Gum or periodontal therapy is a crucial aspect of dental care. It aims to treat and manage periodontal disease, which affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. Depending on the severity, the therapy encompasses a range of treatments, from non-surgical interventions to more advanced surgical procedures.

The primary goal of this treatment is to eliminate infection, halt disease progression, and restore the health of gum tissues and supporting bone structures.
