Periodontic Services at Daant Guru
01
Gingivitis Treatment
Gingivitis is an early stage of gum disease characterised by red, swollen gums that bleed easily. At Daant Guru, we offer professional cleanings, plaque control, and customised home-care regimens to reverse the effects of gingivitis and prevent it from advancing to periodontitis.
02
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Periodontitis, a severe form of gum disease, can cause gum recession, bone loss, and tooth mobility. Our treatments include scaling and root planing, laser-assisted therapy, and, in advanced cases, surgical intervention to restore gum health and stabilise the teeth.
03
Tartar Removal
Tartar, also known as dental calculus, is hardened plaque that can lead to gum irritation and periodontal issues. Our specialised tartar removal treatments use ultrasonic scaling tools to remove tartar from above and below the gumline, ensuring clean, healthy gums.
04
Plaque Removal
Plaque is a sticky biofilm that harbors bacteria, leading to gum inflammation and cavities. Our professional cleanings target plaque buildup in hard-to-reach areas, preventing gum disease and maintaining overall oral health.
05
Bad Breath Treatment
Persistent bad breath (halitosis) can stem from periodontal issues. We provide professional cleaning, gum treatment, and customised advice to address the root causes of halitosis and help restore your confidence.
06
Tooth Erosion Prevention
Gum issues can exacerbate tooth erosion caused by acidic foods, grinding, or other factors. Our preventive measures include fluoride treatments, dental sealants, and lifestyle recommendations to protect enamel and gum health.
07
Periodontal Maintenance
For patients who have undergone treatment for gum disease, we offer regular periodontal maintenance sessions. These cleanings focus on controlling plaque and tartar buildup and monitoring gum health to prevent recurrence.
08
Tooth Mobility Stabilisation
Advanced gum disease can cause tooth mobility. We provide splinting techniques and periodontal treatments to stabilise teeth and prevent further complications.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is scaling and root planing, and when is it necessary?
Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical procedure used to treat periodontal disease. Scaling involves removing plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces, while root planing smooths the root surfaces to promote gum reattachment. This treatment is necessary when periodontal pockets exceed 3 mm in depth, indicating the presence of gum disease.
How can bad breath be related to periodontal disease, and what treatments are available?
Persistent bad breath, or halitosis, can be a symptom of periodontal disease caused by bacteria in the mouth producing foul odors. Treatments focus on eliminating the underlying gum infection through professional cleanings, scaling and root planing, improved oral hygiene practices, and sometimes antimicrobial therapies.
Are there any risks associated with scaling and root planing?
While scaling and root planing are generally safe and effective procedures, some potential risks include increased tooth sensitivity, gum recession, and a slight risk of infection. However, these risks are minimal, and the benefits of treating periodontal disease far outweigh them. It’s essential to follow your dentist’s aftercare instructions to minimise any potential complications.
Can periodontal disease affect overall health?
Yes, periodontal disease has been linked to various systemic health issues, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory infections, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. The inflammation and bacteria associated with periodontal disease can enter the bloodstream, potentially impacting other parts of the body. Maintaining good periodontal health is essential not only for preserving your teeth and gums but also for supporting overall health.
