Periodontal disease, commonly referred to as gum disease, is an inflammatory condition affecting the gums and, if left untreated, can lead to more severe complications. It ranges from gingivitis (mild inflammation) to periodontitis (advanced gum disease), and it is a prevalent oral health issue.
We understand the importance of healthy gums as the foundation of a beautiful smile.
Periodontal treatment is a vital aspect of our comprehensive dental care, focusing on the prevention, diagnosis, and management of gum diseases. Our professional team of dentists are dedicated to providing you with the highest quality periodontal care, ensuring your oral health and the longevity of your smile.
Periodontal Treatment
We offer a range of periodontal treatments to address various stages of gum disease, including:
- Scaling and Root Planing: This non-surgical procedure involves deep cleaning of the teeth and root surfaces to remove plaque and tartar buildup.
- Pocket Reduction Surgery: For more advanced cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to reduce the depth of periodontal pockets and remove diseased tissue.
- Crown Lengthening: Designed to expose more of a tooth’s surface by removing excess gum or tissue or, in some cases, bone. It can be performed for both function and cosmetic reasons, enhancing the appearance and health of your smile.
- Maintenance and Education: Our team provides guidance on proper oral hygiene and maintenance to prevent gum disease from recurring.
The Periodontal Treatment Process
The process of periodontal treatment typically involves the following steps:
- Consultation: Our skilled dentists will assess your oral health, perform a comprehensive evaluation, and discuss your specific needs and concerns.
- Diagnosis: Based on your assessment, a diagnosis will be made, and a personalised treatment plan will be created.
- Treatment: The appropriate periodontal treatment will be administered, often in one or more sessions, depending on the severity of your condition.
- Follow-up and Maintenance: Periodontal health requires ongoing care and maintenance, including regular check-ups and cleanings.
Benefits of Periodontal Treatment
- Prevention of tooth loss and gum tissue damage.
- Restoration of healthy gums and oral health.
- Improved bad breath and overall oral hygiene.
- Enhanced smile aesthetics and self-confidence.
- Reduction of the risk of systemic health issues associated with gum disease.
Aftercare and Maintenance
Following periodontal treatment, maintaining excellent oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, is essential to prevent the recurrence of gum disease. Our team will provide guidance on a personalised aftercare plan to maintain your periodontal health.

The practice got a makeover. Priyesh did not. Or did he? 👀😂
Meet Priyesh, who’s somehow getting his own appreciation post when he isn’t even the dentist. His wife is.
Whether you know him through his aesthetics business here at the practice or have simply been subjected to his jokes, you’ll know he’s a huge part of what makes this place feel like us.
Behind the banter is someone who puts his heart into the practice, keeps things running and always makes time for the people walking through the door.
So we’ll let him off for leaving the dentistry to his wife. He’s got his own talents and certainly isn’t short of personality.
New surroundings. Same familiar faces. Priyesh very much included.
Go on then, show him some love. We’ll try not to let it go to his head 😂👇

Dracula is having a very bad week.
He’s lost a fang. 🧛🏻♂️
Once his gum health is stable, we can explore the right way to replace it. Depending on the individual patient, a dental implant may be one possible option for replacing a missing tooth.
The goal isn’t to change who he is. It’s to restore his smile, protect his oral health and return him to full biting duties.
Should we replace the fang or embrace the new look? Tell us below.
Next week: Dracula receives his complete smile plan.
