I have gum problems. It burns which I eat spicy food or chillies. Of late, it bleeds with I brush. Gums and teeth pain with I eat hard food. Consulted dentist. He cleaned the teeth - that is scaling. Now he is advising me to get curretage through laser. He says gums are infected with bacteria and I should go through laser treatment. What to do? Is there any alternate treatment?

Hi, It is good that you have got scaling done. However further treatment may be required. Lasers are latest gadgets to treat the condition which you are suffering from. However lasers are not the only option. There are conventional methods of curettage, which will be equally effective. You can opt for an conventional curettage if you are not ready for laser curettage. Regards Dr. Avinash bs

Burning sensation while eating hot and spicy food indicates you have vitamn deficiency. Start having I tab. Zincovit or cap becousule once daily after breakfast for 30 days. The burning sensation should be gone. Also check for platelet count in blood.
