Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. At Coaldent, Velachery we provide expert gum care and periodontal treatment to diagnose and treat all stages of gum disease, helping you keep your natural teeth for life.

What Is Gum Care and Periodontal Treatment?

Gum disease is one of the most common dental conditions and one of the most overlooked. It starts as gingivitis, causing redness and bleeding, and can progress to periodontitis where the bone supporting your teeth begins to break down. Left untreated it leads to tooth loss.

At Coaldent our specialist provides thorough assessment and treatment of all stages of gum disease. From deep cleaning and root planing to ongoing maintenance, we give your gums the care they need to stay healthy long term.

How Your Gum Treatment Works

01.

Gum Assessment

We measure your gum pockets, check for bleeding points and take X-rays to assess the extent of any bone loss and determine the stage of gum disease.

02.

Diagnosis

We explain your diagnosis clearly and outline a treatment plan appropriate for your stage of gum disease. You understand everything before we begin.

03.

Scaling and Root Planing

A deep clean is carried out to remove tartar and bacteria from below the gumline. Root surfaces are smoothed to discourage future bacterial attachment.

04.

Review and Reassessment

After an appropriate healing period we reassess your gum pockets and response to treatment to determine whether further intervention is needed.

05.

Ongoing Maintenance

A personalised maintenance schedule is put in place with more frequent cleaning visits to keep your gum disease under control long term.

06.

Home Care Guidance

We provide detailed, personalised advice on brushing, interdental cleaning and lifestyle factors to support your gum health between visits.

FAQs

Common signs include bleeding gums when brushing, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth and sensitivity. If you notice any of these, early treatment prevents the condition from progressing further.

Early stage gum disease, known as gingivitis, is completely reversible with professional treatment and improved home care. Advanced periodontitis can be managed and stabilised but the bone loss that occurs cannot be fully reversed.

Deep cleaning is carried out under local anaesthesia where needed. Most patients experience only mild soreness for a day or two afterwards. The discomfort is far less than most people expect.

Yes. Advanced gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. Early diagnosis and consistent treatment significantly reduces this risk and helps preserve your natural teeth for as long as possible.

Patients with a history of gum disease typically benefit from a professional clean every 3 to 4 months rather than the standard six months. We advise the right frequency based on your individual response to treatment.

My gums had been bleeding for over a year and I kept putting off treatment. After the deep cleaning at Coaldent the bleeding stopped completely within two weeks. The doctor explained everything so clearly. Wish I had come sooner.

I was diagnosed with moderate periodontitis and was worried about losing teeth. The treatment plan at Coaldent was thorough and the results after three months were remarkable. My gums are stable and I feel so much more confident about my oral health.

I come every four months for my gum maintenance visits now. The team at Coaldent always do a thorough job and monitor my progress carefully. My periodontist elsewhere said my gums look the healthiest they have in years.
