Pyorrhea / Bleeding Gums
Stop gum disease before it costs you your teeth
What is Pyorrhea / Bleeding Gums?
Pyorrhea (periodontitis) is a severe form of gum disease where bacterial infection has spread from the gums into the supporting bone around the teeth. Left untreated, it leads to tooth loss. As a specialist in periodontics, Dr. Barman is uniquely qualified to diagnose and treat all stages of gum disease — from early gingivitis to advanced bone loss — using the most effective non-surgical and surgical methods.
Key Benefits
Stops Disease Progression
Professional treatment halts the advancement of gum disease that home brushing cannot reverse.
Prevents Tooth Loss
Treating periodontitis early dramatically reduces the risk of losing teeth to bone destruction.
Reduces Bleeding & Inflammation
Gums stop bleeding and return to healthy pink colour after professional treatment.
Eliminates Bad Breath
Periodontal bacteria are a primary cause of chronic bad breath; treatment resolves this.
Preserves Bone
Early intervention stops the bone loss that leads to loose and eventually lost teeth.
Systemic Health Benefits
Gum disease is linked to heart disease and diabetes; treating it benefits overall health.
How It Works — Step by Step
Periodontal Assessment
Pocket depth measurement, digital X-rays, and gum health scoring to map the extent of disease.
Oral Hygiene Education
Personalised brushing and interdental cleaning techniques to control bacteria at home.
Deep Scaling & Root Planing
Professional deep cleaning under local anaesthesia removes calculus and bacteria from below the gumline.
Antibiotic Therapy
Local or systemic antibiotics are used to eliminate residual bacteria in deep pockets.
Review & Maintenance
Reassessment after 6–8 weeks to check healing; surgical options discussed if needed.
