Gum Diseases (Periodontology)
Gum health is one of the cornerstones of general oral health. Gum diseases are one of the most common causes of tooth loss and can cause serious damage to both teeth and jawbone if left untreated. As Kavi Dental Clinic, we offer solutions to gum problems with modern approaches and effective treatment methods.
Early diagnosis is very important to stop the progression of gum disease. Therefore, it is very important to protect gum health with regular check-ups and to seek appropriate treatment when necessary. In our clinic, we create personalized treatment plans with a periodontist who specializes in gum disease.

Periodontal Diseases
Periodontal diseases are infections that occur when the gums and bone surrounding the teeth become inflamed. They are divided into two main groups: gingivitis (gum inflammation) and periodontitis (advanced gum disease). Initially manifesting itself with mild bleeding and redness, this disease can progress to tooth loss if left untreated.
At Kavi Dental Clinic, periodontal diseases are diagnosed with detailed examinations and radiographic analyses. Depending on the level of the disease, the applied treatment may include tartar cleaning, root surface smoothing (curettage) or advanced surgical procedures. It is possible to keep your teeth and gums healthy with early intervention.
Bleeding Gums
Bleeding gums are a symptom that is usually noticed during brushing and should not be ignored. Bleeding is the earliest and most common indicator of gingivitis. Many factors such as tartar, poor oral hygiene, hormonal changes and systemic diseases can cause this condition.
As Kavi Dental Clinic, we offer effective solutions by detecting the source of bleeding gums. With regular cleaning, correct brushing habits and, if necessary, professional treatment, this problem can be completely eliminated. Bleeding gums are not healthy; it is important to take this symptom seriously and take early precautions.
Dental Tartar Cleaning
Tartar is formed by the hardening of plaque deposits that combine with minerals in saliva and stick to the surface of the teeth over time. Tartar causes both aesthetic problems and is the main cause of gum disease. It is not possible to clean tartar on its own; professional intervention is absolutely necessary.
In our clinic, tartar cleaning is performed painlessly and effectively with ultrasonic devices. After the procedure, plaque accumulation on the teeth decreases and the gums regain their health. You can protect your oral health in the long term by having tartar cleaning done at the recommended periods at Kavi Dental Clinic.
Receding gums
Gum recession is the condition in which the gums move away from the root of the tooth, making the tooth appear longer than it actually is. This condition usually occurs due to gum disease, harsh brushing habits or incorrect flossing. It can lead to tooth sensitivity, aesthetic concerns and tooth loss in the future.
At Kavi Dental Clinic, gum recession treatment is planned according to the cause and severity of the recession. If necessary, the gums are reconstructed with tissue grafts or regenerative surgeries. With early intervention, the progression of gum recession can be stopped and your natural smile can be preserved.
Gummy Smile
Gummy smile is a condition where the gums are more visible than normal when you smile. This condition is usually caused by excessive movement of the upper lip muscles, short teeth or gum growth. This condition, which is aesthetically disturbing for the person, is a treatable problem.
In Kavi Dental Clinic, methods such as laser gum shaping, botox or surgical intervention are preferred in the treatment of gummy smile. With these procedures planned according to the person's facial structure and gum level, a more balanced and aesthetic smile is achieved.
Laser Gum Treatment
Laser technology offers revolutionary innovations in gum treatments. Laser applications, which are performed without bleeding, without stitches and with minimal pain, enable the cleaning of infected tissues and the reshaping of the gums. It provides effective results especially in the treatment of periodontal diseases.
Laser-assisted treatments are used at Kavi Dental Clinic to both facilitate surgical procedures and accelerate the healing process. Thanks to this technique, which is more comfortable than traditional methods, our patients experience the treatment process more comfortably.
