You should always take good care of your gums. After all, this is an important part of dental hygiene. If you fall short, however, Dentoworld can help with Gum Treatments in Colchester.
Healthy gums facilitate a healthy mouth. So, even if your teeth have no problems, you must treat your gums with respect. Neglecting your gums could lead to potentially serious infections or diseases.
Dentoworld
At Dentoworld, we specialise in a wide variety of treatments, including gums. Whether you need repair, damage prevention or just to identify the problem.
Also known as receding gums, Gum Recession is among the most serious forms of gum disease. The gum tissue wears away and the tooth or root becomes more exposed.
Despite being a common problem, Gum Recession happens gradually. This should not be ignored and requires urgent dental treatment.
However, some patients do not realise straight away. In these cases, you may notice that a tooth appears longer. Or, that it has increased sensitivity. If either symptom appears, you must contact Dentoworld straight away.
How might this happen? Harmful bacteria forms due to gaps in the gum line. Without specialist treatment, this could result in permanent damage.
Gum Treatments Colchester
Fortunately, we can treat the infected areas in most cases. This involves deep cleaning.
If you have a more severe case – for instance, excessive loss of bone – this may require gum surgery as an effective solution.
Our extensive gum treatments in Colchester repair the damage.
How Does This Happen?
Gum Disease or poor oral hygiene occurs for a number of reasons. These include:
- Genetics
- Rough Tooth Brushing
- Hormonal Changes – for instance, due to Pregnancy or Puberty
- Poor Oral Hygiene
- Tobacco
- Grinding Teeth
How can you decrease the chances of gum recession? If you smoke, try giving it up. You could also adopt and maintain a healthy diet. Or, keep a vigilant eye out for changes in your mouth.
