Gum Care & Periodontal Treatment
Stop bleeding gums and gum infections early
Swollen, bleeding gums or shaky teeth are often signs of gum disease. At Spark Dental Care, we offer stepwise gum therapy to control infection, clean deep pockets and rebuild lost support where possible.
When do you need professional gum treatment?
Early gum problems can often be reversed with thorough cleaning and home care. Advanced cases need deeper procedures to stop further bone loss.
- • Bleeding when you brush or floss
- • Persistent bad breath or bad taste
- • Gums looking puffy, dark or pulled away from teeth
- • Teeth feeling loose, or gaps appearing between them
Gum treatment options at Spark Dental Care
Full-mouth gum cleaning (FMOP)
A detailed cleaning of all teeth and gum pockets using ultrasonic instruments to remove hard tartar, plaque and bacterial deposits below the gumline.
Curettage & root surface debridement
Gentle scraping of the infected soft tissue lining inside gum pockets, combined with smoothing of the root surface so that gums can reattach more firmly.
Gum flap procedures
For deep pockets, a small flap of gum is lifted to allow direct access for thorough cleaning and reshaping of the underlying bone, then sutured back for easier maintenance.
Gum & bone grafting
Where there is localised loss of support, grafts may be used to rebuild bone or thicken thin gums around important teeth, improving both health and appearance.
