Understanding Gum Disease: From Gingivitis to Periodontitis
Gum disease, also referred to as periodontal disease, begins with plaque accumulation, a bacterial film that will inflame the gums (gingivitis) and, without treatment, develop into destruction of the supporting bone (periodontitis).
Symptoms may include:
- Bleeding, red, or swollen gums
- Bad breath or constant bad taste
- Gum recession or pockets between teeth
- Loose or moving teeth
How Marvi Dental Care Treats Gum Disease?
1. Comprehensive Diagnosis
Our process begins with a complete assessment, clinical examination, probing of gum pockets, and imaging if needed, to identify the status of gum disease and create an individualized treatment plan.
2. Professional Cleaning & Prophylaxis
For mild cases or gingivitis, we start with regular cleaning to eliminate plaque and tartar on and below the gum line, usually enough to reverse early gum disease.
3. Scaling & Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
If deeper pockets and bacterial deposits are found, we do scaling and root planing, a non-surgical deep-cleaning process under local anesthesia. This eliminates tartar below the gum line and smoothes root surfaces to enable the gums to reattach correctly.
4. Advanced Non-Surgical & Surgical Options
For moderate to advanced periodontitis, treatment can involve:
- Pocket reduction surgery (flap surgery) to eliminate hardened deposits and decrease gum pocket depths
- Gum grafting to replant lost tissue and cover exposed roots
- Bone grafting or guided tissue regeneration to restore bone and gum support
These treatments seek to stop disease progression and save your natural teeth whenever possible.
5. Maintenance & Follow‑Up
Following initial treatment, ongoing periodontal maintenance every 3 to 4 months is necessary to avoid recurrence and track healing. Success over the long term also hinges on rigorous daily oral hygiene.

FAQs
- How do I know if I require scaling and root planing?
If your gums are bleeding on brushing, swollen or tender, or you have been informed you have gum pockets wider than 3 mm deep, scaling and root planing will be needed. Marvi’s assessment will validate it.
- Will the deep cleaning be painful?
Not at all! We use local anesthesia so that you can be comfortable during the procedure. After-treatment sensitivity is mild and only lasts for a few days. Patients often compliment Dr. Marvi on his gentle and gentle touch.
- How frequently do I need to return after treatment?
Normally, every 3 to 4 months, for maintenance cleanings and check-ups, this prevents gum disease from coming back and allows us to track continued healing.
