Gum surgries can help remove hidden tartar and bacterial habitats which are usually inaccessible to conventional scaling.... Not only will it help resolve the problem but will also prevent further breakdown of support system of your teeth which are gums and jaw bone... I am a periodontist by dental speciality plz feel free to connect regarding treatment..
