Gum disease treatment in Makati
Bleeding, swollen or receding gums deserve attention. Dr. KC Robles provides gum care at Dr. KC Dental Aesthetic Center on Chino Roces Avenue in Makati City.
When to have your gums checked
Gum disease affects the tissues that support your teeth. Warning signs include repeated bleeding, swelling, persistent bad breath or gums pulling away from the teeth. Symptoms alone cannot show how advanced the problem is.
- Gums that bleed when you brush or clean between teeth
- Red, swollen or tender gums
- Receding gums or teeth that feel loose
- Bad breath that keeps coming back
What the assessment looks at
A gum assessment checks inflammation and the spaces around your teeth. Your dentist may use X-rays to look for supporting bone loss and ask about smoking, diabetes, medicines and earlier treatment.
Dr. KC focuses on periodontics, with further training in periodontics and implantology at Centro Escolar University. Tell her when you first noticed changes and whether you have had deep cleaning or gum procedures before.
Treatment depends on the findings
Early gum inflammation may be managed with professional cleaning and improved daily care. More advanced disease may need cleaning below the gum line and further treatment. Some cases require gum procedures.
At your visit, ask which areas need attention, how treatment will be divided into appointments and how progress will be checked. The goal and the next steps should be clear before you start.
Keeping up with gum care
Daily brushing, cleaning between teeth and regular dental care support gum health. Follow-up appointments help your dentist check the response to treatment and adjust your care.
If you are considering implants or cosmetic dental work, discuss your gums first. Healthy supporting tissues are part of planning other dental treatments.
Cost and planning
Fees depend on the assessment, the areas affected and the treatment recommended. A routine cleaning and treatment for established gum disease are different procedures. Ask which visits and follow-up checks are included in your plan.
Common questions
Is deep cleaning the same as a regular cleaning?
Deep cleaning treats deposits below the gum line when indicated. Your dentist will explain whether routine cleaning or periodontal treatment is needed after examining your gums.
Should I stop brushing if my gums bleed?
Keep cleaning gently and arrange a dental assessment for repeated bleeding. Your dentist can show you a suitable brushing and interdental cleaning technique.
