Gum Treatment

Gum Treatment is a specialized dental procedure that focuses on preventing, controlling, and treating gum diseases.

Healthy gums are the foundation of healthy teeth, and ignoring gum problems can lead to tooth loss, bad breath, and even affect your overall health.

At Risus Multi Speciality Dental Clinic, Kalyan, our MDS Periodontists specialize in advanced gum care — from simple cleaning to complex surgeries — ensuring your gums remain healthy and strong.

Why Gum Treatment is Important?

Many people ignore early gum problems thinking they are minor. However, gum disease is progressive and can worsen if left untreated.

Benefits of professional gum treatment include:

  • Stops gum bleeding and swelling

  • Prevents tooth mobility and loss

  • Reduces risk of bad breath and infection

  • Restores gum health and strengthens teeth support

  • Improves overall oral hygiene and confidence
