The gum therapy treatment process typically involves the following steps:

1. Comprehensive Examination: Your dentist will conduct a thorough assessment of your oral health, which may include measuring the depth of gum pockets, evaluating gum tissue quality, and taking X-rays to assess bone loss.
2. Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planning): If gum disease is present, the initial phase of treatment involves removing plaque, tartar, and bacteria from above and below the gumline through a procedure called scaling and root planning. This process helps eliminate infection and promote gum healing.
3. Periodontal Maintenance: Following scaling and root planning, our experts may recommend regular periodontal maintenance visits to monitor your gum health, remove any remaining plaque or tartar, and prevent the recurrence of gum disease.
4. Surgical Interventions: In severe cases of gum disease or if non-surgical treatments are ineffective, surgical interventions such as gum flap surgery, bone grafting, or tissue regeneration procedures may be recommended to restore gum health and prevent further damage.
