Gum treatment refers to the procedures and interventions used to address and treat various gum-related diseases which are caused by bacteria, which lead to inflammation, bleeding gums and if left untreated, can result in tooth loss eventually. Gum Diseases usually go unnoticed and slowly turn aggressive in nature. The most important cause of gum disease is plaque and poor oral hygiene but it may also occur due to an underlying medical problem such as heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and other such conditions. Therefore, it is important for it to be diagnosed by a periodontist and caught at an early stage.

Scaling and Root Planing: This deep cleaning procedure is used to treat gum disease in its early stages. Scaling removes tartar from below the gum line, while root planing smooths the roots of the teeth to help the gums reattach.
