminate bacteria and reduce inflammation in the gums. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to address advanced gum disease and restore gum health. Gum grafting procedures can be performed to cover exposed tooth roots and prevent further gum recession, while pocket reduction surgery aims to reduce the depth of periodontal pockets and promote gum attachment to the teeth.
