Gum Treatment (Periodontal Care) in Lucknow
Treat bleeding, swollen or receding gums before they affect your teeth
Gum (periodontal) disease is an infection of the tissues that support the teeth. Found early, it can usually be controlled; if ignored, it can lead to loose teeth.
What is gum disease?
It starts as gingivitis (red, swollen gums that bleed when you brush), caused by plaque and tartar at the gumline. Without treatment it can progress to periodontitis, where the gums pull away from the teeth and the bone that supports them is slowly lost.
Treatment focuses on removing plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, controlling the infection and helping the gums heal. Advanced cases may need gum surgery.
Gingivitis
Inflamed gums that bleed easily. Usually reversible with professional cleaning and good home care.
Periodontitis
The gums separate from the teeth, forming pockets, and bone support starts to be lost.
Advanced periodontitis
Significant bone loss; teeth may become loose and need further treatment.
See a dentist if you notice…
