Description

Gum treatment for teeth varies from daily brushing and flossing for early gingivitis to non-surgical deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) for mild cases, and surgical procedures like pocket reduction surgery, bone grafts, and guided tissue regeneration for more advanced gum disease, often performed by a periodontist. Treatment success relies on continued good oral hygiene at home and addressing contributing dental issues, with dentists recommending treatment plans that may include prescription mouth rinses, antibiotics, or specific medications.
