Gum Related Therapy

G um health is a vital part of maintaining strong teeth, fresh breath, and long-term oral hygiene. Gum Related Therapy focuses on diagnosing and treating issues such as bleeding gums, swelling, gum recession, persistent bad breath, and infections that affect the supporting structures of the teeth. When left untreated, gum disease can gradually destroy the tissues and bone that keep teeth stable, eventually leading to tooth loss.

At Apex Dentals in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow, Dr. Gaurav Gupta offers comprehensive therapy designed to restore gum health, prevent disease progression, and provide lasting protection for your teeth. Early detection plays a key role, as many gum problems begin silently with mild symptoms that often go unnoticed until the condition becomes more severe.

Gum therapy typically begins with a detailed gum evaluation, including measuring pocket depth, assessing tissue inflammation, and checking for bone loss. Depending on the condition, treatment may involve deep cleaning procedures, scaling and root planing, infection control, or maintenance cleanings. These treatments help remove plaque, tartar, and harmful bacteria from below the gum line, allowing the gums to heal naturally.

Deep cleaning is one of the most effective non-surgical therapies for treating gum disease. It smoothens the root surfaces, reduces bacterial buildup, and helps the gums reattach firmly to the teeth. Patients experiencing issues like bleeding while brushing, persistent bad breath, loosened teeth, or sensitivity often find significant relief after undergoing professional gum therapy.

For more advanced gum problems, additional supportive treatments may be recommended to regenerate lost tissue or bone. However, maintaining good oral hygiene remains essential. Regular dental visits, proper brushing techniques, flossing, and avoiding tobacco greatly reduce the risk of gum disease returning.

Healthy gums not only support strong teeth but also contribute to overall well-being. Research has shown a strong connection between gum disease and systemic conditions such as diabetes and heart disease. Therefore, maintaining gum health is important not just for your smile, but for your complete health.
