Why do you need to treat gum disease?

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a serious infection that can damage the gums and bone that support teeth. Left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss. It's important to treat gum disease because it can cause pain, inflammation, and bad breath. Untreated gum disease can also increase your risk of developing other health problems, such as heart disease and diabetes. Magnum Clinic has the best gum specialist doctor for gum recession, bleeding, and bleaching treatment.

What is the procedure for gum treatment?

The procedure generally includes a deep cleaning, which helps to remove plaque and tartar from your gums. This can help to improve gum health and reduce the risk of gum disease. Gum treatment may also include the use of antibiotics or other medications to help improve gum health.

What if we ignore gum disease?

If gum disease is left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss, gum bleeding and other health problems. Gingivitis, the mildest form of gum disease, can be reversed with good oral hygiene practices. However, if gingivitis is left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more serious form of the disease. Periodontitis can lead to tooth loss and other health problems. So don’t ignore it; consult with Magnum Dental Clinic in Dubai nearby you for gum disease treatment.

Prevention of Gum Diseases

Practising daily oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and using an antiseptic mouthwash, is crucial for preventing gum disease. It is advisable to use toothpaste containing fluoride and replace toothbrushes every one to three months. A balanced diet is essential for promoting healthy gums and teeth. It is important to minimise the consumption of sugary foods and beverages, as they promote bacterial adhesion and plaque accumulation. To reduce inflammation, drinking an ample amount of water stimulates salivary production, diluting toxins from plaque. Regular dental visits and examinations aid in identifying and addressing potential infections, while advanced stages of the disease may require more extensive treatments.

Different types of gum diseases?

The three most common types of gum diseases are gingivitis, periodontitis, and periimplantitis. Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease that causes inflammation and redness in the gums. If left untreated, gingivitis can develop into periodontitis, a more serious form of gum disease that damages the tissues and bones that support teeth. Periimplantitis is a form of gum disease that affects dental implants.

Gum disease post-treatment care instructions

Following a periodontal treatment, it is important to maintain good oral hygiene habits to ensure the treated area heals properly. Patients should brush their teeth at least twice a day and floss once a day. They should also avoid biting on hard objects, such as ice, and rinse their mouths with salt water or mouthwash. If patients experience any pain or swelling following treatment, they should contact their dentist.

How much does gum disease treatment cost in Dubai?

Gum disease treatment in Dubai  can vary in price, depending on the severity of the problem and what procedures are necessary to treat it. In some cases, a simple deep cleaning may be all that is required, while more complicated procedures such as surgery or bone grafting may be necessary for more severe cases.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you permanently get rid of gum disease?
While gum disease can be effectively treated and managed, it may not be permanently "cured" as it can reoccur if proper oral hygiene and maintenance are not upheld. Regular dental visits, good oral care practices, and addressing underlying factors like smoking or medical conditions are key to preventing gum disease from returning.
What gum disease is not curable?
Advanced stages of gum disease, such as severe periodontitis with extensive tissue and bone damage, might not be completely curable. While treatments can manage the condition, they may not fully reverse the extensive structural damage. Early intervention and proper maintenance offer the best chances of preventing gum disease from progressing to an irreversible stage.
What is a serious gum disease?
Serious gum disease, known as periodontitis, is an advanced condition characterized by inflammation and infection of the gums. It involves the destruction of supporting bone and tissues around teeth, leading to pockets between teeth and gums, gum recession, and potentially tooth mobility or loss. Prompt treatment and consistent oral care are crucial to prevent the progression of this severe form of gum disease.

What are the different treatments for gum disease?
Treatments for gum disease include scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), prescription antibiotics, and in more advanced cases, surgical procedures like flap surgery or bone grafts to address tissue and bone loss. Regular dental cleanings, improved oral hygiene practices, and lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking are also integral to managing and preventing gum disease.
How long does gum disease treatment take?
The duration of gum disease treatment varies depending on the severity of the condition. Mild cases can be addressed in a few appointments, while more advanced cases requiring surgical interventions might span over several visits. After initial treatment, ongoing maintenance and follow-up appointments are necessary to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment and to prevent recurrence.
Can gum disease be reversed?
Gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease characterized by gum inflammation, can often be reversed with professional dental cleanings and improved oral hygiene practices. However, once gum disease progresses to more advanced stages like periodontitis with bone loss, the damage is usually not reversible, but it can be managed and further progression can be halted with appropriate treatments and consistent oral care.
Can gum disease treatment be combined with other dental procedures?
Yes, gum disease treatment can be combined with other dental procedures like dental fillings, crowns, or even cosmetic treatments like veneers. However, coordination between the treating dentist and specialists might be needed to ensure that the procedures are sequenced appropriately and that the gum disease is under control before proceeding with other treatments.
What is laser gum treatment?
Laser gum treatment, also known as laser-assisted periodontal therapy, involves using a dental laser to treat gum disease. It can target and remove infected tissue, reduce inflammation, and aid in gum reattachment. Laser gum treatment is often less invasive, leading to faster healing times and reduced discomfort compared to traditional methods.
What are your dental clinic timings?
Magnum Dental clinics remain open from 9 AM to 11 PM every day. However, in the case of unforeseen situations, the timing may differ on that particular day. Our Clinics are open on weekends.
