Gum treatment encompasses a range of procedures designed to treat gum disease (periodontal disease) and restore gum health. The most common starting point is deep cleaning, also called scaling and root planing, which removes tartar and bacteria from below the gum line and smooths the tooth roots to help gums reattach to the teeth. For more advanced cases, surgical options may be needed. Gum grafting takes tissue from the roof of the mouth (or uses donor tissue) to cover exposed tooth roots caused by gum recession. Gingivectomy removes excess or diseased gum tissue to reduce pocket depths where bacteria collect. Flap surgery lifts the gums to access and clean deep tartar deposits, then repositions them snugly around the teeth. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy mouth. Untreated gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults and has been linked to heart disease, diabetes complications, and other systemic health issues. Treatment abroad often appeals to patients who need extensive work that would require multiple costly appointments at home.
Duration
1-2 hours for deep cleaning; surgical procedures 1-3 hours
Stay Required
3-5 days (up to 7 for surgical procedures)
Visits
1 visit (1-3 appointments depending on treatment scope)
Materials
Ultrasonic scalers (EMS, Cavitron), Hand curettes (Gracey, Hu-Friedy), Collagen membranes (for grafting)

Yes. Budapest is a well-established dental tourism destination. MyDentalFly only lists verified clinics with international accreditations. The same implant brands and materials used in the UK are available at partner clinics.
You'll typically need to stay 3-5 days (up to 7 for surgical procedures) in Budapest. Most treatments can be completed in a single trip.
A regular cleaning removes plaque and tartar above the gum line. Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) goes below the gum line to remove bacteria and tartar from the tooth roots, treating the underlying gum disease.
Local anaesthetic is used, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some tenderness and sensitivity for a few days afterwards is normal. Over-the-counter painkillers are usually sufficient.
Early gum disease (gingivitis) is fully reversible with proper treatment and hygiene. Advanced periodontitis can be managed and controlled but not completely reversed. The goal is to stop progression and maintain what you have.
Hungary has been a dental tourism destination since the 1980s, originally serving Austrian and German patients. Budapest now treats over 100,000 international dental patients annually. The combination of highly trained dentists, EU regulation, and prices 50-70% lower than Western Europe created this reputation.
Budapest offers EU regulatory standards and proximity to the UK (2.5-hour flight), making follow-up visits straightforward. Turkey generally offers lower prices, especially for large-scale work like full-mouth restorations. Both destinations have excellent clinics — the best choice depends on your treatment needs and preferences.
