Understanding Gingivitis
Gingivitis is a common gum disease characterized by inflammation of the gums. If left untreated, it can progress into a more severe condition known as periodontitis. Early intervention and professional, advanced gingivitis treatment are crucial to preventing long-term damage to your teeth and gums.
Signs and Symptoms of Gingivitis
Gingivitis often presents with the following symptoms:
- Red, swollen gums
- Bleeding gums
- Bad breath
- Persistent mouth sores
- Tender gums
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is essential to schedule an appointment with one of our experienced dentists. Early detection and intervention can significantly improve the outcome of gingivitis treatment.
Our Approach to Advanced Gingivitis Treatment
At Teeth At Tiong Bahru, we take a comprehensive approach to gingivitis treatment. Our team of skilled dentists and orthodontists are experienced in providing personalized care for every patient.
Thorough Dental Examination
During your initial consultation, our dentists will conduct a thorough examination to assess the severity of your gingivitis. This examination may include:
- Visual inspection of gums and teeth
- Probing to measure pocket depth
- Dental X-rays to evaluate underlying bone structure
By understanding the extent of the disease, we can tailor an effective treatment plan specifically for you.
Deep Cleaning and Scaling
One of the most common treatments for gingivitis is professional deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing. This process involves:
- Removing tartar and plaque buildup
- Smoothing the tooth root surfaces to prevent bacterial adherence
Our skilled dental hygienists use specialized tools to perform this procedure, ensuring a thorough and comfortable experience for our patients.
