Gum Health Management

Gum disease is the leading reason why adults prematurely lose their teeth. The great news is it’s totally preventable.

Absolutely. Having plaque regularly removed from your gum line by a hygienist is a worthwhile undertaking that will protect your gums. Each time you come in to see us, we will be able to let you know when you next need to come in (this time scale will be determined by the present condition of your gums).

There are certain individuals who may have a higher risk of developing gum disease, for example:

• Pregnant women – hormonal changes can cause an increased susceptibility
• Smokers
• Genetics
• Diabetes
• Immune disorders
• Stress
• Poor oral hygiene

There are so many advantages of having gum disease treated, from reversing bad breath and unpleasant symptoms like inflammation and bleeding gums to protecting your natural teeth and your general health.

Our state-of-the-art technology allows us to perform minimally invasive gum health treatment. We also have sophisticated diagnostic facilities, giving us a comprehensive picture of your gum health. This allows our dentists to accurately plan your treatment and achieve the most predictable outcome possible.

An educational approach is something we strongly believe in, as this helps to empower you to care for your gums day-to-day. We will always make sure we explain how you can make improvements to your oral hygiene and diet in a way that resonates and that you understand (we don’t do jargon!).

As Benjamin Franklin once said, “An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure”.

This quote emphatically applies to your gums, which will thank you for remaining problem-free as long as you attend preventive, routine hygienist appointments.

After a routine cleaning, you’ll find your teeth feel smooth, and your breath is fresher, as any stubborn plaque deposits will have been removed.

Yes, we offer interest-free and interest-bearing finance so that high-quality dental care is accessible to all our patients.

We understand that coming in to seek implant-based treatments is a huge life event.
