Gum treatment in Toronto is the solution for gum disease, which is a very common problem that affects many adults.

  2. If you suspect that you have gum disease, it's important to get that treated immediately. Gum disease is a serious condition that can cause serious problems for your teeth and jawbone if left untreated. Gum disease can lead to tooth loss, damage to the jawbone, and several other conditions such as diabetes and heart disease. What is gum disease? Gum disease is a bacterial infection that affects the gums, bones, and other tissues in the mouth. It can be mild or severe. Most cases are mild, but if left untreated gum disease can cause serious damage to your gums, teeth, and bone. There are two types of gum disease: Periodontitis: The most common type of gum disease where bacteria causes inflammation that leads to tooth loss as well as bad breath Gingivitis: This less severe form is characterized by bleeding gums while brushing your teeth What kinds of gum diseases are there? The most common types of gum disease are periodontitis and gingivitis. Most adults have some form of gum disease. Periodontitis is the loss of bone around teeth and is sometimes called adult periodontal disease. Gingivitis is inflammation of the gums that may be caused by bacteria, smoking, or stress. However, gingivitis does not always result in bone loss or tooth loss. What are treatment options for gum disease? Dental cleaning: A dental cleaning is a procedure to clean your teeth and gums. This can be done by hand or with special tools. It’s usually performed by a dentist or dental hygienist, but some people may choose to do it at home with over-the-counter products that come in the form of toothpaste or mouthwashes. Deep cleaning: This can be done with a scaler, which is a small tool used to remove plaque from beneath your gum line. It’s often performed by dentists or periodontists who have special training in this area of dental care. Periodontal surgery: In extreme cases where deep scaling and root planing have failed to treat gum disease effectively, you may need surgery to restore proper oral health; however, these procedures are reserved for those whose gums are already severely compromised due to the presence of abscesses around their teeth. Periodontal laser surgery: If you have severe periodontal disease that hasn’t responded well after undergoing traditional treatment methods first like scaling & root planing as well as other surgical procedures such as flap surgery etc., then there is another option available – laser therapy! Laser therapy works differently than standard scalings because

  3. instead of physically removing plaque build-ups under the gum line (which causes inflammation), it uses heat produced by high-intensity light rays emitted from lasers which destroy bacteria directly on contact without damaging surrounding tissues as normal scalings do.
