Advanced Gum Treatment & Flap Surgery at People Dental Care

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. When gum infection becomes severe, regular cleaning isn’t enough — deep pockets form around the teeth, causing bleeding, bone loss, bad breath, and mobile teeth. That’s when Flap Surgery becomes the ideal solution.

At People Dental Care, patients from Nizampet, Hydernagar, and Kukatpally often come to us with long-term gum problems and are relieved to know that modern gum surgery is painless, quick, and highly effective in saving natural teeth.

Signs You May Need Gum or Flap Surgery

  1. Persistent bleeding gums
  2. Swollen or reddish gums
  3. Gum recession
  4. Bad breath that doesn’t go away
  5. Loose or shaky teeth
  6. Pus around gums
  7. Deep pockets around teeth

If these symptoms are ignored, bone support around teeth weakens — leading to tooth loss.

What Is Flap Surgery?

Flap surgery is a periodontal treatment where the gum is gently lifted to remove:

  1. Deep tartar buildup
  2. Bacteria/infection
  3. Damaged tissues

Then the gum is placed back tightly to promote healing and reduce pocket depth.

This strengthens the teeth and stops further bone loss.

How We Perform Gum / Flap Surgery at People Dental Care

1. Gum Evaluation & Digital Scans

We assess pocket depth, bone levels, and infection severity. Patients from Miyapur appreciate how clearly we explain each stage.

2. Local Anesthesia

The procedure is completely painless.

3. Lifting the Gum Flap

The infected area is exposed gently.

4. Deep Cleaning & Debridement

All hidden tartar, plaque, and bacterial toxins are removed thoroughly.

5. Smoothing Root Surfaces

This prevents future infection buildup.

6. Suturing the Gum

The gum is positioned tightly to reduce pockets and ensure healing.
