Understanding Gum Pain and Its Causes
Gum pain can arise from various sources, including gum disease (gingivitis or periodontitis), infections, hormonal changes, or simply from aggressive brushing. Identifying the cause is crucial to determining the most effective treatment.
Advanced Treatment Options
- Laser Gum Therapy: Utilizing state-of-the-art laser technology, we can treat gum disease and other sources of gum pain with precision and minimal discomfort. Laser therapy is less invasive than traditional surgery, promoting faster healing and less swelling.
- Medicated Rinses and Antibiotics: For bacterial infections causing gum pain, medicated rinses or antibiotics may be prescribed to reduce inflammation and eliminate the infection.
- Scaling and Root Planing: This deep-cleaning procedure removes plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line, addressing the root causes of gum pain associated with gum disease.
Customized Pain Management Strategies
In addition to treating the underlying causes of gum pain, we provide tailored pain management strategies to help alleviate your symptoms quickly. These may include recommendations for over-the-counter pain relievers, special mouth rinses, or changes to your oral hygiene routine.
