Quick answer
What is gum surgery in Bavdhan?
Gum surgery covers several procedures that treat deep gum pockets, repair lost tissue or reshape the gums. It is advised only when non-surgical care is not enough. At Hi Smile Dental Clinic in Bavdhan, Pune, Dr. Sagar Borse examines your gums and explains which option, if any, applies.
Gum surgery is a broad term covering periodontal flap procedures, pocket reduction, regenerative procedures, gum grafting and crown lengthening. Each has a different objective and technique.
The page does not imply that one surgical method is appropriate for every gum problem.
Patient guide
Who may need periodontal care in Bavdhan?
Surgery may be considered for persistent deep periodontal pockets, selected bone defects, recession, limited tissue, excess gum tissue or the need to expose sound tooth for restoration.
Plaque control, smoking, medical factors and tooth prognosis influence whether surgery offers a reasonable benefit.
Patient guide
How is a surgical plan made?
The assessment includes periodontal measurements, recession, mobility, tooth condition and indicated radiographs. Previous response to deep cleaning and home care is reviewed.
The clinician defines the surgical site, objective, alternatives and what outcome can realistically be maintained.
Patient guide
When is gum surgery considered after deep cleaning?
Non-surgical care often reduces inflammation and identifies sites that remain difficult to maintain. Persistent deep pockets or complex defects may then be assessed for surgery.
Surgery is not a substitute for ineffective daily plaque control because postoperative stability still depends on maintenance.
Patient guide
What happens during periodontal gum surgery?
After anaesthesia, gum tissue may be lifted to improve access to roots and bone. Diseased deposits are removed and the tissue is repositioned and sutured.
Some procedures reshape tissue or bone, while selected regenerative procedures use grafts, membranes or biologic materials.
Patient guide
How does recovery after gum surgery progress?
Tenderness, swelling, minor bleeding and sensitivity can occur. Cleaning around the site, diet and medicines follow procedure-specific instructions.
Sutures and early healing are checked. The tissue continues to mature after the first review.
Patient guide
What alternatives to gum surgery are available?
Alternatives may include further non-surgical treatment, periodontal maintenance, monitoring, removal of a tooth with poor prognosis or no treatment.
The likely consequences of each option should be explained in relation to the specific site and complete-mouth plan.
Patient guide
How is gum surgery reviewed?
Reviews assess healing, plaque control, tissue position, pocket response and symptoms. Restorative or implant-related steps may wait until periodontal healing is stable.
Long-term periodontal maintenance remains necessary because surgery does not remove future disease risk.
Already have a treatment plan from another dentist?
Bring your X-rays, reports and the plan you were given. Dr. Sagar Borse will go through them with you, explain what they show and what he would check again, and discuss other options for gum surgery.
Informed consent
What are the risks and limits of gum surgery?
Possible effects include pain, swelling, bleeding, infection, recession, sensitivity, food trapping, incomplete improvement and the need for further care.
Regeneration and pocket reduction vary by anatomy, disease pattern, smoking, plaque control and healing response.
Patient guide

Hi Smile Dental Clinic reviews the diagnosis, response to initial care and maintainability of involved teeth. Dr. Sagar Borse can assess general and restorative factors and coordinate periodontist care.

Procedures include pocket surgery, regenerative treatment, gum grafting and crown lengthening, depending on the diagnosis.
Is gum surgery performed under local anaesthesia?
Local anaesthesia is commonly used. Other comfort measures depend on clinical and patient needs.
Can gum surgery regrow all lost bone?
No. Regenerative procedures work only in selected defects and results vary.
Will gums recede after surgery?
Some recession and tooth sensitivity can occur as tissue heals and inflammation reduces.
