About Dental Bleeding

Dental bleeding, often referred to as gingival bleeding or bleeding gums, is not a standalone procedure but a common symptom addressed during dental surgery. It typically indicates underlying inflammation or disease, such as gingivitis or periodontitis. The surgical management involves procedures like scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), gingivectomy (removal of diseased gum tissue), or flap surgery to access and clean tooth roots. The primary goal is to eliminate the source of infection, reduce inflammation, and restore gum health to stop the bleeding and prevent further bone and tissue loss. This intervention is crucial for maintaining oral health and preventing the progression to more severe dental issues.
