Gum treatment and surgery becomes necessary if you suffer from gum diseases. The gum is responsible for holding the teeth in place. If the gum itself becomes unstable, it can eventually lead to tooth loss. Additionally, bleeding from the gums and swelling makes one look unpleasant. At Dr Pravin Bonde’s Dental Clinic, we treat gum diseases with scientific technology and precision. Before, asking our patients to undergo any of the gum treatments or surgeries, we ensure to check the symptoms.

You are a candidate for gum treatment and surgery, if you have the following symptoms.
If your gums bleed, when you brush your teeth or floss, you must consult our experts for a proper diagnosis.

Gum Treatment and Surgery Procedure
At our clinics, we have a variety of gum treatment and surgical options, to help you flaunt healthy gums. They include:
Non-Surgical Treatments
Dental Scaling –
If you are suffering from moderate gum disease, then general dental cleaning may be sufficient to address your issue. In such cases, teeth scaling is done to remove all the plaque and tartar build-up.
Root Planning –
Our dental experts clean the roots to prevent future build-up of plaque and tartar/calculus and may also introduce antibiotics into the teeth pockets, to prevent bacterial attacks.
Surgical Treatments
Flap Surgery –
This is an excellent surgical method that stops the progression of gum diseases. It involves incisions on the gums and exicion of the damaged tissues, to check the roots and jawbone. We carry out such procedures under anaesthesia.
Crown Lengthening –
If you are going for dental crown placement, but the tooth height is not enough for their placement, you may have to opt for crown lengthening.
Gum Depigmentation –
If you have unsightly ,black gums, then this treatment may be for you.
Guided Bone Regeneration –
This procedure is aimed at increasing bone volume. We use it mostly in conjunction with dental implants. Many patients lack vertical or horizontal bone volume. We use this technique of GBR to provide space for new bone, through the use of barrier membranes.
Pocket Reduction Surgery –
If you are suffering from advanced gum disease, and do not respond well to scaling and root planning, this is for you. It addresses the underlying damaged tissues in the gums.
Mucogingival Surgery –
Also called periodontal plastic surgery, it address issues of gums tearing away from the root of the teeth and attaching itself to the cheek tissues. If not treated on time, such a condition can lead to excessive gum recession. If conventional methods are not successful, we suggest this option to our patients.
Frenectomy –
This is one of the best treatment options for adults and kids alike. It is done to remove the connective tissue that connects the upper or lower lips with the gums. Abnormalities in the frenum may cause speech issues and front teeth deformities.
Gingivectomy –
This treatment option involves the removal of infected gums and tissues. It can also be used to treat gummy smiles.
