Gum treatment covers the assessment and treatment of gum inflammation, bleeding, swelling, or recession.
Evaluation can range from early-stage gum inflammation (gingivitis) to more advanced periodontal conditions of varying severity.
The treatment method applied is determined after examination, based on the condition of the gums and surrounding tissue.
Suitability for all treatments above is determined after an in-person examination and clinical assessment.

Why isn't pricing listed on the website?
Turkey's Ministry of Health advertising regulations prohibit healthcare providers from advertising prices or promotions. In addition, the amount of material and number of sessions needed vary by person, so a single figure would be misleading. Information specific to you is shared directly after an examination.
