Gingivitis and periodontitis constitute the main focuses of periodontal treatments, which are thus directed to the disease affecting gums. Scaling procedures, root surface debridement, and surgical techniques are available for the prevention of the deterioration of ill health status of the tissue. These treatments avoid situations that lead to tooth loss as a result of undiagnosed gum diseases. Living a healthy lifestyle by attending dental checkups will give one strong teeth as well as a healthy smile.
