Gum treatment at Life Dental Clinic (LDC) is a comprehensive approach to addressing inflammation, bleeding, bad breath, and tooth mobility, as well as preventing periodontitis and tooth loss. This service combines professional hygiene, modern periodontal treatment methods, and personalised home care recommendations.
What is Gum Treatment
Gum treatment involves a series of procedures aimed at restoring the health of the periodontal tissues (gums, ligaments, bone), eliminating inflammation, and preserving teeth. At Life Dental Clinic (LDC), treatment begins with diagnostics: an examination, assessment of periodontal pocket depth, and X-ray or CT scans if indicated.
Key Symptoms of Gum Problems
- Bleeding during brushing or while eating.
- Swelling, redness, itching, or discomfort in the gum area.
- Unpleasant breath or taste in the mouth.
- Exposed tooth necks, visually “elongated” teeth, sensitivity to hot or cold.
Stages of Gum Treatment at LDC
At Life Dental Clinic, treatment is carried out in stages to ensure predictable and lasting results. Each therapy plan is tailored to the patient’s condition, any coexisting conditions, and level of oral hygiene.
Diagnostic and Hygiene Stage
- Professional teeth cleaning: removal of plaque and tartar, polishing of surfaces.
- If necessary — deep treatment of periodontal pockets (scaling, closed curettage, mechanical methods).
- Prescription of antiseptic mouthwashes, therapeutic gels, and adjustment of home care routine.
Periodontal and Restorative Therapy
- Conservative treatment of gingivitis and early periodontitis (local anti-inflammatory therapy, medications).
- Modern mechanical methods (e.g., ultrasonic systems like Vector, plasma therapy) for deep cleaning and healing stimulation.
- For gum recession — gum grafting, soft tissue transplants, bite adjustment, and correction of harmful habits.
Gum Treatment Methods
At LDC, both traditional and innovative treatment methods are used to ensure maximum comfort and aesthetic results. The choice of method depends on the diagnosis, severity of the condition, patient age, and other contributing factors.
Main Therapy Methods
- Professional hygiene (ultrasound, Air-Flow, manual instruments).
- Medication therapy: antiseptic solutions, gels, anti-inflammatory agents, antibiotics if indicated.
- Mechanical methods (Vector therapy, physiotherapy to improve circulation and regeneration).
- Surgical interventions: pocket curettage, gum grafting, splinting of mobile teeth.

After gum treatment at Life Dental Clinic, great attention is given to prevention, to maintain results for as long as possible. Patients receive clear guidance on home care and schedules for follow-up visits.

- Brush your teeth twice a day with a properly chosen toothbrush and toothpaste, and use floss and a water flosser.
