GUM (Periodontal) Treatments
It isn’t always the teeth which gives you trouble, it could be your GUM too…
Gums are essential to our overall oral health as they support and hold our teeth in place. When proper gum care is neglected it causes periodontal disease, an infection of the gums caused by bacteria. If left untreated, this can also result in tooth loss.
Causes of Gum disease
- Chronic medical conditions
- Plaque
- Bad-fitting fixed bridge or Worn teeth fillings
- Family History
- Poor Oral Hygiene
- Hormonal Changes
Apart from the routine gum disease treatments in Sharjah, we also provide cosmetic gum treatments like GUM Reshaping and GUM bleaching.
Gummy Smile Treatment / Gum Reshaping
Periodontists use modern periodontal “plastic surgery” techniques to improve gummy smiles, correct uneven gum lines and lengthen teeth that appear small. These procedures previously required surgery with lots of discomfort and a long post-operative healing, but not when using dental Lasers.
GUM Bleaching or whitening
Gum depigmentation is ideal for people who have dark gums. With advanced lasers this can be treated to become bright pink in one single visit at Rekha’s.
