Non-invasive gum treatments are the first step in managing gum disease. Dental scaling deeply cleans below the gumline to remove plaque and bacteria. Sometimes antibiotics support healing. Prime Smile specialises in stopping gum disease early without surgery.
Our nonsurgical options can restore gum health, reduce inflammation, and protect teeth from even more damage. Whether you are seeking bleeding gum treatment or general gum care, we offer long-term plans to maintain strong, healthy teeth and gums.
Prime Smile offers high-end surgical options for the management of gum and periodontal disease. We have qualified oral surgeons and dentists with advanced training to perform specialised treatments that remove infection and restore the gumline. Options include the following:
We only recommend surgical options when gum or periodontal disease has considerably progressed to the point that first-line treatments are no longer effective. Patients can expect a reassuring environment for enhanced treatment and consultations with experienced clinicians.
Gum treatment starts with a detailed consultation. Your dentist checks your gums, takes X-rays to look for bone loss, and reviews your hygiene habits, medical history, and medications. This helps identify the cause and severity of gum disease or recession.
Your dentist explains the best treatment based on your diagnosis. Mild cases may need scaling and medicated gels. Advanced gum disease may require deep cleaning or surgical care. Every plan is personalised to control infection and restore healthy gum tissue.
Basic treatments like scaling may be done the same day. Advanced care such as deep cleaning or surgery is scheduled separately. You’ll receive medication and home-care guidance to reduce swelling, bleeding, and gum inflammation during recovery.
Gum care needs ongoing commitment. Your dentist will schedule follow-ups to track healing and prevent recurrence. With consistent care and proper hygiene, Prime Smile supports your gums until they are stable, healthy, and protected long-term.
Healthy gums start with accurate diagnosis. At Prime Smile, every patient receives a detailed gum assessment using advanced diagnostic tools. We detect early signs of gum disease, infection, or recession and design precise, effective treatment plans.
Successful gum treatment depends on long-term care. Our dentists provide clear aftercare guidance, regular follow-ups, and ongoing support. We focus on stopping disease progression, protecting your results, and helping you maintain healthy gums for years.
Gum recession exposes tooth roots and weakens support. Once lost, gum tissue does not grow back naturally. Prime Smile offers advanced solutions like gum grafting to restore tissue, protect roots, and strengthen your smile with high-end care.

Bleeding gums are typically caused by gum disease. It is one of the earliest warning signs that you have gum disease. We offer comprehensive bleeding gums treatment, including professional cleaning and prescription medications. Bleeding gums should be shown to a dentist without delay for treatment to be successful.
Gum disease can be reversed in its early stages (called gingivitis) with timely dental intervention and proper oral hygiene. However, advanced gum disease (periodontitis) cannot be fully reversed, but it can be controlled to prevent worsening.
If gum disease is not treated, it can progress to periodontitis, a serious and sometimes painful condition with the risk of permanent tooth loss. Untreated gum disease can lead to gum recession, jawbone loss, and eventually tooth loss. Chronic gum inflammation can also affect your heart and blood sugar control.
We treat mild gum recession with dental scaling and deep cleaning. For more advanced cases of gum recession, we offer surgical treatments such as gum grafting and pocket reduction. Call us to learn more about our gum disease treatments.
