Gum Infection Boronia

As you know, oral health is the bridge to your overall health and gum is one of the most important and sensitive parts of the oral cavity. Sometimes gums may suffer any minor infection and if this minor infection is not properly treated, it may cause other major oral diseases. Such infections cause pain in the jaw and also result in the loss of teeth. Sometimes gum infection becomes so severe that it becomes a dental emergency and such dental emergencies require immediate dental treatment.

Our dental team in The Smile Clinic offers you a facility for the proper gum treatment and cure of gum infections under the supervision of highly qualified and experienced dentists to maintain your oral health. We provide the best dental care to all our patients to meet their oral health needs.

If not properly cared for and treated, a minor gum infection may lead to two severe infections that are:

• Gingivitis
• Periodontitis

Gingivitis is gum inflammation that is usually caused by the trapping of food in the sulcus that causes bacterial or fungal infections. If one does not take it seriously, it may damage the overall teeth structure and permanent tooth fall. It requires immediate dental treatment to maintain dental health.

It is one of the dental problems that if not properly treated or left untreated, Gingivitis may result in a more severe gum infection called Periodontitis that impacts the attachment of teeth and gum resulting in the breakdown of nearby tissues. Once the tissues get damaged, this may lead to loose teeth and tooth loss.

Though gum infections are not so common, anyhow, keep in mind the following symptoms so that you may prevent sudden damage to your gums:

• Minor or severe pain
• Swelling
• Bleeding
• Pus flow
• Bad breath
• Loose teeth
• Change in the tooth gap

All these factors may show an alarm to your gum health and in case of any above symptoms, must visit our dental clinic.

We have an absolute cure for your gum infection in Boronia. Visit our Boronia dental clinic for a perfect treatment of such problems. Here is the most commonly used method to cure these infections.

Gingivectomy

In this sort of treatment, our professional dentists extract the infected gum tissues to prevent the further invasion of the infection.

Antibiotic Therapy

For minor gum infections, our dentists use antibiotic pills or other medicines, while on the other hand, in case of severe infection, they may inject the antibiotic directly into the infected site via injection.

Flap Surgery

If Gingivitis or Periodontitis are left uncured, it may result in severe damage to your gums. In such a condition, one needs flap surgery that includes bones or tissue grafts.

Root Scaling & Planning

This is the most advanced method of gum treatment in which our dentists deeply clean the infected tissues and debris that is collected between the gums and teeth.

If one takes great care in her/his diet, there are fewer chances of gum infections. Also, you can prevent such infections by taking these preventive measures:

• Daily brushing
• Floss daily
• Use anti-gingivitis mouth wash
• Visit your dentist continually
