Gums are the foundation of teeth. Hence, loss in strength of gums can ultimately lead to tooth loss. Bleeding gums, bad breath, bad taste, and discoloration of gums, cheek, and tongue are warning signs and should be promptly treated. Bleeding of gums following brushing, pain on chewing food, developing spaces between teeth, extrusion of teeth, etc. are signs of a progressing gum disease.
Scaling, root planing, flap surgeries, gingivectomy, and bone and soft tissue grafting are the common periodontal procedures. A range of periodontal cosmetic procedures like gummy smile correction, gingival depigmentation, and black triangle corrections are performed frequently as smile enhancement procedures. Conventional and laser-assisted treatment protocols are followed by experienced doctors at Kamala Dental in performing these treatments.
