Gingivitis (gum disease) and periodontitis (extensive gum disease) are a quite common dental problem, which requires treatment as it can lead to teeth mobility or even loss. Also, they are connected to other diseases such as diabetes or cardiological problems, where they can add to the problem.

Gum diseases are caused by bacteria that gather around the teeth and create dental plaque and calculus.

We recommend a 6-month teeth scaling for the treatment/prevention of gingivitis, which is being done pain-free by an ultrasonic scaler.

The treatment of periodontitis is more complicated and needs more than one appointment. After that, the patient gets on a 3 or 6-month recall system depending on the severity of case.
