Understanding the service
When should you consult a periodontist in Koramangala?
Persistent gum bleeding, swelling, recession, bad breath, pus, tooth mobility or changes in the bite can warrant periodontal assessment. Some periodontal disease progresses with few obvious symptoms, so the absence of pain does not prove that tooth support is healthy.
A referral may also be useful when routine care has not controlled deep pockets, when gum tissue affects restorative or cosmetic planning, or before selected implant and orthodontic procedures. The periodontist evaluates the whole mouth rather than treating one bleeding site in isolation.
Not every gum concern requires surgery. Diagnosis may lead to improved plaque control, professional cleaning, scaling and root planing, correction of local plaque-retentive factors, risk-factor management, maintenance or monitoring. Surgical options are considered only when the findings and expected benefit justify them.
Recession and gum tissue
The cause, tissue thickness, cleaning trauma, tooth position and sensitivity influence whether grafting is relevant.
Implant and restorative support
Gum health, bone, hygiene access and maintenance affect implants, crowns, bridges and complex rehabilitation.
Individual assessment
What Dr Sanjay assesses during a periodontal consultation
Dr Sanjay connects the patient’s symptoms with measurements around each tooth and the factors that influence inflammation, healing and long-term maintenance.
Periodontal chartingPocket depth, bleeding, attachment levels, recession, furcations, mobility and plaque distribution.
Teeth and local factorsCalculus, decay, restoration margins, crowding, food traps and contacts that make cleaning difficult.
Bone and diagnostic recordsAppropriate radiographs help assess bone levels and patterns of support when clinically indicated.
Health and behaviourDiabetes, tobacco, medicines, dry mouth, stress, home care and previous periodontal treatment.

Informed decisions
Choosing periodontal care in Koramangala
A useful periodontal plan should state the diagnosis, disease extent, modifiable risks and how improvement will be measured. Ask whether active inflammation should be stabilised before crowns, implants, orthodontics or cosmetic work. If surgery is proposed, understand the objective, alternatives, healing expectations and ongoing maintenance. Periodontal stability depends on daily plaque control and professional reviews as well as procedures. Bring previous periodontal charts or dental images when available, and share a complete medicine list. Do not stop a blood thinner or change diabetes medicine without advice from the clinician responsible for it. A second opinion can be reasonable for extensive or irreversible treatment, particularly when the diagnosis or sequence is unclear.
- Ask which measurements show gingivitis, periodontitis, recession or another diagnosis.
- Ask how smoking, diabetes, dry mouth or cleaning access may affect healing and maintenance.
- Ask what signs should prompt an earlier review between planned periodontal visits.
Important: Seek prompt care for rapidly increasing swelling, fever, pus, uncontrolled bleeding, severe pain or sudden mobility after trauma. For breathing or swallowing difficulty, call India’s emergency number 112 or go to the nearest emergency department. Do not use WhatsApp for emergencies.

Questions patients ask
Periodontist FAQs for Koramangala patients
What is a periodontist?
A periodontist is a dentist with specialist training in preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases of the gums and supporting tissues, including implant-related tissue care.
Is bleeding while brushing normal?
It is common but not a healthy endpoint. Persistent bleeding needs assessment of plaque, technique, gums, medicines and other contributors.
Does every deep pocket need surgery?
No. Diagnosis, pocket anatomy, response to non-surgical care and maintainability guide whether surgery is relevant.
Can loose teeth be saved?
Sometimes, depending on remaining support, infection, bite forces, restorability and response to treatment.
Why is maintenance important after gum treatment?
Periodontal disease can recur. Regular monitoring helps identify inflammation, deposits and changes in support early.
Can gum disease affect implant planning?
Yes. Active disease, hygiene access, tissue condition and maintenance capacity should be addressed before implant care.
