What Is Gum Surgery?

Gum surgery (also known as periodontal surgery) is a specialized procedure that treats advanced periodontitis — a severe form of gum disease that affects the tissue and bone supporting your teeth.

It’s necessary when:

  • Deep pockets have formed between teeth and gums

  • Non-surgical treatments (like deep cleanings) are no longer effective

  • Gum recession exposes tooth roots

  • There is significant bone or tissue loss around the teeth

By addressing infection directly and rebuilding healthy tissue, gum surgery helps prevent tooth loss and improves both oral function and aesthetics.

What to Expect During Gum Surgery

1

Evaluation and Planning

We begin with a detailed periodontal evaluation, using digital imaging and pocket depth analysis to determine the extent of damage. A personalized treatment plan is then created to target infection and restore your gum health.

2

Cleaning and Infection Removal

During surgery, the gum tissue is gently lifted to access the roots of the teeth and surrounding bone. Plaque, tartar, and infected tissue are removed thoroughly to stop the spread of bacteria.

3

Tissue and Bone Regeneration

Depending on your needs, we may perform gum grafting, bone grafting, or guided tissue regeneration to rebuild lost structure. These advanced techniques encourage natural healing and help the gums reattach firmly to the teeth.

4

Healing and Maintenance

After the procedure, the gums are repositioned and sutured to promote proper healing. With our detailed aftercare instructions and regular maintenance visits, most patients recover comfortably and achieve lasting improvements in gum health.

Signs You Might Need Gum Surgery

Recognizing the early signs of gum problems can help prevent more serious complications. You may need gum surgery if you experience any of the following:

  • Persistent bleeding or swollen gums

  • Receding gums that make teeth appear longer

  • Loose or shifting teeth

  • Bad breath or a bad taste that doesn’t go away

  • Deep pockets forming between teeth and gums

  • Pain or sensitivity when chewing or brushing

If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s important to seek evaluation as soon as possible. Early intervention at Zara Dental can help restore your gum health and protect your natural teeth before the condition worsens.
