Periodontal Treatment

Healthy gums are the foundation that supports your teeth.
Even if your teeth appear healthy, gum disease can silently progress and significantly shorten the lifespan of your natural teeth.
Regular dental check-ups and early treatment are the keys to maintaining healthy gums and preserving your natural teeth for life.

What Is Periodontal Treatment?

Periodontal treatment is the process of treating inflammation and damage that occur in the gums and alveolar bone that support the teeth. Periodontal disease often has few noticeable symptoms in its early stage, so it is easy to neglect, but as it progresses it can lead to tooth mobility and even tooth loss. With regular gum care and proper treatment, both the teeth and gums can be kept healthy for a long time.

The Difference Between
Gingivitis and Periodontitis

  • Healthy Condition

    Healthy Condition

    There is no inflammation, pus, or other abnormal finding in the gums, and the tissues are in a healthy condition.

  • Gingivitis

    Gingivitis

    Scaling Treatment

    Inflammation develops in the gums, causing swelling and occasional bleeding during brushing.

  • Early Periodontitis

    Early Periodontitis

    Periodontal Treatment

    The space between the gums and teeth becomes loosened, pain is felt, and bad breath becomes worse.

  • Advanced Periodontitis

    Extraction and Implant

    The tooth becomes loose, pus forms in the gums, and severe pain occurs.

Gum disease is often broadly referred to as periodontal disease and can be divided into gingivitis and periodontitis depending on the stage and severity.
Gingivitis refers to a relatively mild form that recovers quickly and in which inflammation is limited to the soft gum tissue.
Periodontitis refers to a condition in which inflammation has progressed beyond the gums into the supporting bone around the teeth.
