What is Gum Disease?

Generally, the main cause of gum disease is plaque. First seen as a gum infection causing inflammation and sensitivity, gum disease, or periodontitis causes severe, irreversible damage to the gums and jawbone.

The plaque attack can induce your immune system to fight back the infection. The aftermath will then cause the breakdown of your jawbone and connective tissue, deepening the gum grooves of your teeth sockets. Being no longer bound together by the gums, your tooth will fall off their sockets easily. Periodontitis is most likely to affect your molar teeth, but it can occur in the gum grooves of any tooth.

Several factors can induce damage to your gums. Some of them are - hormonal changes, diabetes, genetics, smoking, and very poor oral hygienic habits.

Symptoms may vary from tender and swelling gums, toothache, bad breath, increase in tooth spacing or loosened teeth, etc.

How do We Diagnose and Treat Chronic Gum Disease?

At Gum Disease Treatment Melbourne, we do the paperwork and notes on your early signs, condition of your gums, your diet, and other adverse habits like smoking, before proceeding with your treatment. We believe that understanding the etymology of the disease and a deep analysis of your lifestyle will get us more detail on the severity of your gum disease.

The second stage is the physical examination, where our dentists will evaluate your mouth for any underlying gum swelling, bleeding, depth of your tooth socket, and sensitivity. The severity of your disease will let our experts decide the most suited treatment method.

Non-Surgical methods

This is our simplest treatment technique, where our professional dentists will clean your gums. We also suggest scaling - a deeper cleaning process monitored under anesthetic supervision, where your teeth will be scrapped from plaque, and any rough spots will be removed, preventing any further accumulation of bacteria.
Other treatment methods include:

Surgical methods

• Flap surgery
• Grafts and tissue regeneration
• Bone surgery

Flap surgery is performed when the plague is a lodged a bit deeper in your gums. We will be removing a portion of your gums by a minor surgical process, and then remove the plaque. This will help in preventing any more bacterial infections in the future. When an excessive infection decays or spoils the gum tissue in your jaw, we deploy shallow bone craters that will smooth out the infected area, followed by affixing a wire mesh within which healthy tissue can overgrow after the plaque removal.

On completion of the treatment, a final note for our clients will be to go through a tutorial on preserving their teeth and gum health.
