Gum issues can be very hard to detect in their early stages.

Often patients will not notice any symptoms for quite some time. However, one of the first telltale signs of gum disease is bleeding gums. Many people ignore this issue when actually it could be a sign of a developing problem. If you have started to experience bleeding gums then it is important that you seek help and advice from a professional. Preferably a Specialist Periodontist who knows a lot about gum problems and effective ways to treat or manage them.

Periodontal treatments may include any of the following:

When Periodontitis (gum disease) develops there are different treatments that could be effective. These could include deep cleaning and scaling for a thorough removal of plaque or a periodontal surgery. This will be explored in your consultation.
As well as Periodontitis treatments for gum recession there may also be the option of tissue grafting or bone regeneration if needed. Effective treatment will depend on the cause, which can be determined via an examination.
Patients may also need a crown lengthening procedure to extend the size of the tooth that is visible. Similarly, patients who have a gummy smile could have their gums reshaped to change the look of the smile.
