Gum Disease Treatment

Have you noticed any of the following symptoms?

  • Persistent bad breath?
  • Gums that are red, swollen, tender, or bleed easily?
  • Discomfort while chewing?
  • Teeth that feel loose or sensitive?
  • Gums that are receding, making your teeth appear longer?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you might be at risk for gum disease. This prevalent condition can vary in severity, and if not addressed, it can lead to significant damage to your teeth, bone, and soft tissue, potentially resulting in tooth loss.

Research has even suggested a connection between gum disease and overall health issues, including a higher risk of heart disease and unstable blood sugar levels. Additionally, studies have linked gum disease in pregnant women to premature births and low birth weights.

Understanding Gum Disease

Gum disease begins when bacteria in your mouth form plaque on your teeth. Regular brushing and flossing can help eliminate plaque, but if it is not removed, it hardens into tartar, which requires professional dental cleaning to be removed. Several factors can increase the risk of developing gum disease, including smoking, hormonal changes in women, diabetes, specific diseases, medications that reduce saliva flow, and even genetic predisposition.

Types of Gum Disease

Gum disease manifests in various forms, with gingivitis being the most common. This condition causes inflammation of the gums, resulting in redness and easy bleeding. Gingivitis is typically mild and can be reversed through proper oral hygiene practices such as brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups.

However, if left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis. This more severe form of gum disease leads to gums pulling away from the teeth, creating pockets that can become infected. This infection can damage the connective tissue and bone that support your teeth, often necessitating extractions.

Treatment Options for Gum Disease


At Morayfield Dental Studio, we offer both non-surgical and surgical treatment options for gum disease. Non-surgical treatments may include deep cleaning procedures aimed at removing plaque and tartar buildup, as well as the use of medications or specialized mouthwashes to aid in your recovery.

For more advanced cases, surgical options may be necessary. These could involve procedures designed to reduce the pockets formed by receding gums, allowing them to fit more snugly around the teeth. In some instances, grafts may be used to regenerate bone or tissue that has been lost due to the disease.
