Treatment
Curing gum disease can be surgical and non-surgical.
In surgical action, the dentist will try to stop the spread of the infection before the surgery takes place. After taking out the infection, the patient will have to return once in a while to maintain the health of the mouth to prevent such disease from occurring.
