Understand the treatment
Why gums come first
Gum disease is the most common chronic disease in dentistry and the least dramatic-feeling: gums that bleed when brushing, breath that will not freshen, teeth that slowly loosen. Underneath, bacterial deposits below the gumline inflame the tissues and quietly dissolve the bone holding your teeth — the same bone implants would one day need.
That is why gum health is stage one of every serious treatment plan. Implants placed into diseased gums inherit the disease as peri-implantitis. Crowns cemented over inflamed margins trap the problem. Treating the gums first is not an upsell before the treatment you came for — it is the difference between results that last and results that photograph well briefly.
What treatment involves
Early disease (gingivitis) usually reverses with professional cleaning and improved home care. Established periodontitis needs deep cleaning below the gumline — curettage — to remove deposits from root surfaces. Advanced cases may need surgical access or reshaping (gingivectomy). Every level is diagnosed from your photos, X-rays and probing depths, and quoted in writing.

- Inflamed pocket
Is this you?
Do your gums need attention?
Common signs of gum disease
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Red, swollen or tender gums
- Persistent bad breath or a bad taste
- Gums pulling away from teeth; teeth looking longer
- Teeth feeling loose or drifting
Why treating it pays off4
- Stops the silent bone loss that costs teeth
- Makes implants and cosmetics possible and durable
- Fresher breath and comfortable brushing within weeks
- Protects the investment of every other treatment in your plan
Candidacy is always confirmed by the dental team through a review of your photos and X-rays — this list is general guidance, not a diagnosis.
Gains and trade-offs
Benefits and honest limitations
Benefits
- Halts disease progression in the great majority of compliant patients
- Non-surgical in most cases — cleaning and curettage do the heavy lifting
- Immediate improvement in bleeding and breath within weeks
- The prerequisite that makes every other result durable
Limitations
- Bone already lost does not grow back by cleaning alone
- Receded gums may not fully return — stability, not restoration, is the realistic goal
- Success depends heavily on your daily home care afterwards
- Smoking substantially worsens gum disease and blunts treatment response
Treatment
Gum therapy, step by step
-
Assessment
Gum condition mapped — probing depths, bleeding points, X-ray bone levels.
-
Professional cleaning
Deposits above and at the gumline removed; surfaces polished.
-
Deep cleaning (curettage)
Where pockets exist: root surfaces cleaned below the gumline under local anaesthesia.
-
Surgical care (if needed)
Gingivectomy or surgical access for advanced sites.
-
Home care protocol
A written, specific routine — because the daily ten minutes decide the long-term result.

After treatment
Recovery and risks
Recovery and risks
After deep cleaning, gums are typically tender for a day or two and may recede slightly as swelling resolves — which can expose root surfaces and cause temporary temperature sensitivity. These are signs of healing, not harm. The honest limitations: lost bone does not regrow with cleaning alone, smokers respond measurably worse, and everything gained can be lost again without daily home care. Gum treatment is a partnership — we do the professional half, and give you an exact script for yours.
Questions
Gum treatment — frequently asked questions
Ask a coordinator in your language. Send a photo if it helps: a person answers, usually within 24 hours.
Chat on WhatsAppMy gums bleed when I brush. Is that serious?
Bleeding gums are inflamed gums — the earliest and most reversible stage of gum disease. Treated now, it usually resolves with a professional cleaning and better home care. Ignored, it can progress to bone loss. Early is cheap; late is not.
Does deep cleaning hurt?
Curettage is performed under local anaesthesia; you feel pressure rather than pain. Expect tenderness and some sensitivity for a day or two afterwards.
Can gum disease be cured?
Gingivitis, yes — fully reversible. Periodontitis is controlled rather than cured: treatment stops the progression, and maintenance keeps it stopped. Bone already lost does not return with cleaning alone.
Why must gums be treated before implants?
Because the bacteria that cause gum disease attack the tissues around implants just as happily — the condition is called peri-implantitis, and it is harder to treat than gum disease around teeth. Healthy foundations first is not a slogan; it is implant survival strategy.
Will my receded gums grow back?
Usually not by themselves — the realistic goals are stopping further recession and, in selected cases, surgical coverage. We will tell you honestly which category your recession falls into.
How does smoking affect my gums?
Smoking restricts gum blood supply, masks bleeding (hiding the warning sign), and roughly doubles down on every risk in periodontal treatment. We treat smokers — with honest expectations attached.
