Gum Disease FAQs

- DO RECEDING GUMS GROW BACK?
- WHAT IS THE BEST MOUTHWASH FOR PERIODONTAL DISEASE?
- HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CURE GINGIVITIS?
The cost of gum disease treatment in Australia depends on the severity of your condition, as well as the accreditations of your chosen dentist. Choose a gum dentist in Melbourne that has experience and training in diagnosing and treating gum disease - instead of opting for the cheapest option.
At Toorak Dental Studio, we treat and control the infection to stop it from growing back and are some of Melbourne’s most trusted professionals. We offer a range of flexible payment plans to suit every patient.
Poor oral hygiene and gum disease can cause receding gums - resulting in the delicate root of the tooth being exposed and a tooth that looks longer than it did before. If you don’t treat this in time, it can lead to tooth loss.
Unfortunately, the gum tissue doesn’t regenerate in the same way other tissue around the body does, so receding gums cannot naturally grow back. However, speak to your dentist about gum treatment, as we have advanced procedures to correct the issue and make sure it doesn’t get worse.
The best mouthwash for periodontal disease or gingivitis eliminates the bacteria in your mouth and is sensitive to the gums. Look for alcohol-free mouthwash that is specifically developed to prevent or ease gum disease, and include it in your daily oral hygiene care.
Your dentist at Toorak Dental Studio will provide you with professional advice that’s tailored to your oral health, following gum treatment at our clinic. We will advise on the best mouthwash and toothpaste for your condition.
Gingivitis doesn’t disappear on its own, but with daily care and a good oral hygiene routine, you can treat it before it becomes more serious and progresses into periodontitis. Most people will suffer from gum disease in their lifetime, but luckily, gingivitis can be managed within around two weeks, with the proper care.
Ensure you are brushing, flossing and using an antibacterial mouthwash every day to reverse gingivitis. If symptoms persist, visit us at your earliest convenience.

The stages of gum disease
You may have noticed pain, sensitivity, bleeding, swelling, bad breath, or even abcesses in the mouth. All are common symptoms of gum disease and you should visit a gum dentist in Melbourne as soon as possible. The mildest stage of gum disease, gingivitis, results from the build-up of plaque and is reversible, while periodontitis can lead to irreversible damage of the gums and supporting bony structure. This can cause tooth loss if left untreated.

My day renewing my veneers was a pleasure, the staff were so considerate of my experience with a lovely private room, lunch and pampering that made my day so relaxing. Should have brought my Ugg boots. S. Nicholls2025-05-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thankyou for the wonderful smile results, re-aligning my teeth and replacing my 20 year old bridges with new ceramic porcelain bridges. Throughout the process I was treated with care and kindness by the whole team. Dr Julie had great vision and has created a much improved smile with the technical brilliance of Julianna and assisted brilliantly by Jess, and with the helpful front desk and smiling faces of Bri and Elaine. On the 'whole day appointment' between sessions I was treated to lunch from a local cafe and a lovely massage and pedicure by Dana. Dana was outstanding. Emily also did a great job improving the colour, thankyou. The studio is calming, clean and professional. Whilst the lower teeth continue the invisalign process, I'm thrilled with the outcome of the top and how the smile looks now. I hope I haven't missed anyone, as the whole team were amazing to deal with and everyone I interacted with were kind, friendly, professional and supportive. Highly recommend.

Tim McDermott2025-04-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Gina and her team are very professional and caring. Mina K2025-04-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Julie and her incredible team! From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed and at ease. The atmosphere is warm, professional, and modern, which made me instantly comfortable. Dr. Julie is not only highly skilled but also takes the time to explain everything in detail, which shows her genuine care for her patients.She doesn’t just rush through appointments; she listens, provides options, and works with you to create a plan that’s best for your needs. The staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and make every visit feel personal. Dr Julie is the most Professional Dentist I have seen and met. Emily is also wonderful, She is gentle, thorough, her attention to detail is impressive, and she’s always happy to answer any questions I have. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dentist who combines expertise with compassionate care! Thank you, Dr. Julie and team, for making every visit a great experience! Vivien Leong2025-03-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did my crown with another dentist which he did a very bad job, the dentist who did my crown did not bother to check after or at least be a listener! I went back twice about the pain. He told me it could take sometime to settle, telling me to give it more time. A year later, I still feel the pain whenever I eat?? I gave up and went to another dentist. Now, at Toorak Dental Studio, Dr Julie checked, X-ray, and she found the problem. My crown wasn't "placed" properly, that's a gap between my crown and tooth which is why I have the pain over the year. Anyhow, she fixed my problem within a day. The crown had to be replaced, I don't have to wait for weeks (no temporary crown, the clinic can do a 3D crown within the day). I stop going to my old dentist and I decided to give this new dental clinic a try, I did my 1st hygenic checked which I had a little gum issues, the hygenist was friendly and attend to my problems patiently. I also had some tooths sealing and a tooth filling with Dr Julie recently. I'm like most people, dentist and pain is a nightmare to me, but she did a great job.. Brianna Vaughan2025-03-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My treatment with Dr Julie Ghaly was undoubtedly the most professional, welcoming and painless experience I’ve ever had and her quality of dentistry is exceptional. As someone who’s typically nervous about dental work, I was amazed by how comfortable she made me feel, especially during the numbing process, which was completely painless. Her attention to detail, kindness and expertise truly stand out. I highly recommend Dr. Ghaly to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled dentist! Larissa Wood2025-02-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hands down the most gentle, caring, kind, professional, genuine team out there! Dr Julie is one of a kind - always making time for her patients. The practice is impeccable and all the staff are such a pleasure to be around and nothing is too much. Highly recommend Dr Julie and her team xx jiwon kim2025-02-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am starting my treatment next week. The TMJ issue only became real to me a few years ago. The headaches were accompanied by ear pain and a clicking sound in my jaw. Just one consultation with Dr Julie Ghaly was eye-opening. I am so excited! Margaret Lech2024-12-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Julie! She truly transformed my smile with the most beautiful dental veneers, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first consultation, Dr. Julie made me feel comfortable and confident in the process. Her attention to detail and dedication to perfection are unmatched. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and gave me a smile that looks natural yet absolutely stunning. Not only is she incredibly skilled, but she also has such a warm and caring personality that made every visit a pleasure. If you’re considering veneers or any dental work, I highly recommend Dr. Julie. She is an absolute artist and a true professional. Thank you, Dr. Julie, for giving me a smile I’m proud to show off!
