Gum disease treatment depends on the severity of the condition, which ranges from gingivitis (mild) to periodontitis (advanced). Here’s a clear breakdown:
1. Treatment for Gingivitis (Early Gum Disease)
Goal: Reverse inflammation and restore gum health.
Professional Dental Cleaning
Removes plaque and tartar (calculus) from above and below the gum line.
Usually done during regular dental checkups.
Improved Oral Hygiene
Brushing twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
Daily flossing or use of interdental brushes.
Antibacterial mouthwash (e.g., chlorhexidine).
2. Treatment for Periodontitis (Advanced Gum Disease)
Goal: Control infection, stop bone loss, and stabilize teeth.
Scaling and Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
Scaling: Removes plaque/tartar from below the gum line.
Root planing: Smooths tooth roots to help gums reattach.
Antibiotics
Local: Applied directly into gum pockets (gels or chips).
Systemic: Oral antibiotics in case of severe infection.
Surgery (for advanced cases)
Flap Surgery (Pocket Reduction Surgery): Gums are lifted to clean deep areas; then stitched back.
Bone Grafts: Rebuilds bone destroyed by periodontitis.
Tissue Grafts: Replaces damaged gum tissue.
Guided Tissue Regeneration: Encourages bone/tissue regrowth.
