Gum disease is a very destructive disease that attacks not just the gums (the gingiva), but also the bone support around each tooth. We at Dr. Pandit’s Clinic for Dental Excellence and Implant offer world-class gum treatment in Pune at an affordable cost.
Many people have straight teeth, no history of tooth decay, and yet still lose their teeth! This can be attributed to the aggressiveness of gingivitis, and is just one of the many reasons why visiting the dentist on a regular basis is so important.
If you notice any of the following signs or symptoms you more than likely are experiencing gingivitis:
Treatment for Gum Disease: If you have been diagnosed with gum disease, or suspect that you have it; you need to radically change the way you take care of your oral health.
Recommend that you receive a deep cleaning (scaling and root planning), a very meticulous cleaning that removes bacteria and harmful debris. It is usually completed within a 1.5-hour appointment. Anesthesia may be used to ensure your complete comfort.
Recommend a prescription mouthwash to jump-start the healing of your gum tissue. This peridex mouthwash (chlorhexidine) is antibacterial and will assist your mouth in keeping bacteria under control.
Instruct you on proper home care habits. You will need to use a high-quality electric toothbrush, as well as dental floss on a regular basis.
In the future, you will need to see your dental hygienist more frequently, about every three or four months, until the gum disease is resolved. Gingivitis requires additional attention and maintenance procedures, which is why it is so vitally important to be seen regularly.
Most insurance companies will decline to pay for more than two dental cleanings per year. It is very important to remember that insurance should never dictate your quality or quantity of care.
