About the treatment

Gum Treatments at DentX

The long-term health of your teeth depends on the gums, ligaments and bone that support them. Gum disease often starts silently, without pain.

Gingivitis, the earliest stage, causes redness, swelling and bleeding when brushing and is reversible with professional care. Untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, where the bone supporting the teeth is lost.

Depending on the case, treatment combines deep scaling and root planing to clean infected pockets with surgical options. For gum recession, grafting can cover exposed roots and reduce sensitivity.

We also care for 'pink aesthetics': a balanced, healthy gum line that frames your teeth and your new restorations.

Gum Treatments FAQ

Got questions?

Why do my gums bleed when I brush?

Bleeding is a sign of inflammation and should be checked by a dentist.

Can gum disease be cured?

Gingivitis is reversible; periodontitis can be controlled to prevent further damage.

Is deep cleaning painful?

Local anaesthesia is used so the procedure is comfortable.

Does gum disease cause bad breath?

Yes. Bacteria in gum pockets are a common cause of persistent bad breath.
