Rarely (for example in case of periodontitis or dental cyst) the treatment of teeth include the surgery. Dental cyst if it is in the interior of gum (a spreaded case) is operated with special dental scalpel with local or general anaesthesia.

The periodontitis is not a disease just of gums but it is complex affection of gums’and teeth’ tissues. Because of that, often, the treatment of these diseases supose the surgery of gums and teeth.

One of the first symptoms of gums’ diseases is the bleeding of gums. We can supose that the bleeding is provoked by incorrect cleaning of teeth, it means the scrap of gums’ tissue with rough tooth brush.
