Prevent Tooth Loss
Expert Gum Care
Advanced Treatment Options
Periodontal disease is the leading cause of tooth loss worldwide. Fortunately, the best gum disease cure is prevention and early intervention. With ongoing preventative care and professional cleanings, the need for gum treatment is significantly reduced.
Symptoms of Gum Disease
You may need to see a periodontist for gum disease treatment if you’re experiencing signs of:
- Bleeding gums
- Swollen, sensitive gums
- Gum recession
- Spaces between teeth
- “Long teeth”
- Food trapping between teeth
- Halitosis (chronic bad breath)
- Tooth mobility or loss
- Heavy tartar buildup
During your exam, we’ll use diagnostic X-rays and a special tool to measure the attachment levels of your gum and bone tissues around each tooth. Depending on the amount of structural loss or detachment there is, you will fall into a category of healthy gums, gingivitis, or mild, moderate, or severe periodontal disease.
Gingivitis Treatment in Dubai
The first phase of perio disease is gingivitis. Fortunately, gingivitis is fully reversible if caught early enough. Symptoms of minor irritation and redness are common. With good oral hygiene and professional cleanings, most cases of gingivitis can be reversed within two weeks.
Periodontal Therapy
Untreated gingivitis will eventually progress into periodontal disease. At this point, the soft tissues around the teeth become infected and start to detach from the root surfaces. Bone shrinkage soon follows. As a result, deep “pockets” form between the gums and teeth where the detachment has occurred.
The deeper the periodontal pockets become, the more at-risk you are for tooth loss.
Periodontists are gum and bone health experts who can help you save your smile before it’s too late. Through a variety of therapy options, we can combat and heal gum infections and maintain bone integrity to preserve your teeth and bone.
Some Treatment Options
Deep Cleaning
Routine six-month cleanings are meant to prevent the onset of gum disease. But in the instance of heavy tartar buildup and gum pocketing, a series of deep cleanings are the only way to remove the bacteria responsible for the infection. Most deep cleanings are spaced out over two or more appointments since we will numb the affected teeth for optimal comfort.
Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation
Pinhole gum surgery is a cosmetic and soft tissue therapy technique that addresses areas of gum recession. Instead of a graft, the Pinhole technique gently tugs the gum tissues adjacent to the tooth to cover exposed root surfaces.
Laser Dentistry for Gum Disease
Laser dentistry (particularly soft tissue therapy) is an effective add-on for treating periodontal infections. When we combine laser therapy with your deep cleaning procedure, we can further eliminate and reduce the number of infectious bacteria present underneath delicate gum tissues.
Periodontal Maintenance
Once we’ve stabilized your periodontal infection, you’ll want to plan on a maintenance cleaning every 3-4 months to prevent relapse and further bone or tooth loss.
Bone Grafting
If significant bone loss has occurred due to advanced periodontal disease, it may be necessary to place a bone graft to reinforce the root of the adjacent tooth/teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can gum disease affect overall health?
Yes. Research has shown that gum disease may be linked to certain systemic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory problems. Treating gum disease early can help support both oral and overall health.
-
Can gum problems occur even if I brush regularly?
Yes. Even with regular brushing, plaque and tartar can build up in areas that are difficult to reach. Without professional dental cleanings and proper flossing, this buildup can lead to gum inflammation and periodontal disease.
-
How can I maintain healthy gums after gum treatment?
Maintaining healthy gums involves good oral hygiene habits, including brushing twice a day, flossing daily, attending regular dental check-ups, and following any additional care instructions provided by your dentist.
-
Can gum disease return after treatment?
Yes. Gum disease can recur if proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits are not maintained. Consistent care and professional monitoring help keep gums healthy and reduce the risk of the condition returning.
-
How should I treat gum disease?
Work with our Dubai dentists to create a modified oral hygiene plan and series of professional cleanings to remove the bacteria responsible for your gum infection.
-
What causes gingivitis?
Typically, gingivitis is the result of poor oral hygiene. Especially a lack of flossing and brushing along the gums.
-
What is gingivitis?
Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gingiva (gums) around teeth. It is usually caused by bacterial plaque buildup around the teeth.
