Gum Disease Treatment Blackburn
Gum disease ranges from relatively simple gum inflammation to much more serious problems involving the gums and bones of the jaws that can lead to bacterial infection and tooth loss. Rest assured, our dentist in Blackburn, can help manage and treat your gum disease, regardless of its severity or type.
Our Gum Disease Treatment in Blackburn normally takes over 2-4 visits, depending on its severity.
Our management protocol involves:
- Clinical periodontal analysis and recording
- This is a special examination performed as part of the diagnosis and management of periodontal disease. The procedure consists of assessing and recording a patient’s periodontal condition.
- Periodontal debridement
- The mechanical removal of biofilm and calculus from a periodontally diseased tooth to a level consistent with periodontal health.
Following each treatment, it is highly recommended that you follow our home instructions when cleaning and caring for your gums and teeth. Our dentist in Blackburn will review your progress at each subsequent visit to ensure your gum condition is improving. Extreme cases where your gums are not responding to treatment will be referred to specialist periodontists for further management.
