Gum Disease Treatment

Gently and effectively treating gum disease.

Periodontal (gum) disease affects the foundation supporting your teeth and is a leading cause of tooth loss. Our gentle, effective treatment aims to halt progression and restore gum health.

Gum Disease Treatments

  • Regular advanced hygiene and cleaning sessions
  • Deep cleaning under the gums (root scaling and planning)
  • Laser gum surgery for advanced cases
  • Personalised home care programmes

Where gums have receded, gum grafts for receding gums may be discussed with our periodontist.

Stages of Gum Disease

Stage 1 — Gingivitis: Calculus builds and gums become inflamed. Reversible with treatment.

Stage 2 — Periodontitis: Inflamed gums separate from teeth, forming pockets with early bone loss. Treatable.

Stage 3 — Advanced Periodontitis: Deep pockets, severe bone loss, and risk of tooth loss.

Home Care Advice

  • Use medicated mouthwash
  • Brush twice daily with an electric toothbrush
  • Floss after every meal
  • Replace toothbrush every three months
  • Use interdental brushes
