Treatment for Gum Disease

At West City Dental Implant & Cosmetic Clinic, we provide specialised treatments for moderate to severe gum disease (periodontitis) to help restore your oral health. Our approach includes advanced procedures such as scaling and root planing to remove deep-seated plaque and tartar, and antibiotic therapy to control infection. For more severe cases, we offer surgical options like flap surgery to clean infected areas, and bone or tissue grafts to repair damaged structures. Our experienced dental team use the latest techniques to halt the progression of gum disease, ensuring effective results and long-term oral health for our patients.

Stages of Treatment

Treating severe gum disease typically involves the following stages:

Initial Assessment: A thorough dental examination to evaluate the extent of the gum disease.
Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing): Removing plaque and tartar from deep pockets around the teeth and smoothing the tooth roots to promote healing.
Antibiotic Therapy: Topical or oral antibiotics to reduce bacterial infection.
Surgical Treatment (if necessary): Procedures such as flap surgery to access and clean infected areas, or bone and tissue grafts to regenerate damaged structures.
Ongoing Maintenance: Regular dental visits, deep cleanings, and a strict oral hygiene routine to prevent recurrence.

Each stage aims to stop the disease, restore gum health, and prevent further damage.
