GINGIVAL DISEASES
Advanced Gum Health, Soft-Tissue Aesthetics & Periodontal Stability
Healthy gums form the biological foundation of every beautiful and long-lasting smile. At Dental Design Turkey, our gingival treatments focus on eliminating inflammation, restoring soft-tissue health, and designing an ideal gum architecture that supports crowns, veneers, implants, and natural teeth.
1.SCALING
Professional Ultrasonic Tartar Removal
Scaling removes hardened tartar (calculus) that accumulates above and below the gumline and cannot be eliminated through daily brushing. Removing these deposits stops bacterial progression and prevents early gum disease.
What Scaling Treats
✔ Gingival inflammation
✔ Bleeding gums
✔ Early-stage gum disease
✔ Bad breath linked to plaque buildup
✔ Tartar accumulation around crowns & bridges
Procedure Steps
- Gum Health Evaluation
Clinical examination to assess gum pockets, bleeding, and tartar levels. - Ultrasonic Scaling
High-frequency ultrasonic tips break down tartar without damaging the enamel. - Manual Fine Scaling
Periodontal curettes remove smaller deposits for complete cleaning. - Antibacterial Rinse / Airflow (if required)
Reduces bacterial load and freshens oral environment.
Result
Cleaner teeth, reduced inflammation, and improved gum stability.
2.POLISHING
Stain Removal & High-Gloss Surface Finishing
Polishing eliminates surface stains caused by tea, wine, coffee, and smoking, while smoothing enamel surfaces to prevent plaque from reattaching easily.
What Polishing Improves
✔ Surface stains
✔ Rough enamel texture
✔ Early plaque buildup
✔ Post-scaling finish
Procedure Steps
- Surface Inspection & Stain Mapping
- Abrasive Polishing Paste Application
- Rotary Brush / Rubber Cup Polishing
- Final Shine & Fluoride Application (optional)
Result
A brighter, smoother, and cleaner smile that stays fresh longer.
3. DEEP CLEANING / ROOT PLANING
Periodontal Therapy for Moderate to Advanced Gum Disease
When gum disease progresses, bacteria settle deep beneath the gumline and begin damaging the bone. Deep cleaning removes harmful deposits from periodontal pockets and smooths the root to support gum reattachment.
Best For Patients With:
✔ Pocket depths deeper than 4–5 mm
✔ Bone loss visible on X-ray
✔ Persistent bleeding & swelling
✔ Periodontal mobility risk
✔ Chronic inflammation
Procedure Steps
- Periodontal Pocket Measurement + CBCT/X-Ray
- Local Anesthesia for Comfort
- Deep Ultrasonic Cleaning Below the Gumline
- Root Planing (Root Smoothing)
- Antibacterial Therapy (if required)
Gel, rinse, or laser-assisted sterilization. - Healing Evaluation After 2–3 Weeks
Result
Reduced pocket depths, improved gum stability, healthier soft tissue, and long-term periodontal preservation.
4. GUM CONTOURING (GINGIVAL RESHAPING)
Aesthetic Soft-Tissue Sculpting for a Harmonious Smile Line
Gum contouring reshapes excessive or uneven gum levels to create ideal proportions between teeth and gums. This improves not only gum health but also smile aesthetics, especially before veneers or crowns.
Ideal For:
✔ Gummy smile correction
✔ Uneven gum margins
✔ Short or square-shaped teeth
✔ Asymmetrical smile line
Procedure Steps
- Digital Smile & Gingival Analysis
Mapping gum levels, symmetry, and tooth exposure. - Local Anesthesia for Complete Comfort
- Precise Gingival Reshaping
Using minimally invasive soft-tissue sculpting. - Immediate Shaping & Proportion Control
Smile checked from all angles for symmetry. - Healing Phase: 5–10 Days
Mild sensitivity is normal; tissue stabilizes quickly.
Result
Balanced gum contours, improved tooth proportions, and a naturally enhanced smile line.
