Gum Disease Treatment

Gum Disease Treatment in Antalya, Turkey

Gum disease is an infection/inflammation of the tissues that support your teeth and can progress from gingivitis to periodontitis if unmanaged. Our periodontal pathway is engineered as a risk-control program: diagnosis → debridement (deep cleaning) → infection control → maintenance governance to protect gum tissue and bone long-term.

Why patients choose Center Dental Clinic for periodontal care

Gum disease treatment is most successful when it follows a deliberate plan built on clinical sequencing + measurable controls, rather than relying on a single, one-time cleaning. Consistent monitoring, targeted therapy steps, and clear benchmarks help ensure lasting improvement.

Evidence-based treatment architecture: The EFP S3 guideline provides a structured, evidence-based approach for treating Stage I–III periodontitis with multiple graded recommendations.
Clear escalation logic: Non-surgical therapy is the foundation; advanced cases may require surgery (e.g., flap/pocket reduction, grafting/regeneration) under specialist governance.
Maintenance as a KPI: Ongoing maintenance is a core requirement to sustain periodontal health after initial therapy.

What is gum disease?

Periodontal (gum) disease is an infection of the tissues that hold teeth in place. It’s typically driven by plaque that hardens into tartar and triggers inflammation; if untreated, it can spread deeper and affect supporting bone, potentially leading to tooth looseness or tooth loss.

Gingivitis vs. Periodontitis (expectation management)

Gingivitis: early-stage gum inflammation; prompt professional care plus daily home care can reverse symptoms and prevent progression.
Periodontitis: more advanced disease with deeper pockets/bone involvement; typically requires deep cleaning (scaling & root planing) and, in advanced cases, surgical options.

Who should consider gum disease treatment?

You should consider evaluation if you have:

Bleeding gums, swelling, pain, or persistent bad breath
Gum recession, sensitivity, or pain while chewing
Noticeable tooth mobility/spacing changes (needs urgent assessment)

When we may route you urgently

Seek urgent dental review if there are very sore/swollen gums, loose teeth, ulcers/red patches, or new lumps in the mouth/lip.

How we diagnose and stage your gum condition

Step 1 — Clinical periodontal assessment

Gum examination + pocket measurements (healthy pockets are typically 1–3 mm; deeper pockets can indicate disease)
Medical/risk review (smoking, diabetes, medications)

Step 2 — Imaging when indicated

X-rays may be used to evaluate teeth/jaw bone status and support staging decisions.

Step 3 — Treatment plan confirmation

We define the treatment sequence: non-surgical therapy first → re-evaluation → escalation if required.

Gum disease treatments (selected by severity)

1) Professional cleaning & homecare enablement (early stages)

Early-stage management includes hygiene instruction and professional cleaning; stopping smoking is frequently advised as part of the plan.

2) Deep cleaning: Scaling & Root Planing (core non-surgical therapy)

Scaling removes tartar/bacteria from tooth surfaces and below the gumline; root planing smooths root surfaces to reduce further buildup and help gums reattach.

3) Infection control adjuncts (case-dependent)

Topical/oral antibiotics may be used to control bacterial infection in certain cases (not a default for everyone).

4) Surgical periodontal therapy (advanced periodontitis)

If disease is advanced, surgical options can include:

Flap (pocket reduction) surgery
Soft tissue grafts, bone grafting, guided tissue regeneration, tissue-stimulating proteins

What is gum disease?

It’s an infection/inflammation of the tissues that hold teeth in place; untreated disease can progress and cause tooth looseness or tooth loss.

What’s the difference between gingivitis and periodontitis?

Gingivitis is early-stage inflammation and can often be reversed with prompt care; periodontitis is more advanced and may require deep cleaning and sometimes surgery.

What are the warning signs?

Bleeding gums, swelling, pain, bad breath, recession, and loose teeth are common triggers for assessment.

Is bleeding when brushing normal?

It’s a common sign that your gums may be inflamed and should be evaluated.

What is “deep cleaning” under the gums?

Deep cleaning commonly refers to scaling and root planing, which removes tartar/bacteria below the gumline and smooths root surfaces.

Do antibiotics cure gum disease?

Antibiotics can help control bacterial infection in selected cases, but core therapy typically includes debridement and long-term maintenance.
