1. Can gum disease be reversed?

Gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease, can be reversed with professional cleanings and good oral hygiene. Advanced stages require more intensive treatment.

2. Is gum disease painful?

Early stages are usually painless, but advanced gum disease can cause discomfort, sensitivity, and tooth pain.

3. How often should I visit the dentist for gum disease prevention?

We recommend biannual check-ups for prevention or more frequent visits if you have gum disease.

Yes. Gum disease is linked to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory issues. Treating gum disease can improve overall health.

5. What are deep cleanings, and are they necessary?

Deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) remove plaque and tartar below the gumline, essential for managing gum disease.

6. Is gum surgery the only option for advanced periodontitis?

Surgery is sometimes necessary, but advanced non-surgical therapies, such as laser treatments, may also be effective.

7. Are there risks of gum disease during pregnancy?

Yes. Pregnancy hormones can increase the risk of gingivitis. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular check-ups are crucial.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

I have been travelling to India from the UK for the past 15 years and learnt of Dr Shetty’s dental surgery 18 months ago from a very good business contact in Mumbai. Experienced dental treatment, friendly smiling faces, No waiting list, and most of all ” No Pain. ” Needless to say i have now abandoned my UK Dentist !!!!!

Stephen Samuels (U.K.)

Like most, for me a visit to the dentist was not looked forward to. Being introduced to Dr. Shetty has completely changed my outlook on dentistry. Albeit my UK dentist is has a friendly manner and sate of the art practice, I rarely visit unless in an emergency. After attending my first appointment with Dr. Shetty for a filling, I eagerly returned 6 months later for a route canal and my first cosmetic work. Living in London, my visits to Mumbai will always take in an appointment or two at the dentist. I look forward to having more improvements done to correct years of neglect! Dr Shetty is definitely my preferred
