Understanding Periodontitis

Periodontitis is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and destroys the bone that supports your teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and other complications.

Signs and Symptoms

  • Bleeding gums
  • Swollen or tender gums
  • Loose teeth
  • Receding gums

Treatment Options

At Teeth at Tiong Bahru, our expert dentists offer a range of advanced treatment options to address periodontitis effectively:

1. Scaling and Root Planing

This deep cleaning procedure removes plaque and tartar from the teeth and root surfaces to promote healing and prevent further progression of the disease.

2. Antibiotics

Antibiotics may be prescribed to control bacterial infections and reduce inflammation in the gums.

3. Surgery

In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to repair damaged tissues and regenerate bone loss caused by periodontitis.
