What to do if there is a gap after calculus removal

Most of the gaps after calculus removal are caused by gum recession, tooth deformation, etc. Conservative treatment, orthodontics, surgical treatment, etc. can be carried out according to the severity.
1. Conservative treatment: For patients with small gaps that have little impact on function and aesthetics, there is no need for special treatment, as they should keep cleaning their teeth every day to avoid food residues, as well as regular professional periodontal maintenance.
2. Orthodontics: If the gap is caused by deformation of teeth due to dental calculus, orthodontic treatment is needed to make the teeth return to the original position by wearing braces, so as to improve and restore the normal occlusion. Patients with severe periodontitis need to be cautious.
3. Surgical treatment: patients with large gaps that have a serious impact on function and aesthetics need to undergo crown restoration, bone grafting, gum grafting surgery.
After the removal of calculus there is a gap according to the size of the gap, teeth, etc. to determine a reasonable program, in order to effectively improve. It is recommended to visit the clinic for examination to formulate a treatment plan.
