Gum Treatment
Periodontal or Gum disease is a condition where the area surrounding the tooth is infected by bacteria caused due to plaque or other pathological entities. It breaks down the supporting tissue below the gum lines, causing swelling and redness with pain. In this case, gum treatment is essential before the damage increases. The process removes any bacteria and plaque to rebuild the supporting tissue around the tooth. The dentist may follow different kinds of approaches depending on the type and severity of the infection.
There are multiple reasons why gum problems can develop. The most common reason for gum disease is attention to lack of oral hygiene, where lack of attention to your oral health can cause gum tissues. Other reasons include cigarettes and alcohol, Ill-fitting bridges and chronic diseases like diabetes may also contribute to the purposes of such problems.

Gum problems are primarily of two forms, Gingivitis and Periodontitis.
Gingivitis is the first condition where bacteria build up in the surrounding area of the teeth. The buildup causes swollen gums and redness, which often leads to bleeding. Maintaining poor oral hygiene is the primary cause of the infection.
If Gingivitis is not treated correctly or ignored in the early stages, it turns to Periodontitis. It is the advanced stage of Gingivitis where infection erodes the supporting structures. In this stage, the gums become loose and lead to severe damage to teeth.
