Gum Disease Treatment

Gum Disease Treatment in Karachi at Rehan Dental Surgery

Gum disease Treatment in Karachi is described as swelling, soreness, or infection of the tissues supporting the teeth. There are two main forms of gum disease: gingivitis and periodontal disease.

Gingivitis means ‘inflammation of the gums. This is when the gums around the teeth become very red and swollen. Often the swollen gums bleed when they are brushed during cleaning.

Long-standing gingivitis can turn into periodontal disease. There are a number of types of periodontal disease and they all affect the tissues supporting the teeth. As the disease gets worse the bone anchoring the teeth in the jaw is lost, making the teeth lose. If this is not treated, the teeth may eventually fall out.

Typically, Gum Disease Treatment at Rehan Dental surgery uses special instruments to clean (debride) teeth below the gum line and disrupt any plaque growing below the gum line. This is a standard treatment to prevent any further progress of established periodontics. Studies show that after such a professional cleaning (periodontal debridement), microbial plaque tends to grow back to pre-cleaning levels after about three to four months. Nonetheless, the continued stabilization of a patient’s periodontal state depends largely, if not primarily, on the patient’s oral hygiene at home, as well as on the go. Without daily oral hygiene, periodontal disease will not be overcome, especially if the patient has a history of extensive periodontal disease.
