The pink tissue
that we see in the mouth surrounding our teeth are called gums. They form a
protective covering around the teeth and also covers the jaw bone. Due to the
intimate contact with the teeth, the infections and the food lodgement in
between teeth leads to problems affecting the gum tissue too.
The severity of
the gum infection varies- from a simple reddening of the tissue it might cause
severe inflammation characterized by pain, swelling, ulceration and even pus
discharge from gums.
The treatment of
the gum problems is also similarly varied- from simple use of local and
systemic antibiotics, to scaling and root planning and even flap surgery with
bone grafting in the most severe cases.
Most of us have
suffered from a gum infection in some time or the other in our life. Infection
of the gums also points to the general medical condition of the body e.g in
diabetes gum infection with pus discharge are common and frequent. In such
cases treatment of the underlying medical condition is also important for
complete relief and resolution of gum infections.
