Problems of gums resulting in loosening and movement of teeth is a very common problem, especially in our country.
Thankfully, gum problems can be treated. Starting with thorough cleaning (scaling polishing), which may be adjuncted with some medication (topical and systemic). After initial healing period, certain areas may need surgical treatment to remove the infection.
Restoring the lost bone/ tissues is a challenging task, which can be done after initial infection control.
