At Alefiya Dental Care, we understand the importance of healthy gums for overall oral well-being. We specialises in the treatment of various gum problems, including gingivitis and periodontitis. Through personalized treatment plans, we aim to restore gum health, eliminate infection, and prevent further damage. With a combination of non-surgical and surgical approaches, we provide comprehensive care to address gum problems and promote a healthy smile. Healthy gums are the foundation of a beautiful smile and optimal oral health.
Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease characterized by inflammation and bleeding gums. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more severe form of gum disease that can lead to tooth loss and other oral health complications. We are skilled in identifying the signs of gum disease and designing personalized treatment plans to combat the infection and restore gum health.
The treatment of gum problems typically involves a combination of non-surgical and surgical approaches, depending on the severity of the condition. In the case of mild to moderate gum disease, non-surgical treatments such as professional dental cleaning, scaling, and root planing may be recommended. These procedures aim to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria from the gumline and tooth roots, promoting gum healing and preventing further damage.
For advanced cases of gum disease, we may recommend surgical interventions such as gum flap surgery or laser therapy. These procedures target deep pockets of infection, remove diseased tissue, and promote gum reattachment. We utilize modern techniques and technologies to ensure precise and effective treatment while prioritizing patient comfort and safety.
In addition to treating gum disease, we also provide guidance on proper oral hygiene practices and preventive measures to maintain healthy gums in the long term. We will educate you on the importance of regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental cleanings to prevent the recurrence of gum problems.

Explore our frequently asked questions to find answers to common inquiries about our dental services, treatments, and patient care. We've compiled this helpful resource to provide you with valuable information and address any concerns you may have.
01.What should I do in case of a dental emergency?
If you are experiencing a dental emergency, such as severe tooth pain or a knocked-out tooth, it's crucial to contact our office immediately. We prioritize dental emergencies and will provide you with prompt care and guidance.
02.Whats are Dental Implants?
The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts which are inserted into the jawbone where teeth are missing. These metal anchors act as tooth root substitutes. They are surgically placed into the jawbone. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. Small posts which protrude through the gums are then attached to the implants. These posts provide stable anchors for your General Dentist to reconstruct your bite with artificial replacement teeth. If you have a denture, it can be connected to implants to improve stability and function. Implants also help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.
03.What options do I have for replacing missing teeth?
We provide several options for replacing missing teeth, including dental implants, bridges, and dentures. Each option has its own benefits and considerations, and we will guide you in choosing the best solution based on your specific needs and oral health condition.
04.How long does a smile makeover procedure usually take?
The duration of a smile makeover depends on the complexity of the case and the treatments involved. While some cases may require multiple visits over several weeks, others can be completed in a shorter timeframe. During your consultation, we will discuss the anticipated timeline for your specific smile makeover plan.
05.Are invisible aligners a suitable option for correcting misaligned teeth?
Yes, invisible aligners are an excellent option for correcting mild to moderate teeth misalignment. These clear, removable aligners gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions without the need for traditional braces. We will evaluate your teeth and provide a personalized treatment plan based on your alignment needs.
06.How can I maintain good oral health and prevent dental problems?
To maintain good oral health, it's essential to practice proper oral hygiene, including brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and scheduling regular dental check-ups. Additionally, following a balanced diet, limiting sugary foods and drinks, and avoiding tobacco use can significantly contribute to your oral health.
07.Does dental treatment cause pain?
Our priority is to ensure your comfort throughout any dental treatment. We utilize advanced techniques and modern anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Most procedures are virtually painless, and we take every measure to create a relaxed and gentle environment for our patients. We will address any concerns you may have and ensure that you feel comfortable and at ease during your dental visit.
