Gum Disease FAQs

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.
