FAQs about

Gum disease treatment

How long does periodontal treatment take?

The duration depends on the severity of your condition. Early cases may require just one or two appointments, while more advanced cases might need a series of visits over several months. Dr Vithlani will provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.

Is gum disease treatment painful?

We prioritise your comfort during all periodontal procedures. Local anaesthesia ensures you won't feel pain during treatment, and we offer various options to manage any discomfort afterwards. Many patients are surprised by how comfortable modern periodontal treatment can be.

Can gum disease be cured completely?

While we can effectively treat active gum disease and stop its progression, patients with a history of periodontitis require ongoing maintenance to prevent recurrence. With proper professional care and diligent home maintenance, most patients can maintain healthy gums indefinitely.

Is gum disease hereditary?

There is a genetic component to gum disease susceptibility, so if your parents or siblings have had periodontal problems, you may be at higher risk. However, even with genetic predisposition, effective oral hygiene and regular professional care can prevent or control gum disease.

How can I prevent gum disease?

Effective prevention involves regular professional dental care combined with thorough daily brushing and interdental cleaning (flossing or interdental brushes). Regular visits to our hygienists are particularly important for early detection and prevention.

Will I lose my teeth if I have gum disease?

With prompt, appropriate treatment, most teeth affected by gum disease can be saved. Even in advanced cases, modern periodontal techniques can often preserve teeth that might previously have been considered hopeless.

How quickly will I see improvement after treatment?

Most patients notice reduced bleeding and gum inflammation within a few weeks of initial treatment. Complete healing and tissue reattachment may take several months, particularly in more advanced cases.
