GUM TREATMENT — DUM DUM

Gum treatment at our Dum Dum clinic

Gum disease is the most common reason adults lose teeth, and the reason it goes so far is that it rarely hurts. Bleeding when brushing gets ignored for years. By the time a tooth feels loose, the bone holding it has already been lost, and bone does not grow back on its own.

At Gupta Dental, gum treatment is handled by Dr. Ayon Gupta, MDS in Periodontology — the branch of dentistry concerned with gums and the bone supporting your teeth. Treatment is decided on measured pocket depths and X-rays rather than on appearance, because how far the disease has progressed determines whether cleaning is enough or whether surgical access is needed.

Why Choose Us

Why Choose Our Gum Treatment?

Before After aesthetic cosmetic dentistry in Dum Dumaesthetic cosmetic dentistry in Dum Dum
Treated by a Periodontist – Gum and bone disease is the specialism Dr. Ayon Gupta trained in, at MDS level. It is not offered here as an add-on to general dentistry.
Pockets Measured, Not Estimated – Gum depths are probed and charted around each tooth. That chart is what decides whether scaling is enough or whether flap surgery is required, and it gives us something to compare against at review.
Bone Loss Assessed on X-ray – Gum disease destroys bone silently. The extent is only visible on imaging, and treating without seeing it means guessing at how advanced the case is.
Cleaning Repeated Only When It Will Work – Scaling reaches a certain depth and no further. Where deposits sit below that, repeated cleanings buy time without stopping the disease. We will tell you when that point has been passed.
Underlying Causes Addressed – Diabetes, smoking, medication and clenching all affect gum health. Treating the gums without accounting for these produces a result that does not hold.
Maintenance Planned From the Start – Treated gum disease stays stable with regular maintenance and relapses without it. The recall interval is set to your case, not to a standard six months.
BENEFITS

Why Gum Disease Should Be Treated Early

Gum disease is progressive and, past a certain stage, only partly reversible. What is saved depends almost entirely on when it is caught.

  • Teeth Stay Firm: Loose teeth are a sign the supporting bone has gone. Treating while the gums are still only inflamed prevents that stage from being reached.
  • Bone Loss Stops: Lost bone does not regenerate on its own. Treatment halts the destruction, which is why the timing determines how much you keep.
  • Bad Breath Resolves: Persistent bad breath that survives brushing and mouthwash usually comes from bacteria below the gum line, and clears once those deposits are removed.
  • Receding Gums Stop Retreating: Recession exposes root surface, which is sensitive and decays more easily than enamel. Halting it early avoids the treatment that exposed roots eventually need.
  • Other Dental Work Lasts: Crowns, bridges and implants all depend on healthy gum and bone. Untreated gum disease undermines restorations that were otherwise sound.
  • General Health Benefits: Chronic gum inflammation is associated with poorer control in diabetes, and the relationship runs in both directions. Treating one helps the other.
TREATMENTS

Gum Treatments We Offer

Scaling and Polishing

Removal of hardened plaque from the tooth surfaces and just below the gum line, for early-stage gum inflammation.

Root Planing

Deep cleaning of the root surfaces below the gum, smoothing them so the gum can reattach. The standard treatment for moderate periodontal disease.

Gum Flap Surgery

Surgical access to clean deposits sitting deeper than instruments can reach through the gum, where scaling alone will not stop the disease.

Laser Gum Treatment

Used in selected cases to treat diseased tissue and assist healing, with less bleeding and discomfort than conventional technique.

Bone Grafting

Rebuilding bone lost to advanced periodontal disease, where the defect is suitable for regeneration.

Crown Lengthening

Reshaping gum and bone to expose more tooth, either to correct a gummy smile or to allow a crown to be fitted properly.

Gum Grafting

Covering exposed root surfaces where recession has advanced, reducing sensitivity and protecting the root.

Bone Grafting

Rebuilding bone lost to advanced periodontal disease, where the defect is suitable for regeneration.

Testimonials

Our Happy Patients

Pranab Kumar Roy
Patient
"My gums had been cleaned several times elsewhere and the bleeding always came back within months. Here they measured the depths, showed me the X-ray and explained why cleaning alone was no longer going to work."
Sharmila Dutta
Patient
"I had been putting up with bad breath for years and had tried everything from the chemist. It turned out to be deposits under the gum. It has not returned since the treatment."
Kaushik Pal
Patient
"One of my lower teeth had started to move slightly. I was told plainly how much bone had already gone and what could still be saved. No exaggeration in either direction."
Everything You Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does gum treatment cost in Dum Dum?
It depends entirely on the stage. A scaling and polishing for early gum inflammation is among the least expensive treatments in dentistry and commonly sits within a few hundred to a couple of thousand rupees. Root planing costs more and is usually charged by quadrant. Flap surgery, grafting and laser treatment are priced per site and sit considerably higher. Nobody can quote accurately before probing the gums and seeing an X-ray, because the depth of the problem is what sets the treatment. You will be given an itemised figure after the assessment.
How do I choose a clinic for gum treatment in Dum Dum?
Ask whether gum depths are measured and charted around every tooth, because treatment decided without that chart is being decided by eye. Ask what qualification the person treating you holds — gums are the periodontist's field. And if you have been given repeated cleanings for the same recurring problem, ask directly whether the disease has moved past the depth that cleaning reaches.
Are bleeding gums serious?
They are the earliest sign of gum disease and should not be ignored. Healthy gums do not bleed when brushed. At this stage the condition is reversible with professional cleaning and better home care. Left for years, it progresses to bone loss, which is not reversible.
Will I lose my teeth?
Not if the disease is caught before significant bone has been lost. Where teeth have already loosened, some can be stabilised and retained while others cannot, and that depends on how much support remains. An honest assessment tells you which of your teeth fall into which category rather than giving one answer for the whole mouth.
Does gum surgery hurt?
The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you feel pressure rather than pain. Soreness and some swelling for a few days afterwards is normal and managed with prescribed medication. You leave with written aftercare instructions.
Will my gums grow back?
Gum tissue lost to recession does not regrow on its own, and bone lost to periodontal disease does not regenerate without intervention. Grafting can cover exposed roots and grafting can rebuild bone in suitable defects. What treatment reliably does is stop further loss, which is why the stage at which you come in matters so much.
