Model of healthy gums and teeth illustrating gum surgery treatment

Gum surgery treats problems in the gums and the tissues that support your teeth. It is used for gum disease, receding gums and deep pockets that cleaning alone cannot fix.

At Dr Rai's Dental Clinic in Majiwada, Thane West, we begin with a full gum examination and X-rays. We then plan non-surgical and surgical options, choosing the least invasive treatment that works.

Early treatment protects your teeth from loosening and bone loss. If you notice bleeding gums, bad breath or gums pulling away from your teeth, please book a check-up soon.

Gum Surgery FAQs

When is gum surgery needed?

Gum surgery is advised when deep pockets, bone loss or receding gums continue after cleaning treatment. An examination and X-ray confirm this.

What are the signs of gum disease?

Common signs are bleeding, red or swollen gums, bad breath, loose teeth and gums pulling away from the teeth. Early signs are easy to miss, so regular check-ups matter.

Is gum surgery painful?

The area is numbed before surgery, and you may feel pressure during the procedure. Some soreness and swelling afterwards is normal and can be managed with prescribed medicines.

How long does recovery take?

Initial healing takes about one to two weeks, and the gums keep maturing over the following weeks. We advise you on soft foods and cleaning during this time.

Can gum disease be treated without surgery?

Early gum disease often improves with deep cleaning, scaling and good home care. Surgery is for cases that do not respond to those treatments.

What is gum grafting?

Gum grafting covers exposed tooth roots with healthy tissue. It reduces sensitivity and helps prevent further recession.

Can receding gums grow back?

No, gum tissue does not regrow on its own. Treatment can stop further recession and, in suitable cases, cover the exposed roots.

Can gum surgery save loose teeth?

It can help when the loosening is caused by gum disease and enough bone remains. We assess whether the tooth can be saved.

How can I prevent gum problems?

Brush twice a day, floss daily, avoid tobacco and have regular cleanings such as ultrasonic teeth cleaning.

Can I eat normally after gum surgery?

Not at first. Stick to soft, cool foods for several days and avoid hard or spicy food and the treated area while it heals.
