Gum Disease Treatment & Care in Yelahanka
What Have You Noticed About Your Gums?
Look at the Gum Edge
The green highlight marks the gum margin—the area that may become inflamed and bleed. Bleeding has several possible contributors; an examination identifies the cause.
Your next step: Arrange a gum-health examination.

When More of the Root Is Exposed
The gumline has moved down in this illustration, exposing more root surface. This can be associated with sensitivity. We examine the cause and how much support remains.
Your next step: Ask about the gum level, cleaning technique and sensitivity.

A Space Beside the Tooth Root
The highlighted space illustrates a deeper pocket beside a root. Gum measurements and, where indicated, X-rays help establish the extent of the problem.
Your next step: The findings help us decide whether deep cleaning or further care is needed.

The Support Around a Tooth Matters
Reduced support can contribute to tooth movement. A loose tooth can also have other causes. The illustration does not predict whether a tooth can be retained.
Your next step: Arrange prompt examination for new movement or a changing bite.

Cleaning Above and Below the Gumline
The small marks represent deposits on the root. Where deposits lie and the gum findings influence the cleaning needed. Daily cleaning and professional treatment have different roles.
Your next step: Let the examination determine the appropriate cleaning and review plan.

Gums Can Be One Source of Bad Breath
The highlighted gum edge shows one area the clinician examines. Tongue coating, dental problems and dry mouth can also contribute; symptoms alone cannot establish the source.
Your next step: Begin with a check of your mouth and gums before choosing a gum procedure.

Your Gum-Care Plan, Step by Step
1 · Cleaning and Home-Care Support
Professional cleaning removes deposits that are difficult to manage at home. We explain cleaning techniques for your teeth and the spaces between them.
2 · Deep Cleaning Where Needed
Scaling and root planing treats deposits below the gumline when indicated. We explain the areas involved and comfort measures. Understand deep cleaning.
3 · Review the Response
We reassess healing and gum findings before deciding whether additional treatment is needed. An initial cleaning visit does not settle every gum problem.
4 · Further Treatment for Selected Areas
Some sites need further access through periodontal surgery. Gum position may also affect cleaning, appearance or restoring a tooth. A laser may be an option for selected tasks within a plan. Read about gum surgery or understand laser gum treatment.

Keep Your Gums Healthy Between Visits
Build a Manageable Cleaning Routine
Brush twice daily with doctor-recommended toothpaste and clean between teeth using the method advised for your mouth. Ask the team to demonstrate areas you find difficult.
Share Changes in Your Health or Medicines
Tell us about diabetes, tobacco use, medicines and dry mouth. These details help us plan care and support healing.
Follow Your Personal Review Schedule
Review frequency depends on your findings and response. Report new bleeding, swelling or tooth movement rather than waiting for the next routine visit.
Questions Before Your Gum-Care Visit
Does Bleeding Mean I Need Surgery?
No. Examination determines the cause and suitable care. Many plans begin with cleaning and home-care support.
Can Treatment Save Every Loose Tooth?
The outlook depends on remaining support and other findings. We explain the likely prognosis, what may be retained and suitable alternatives.
Should I Choose a Technique Before Booking?
No. Book a gum consultation and tell us what you notice. The clinician should explain the diagnosis, treatment goals and options before you decide.
