periodontal care
Periodontal Disease, or Gum Disease, is a silent but serious problem. Patients often experience no pain or symptoms; however, more than 45% of adults in the UK are affected by it. Even in its mildest form, it can affect the quality of life. If left untreated, Gum Disease can lead to bad breath, loose and gappy teeth, infections, tooth loss and damage to the bone and soft tissue in your mouth. In fact, many studies link oral health to a number of significant conditions, such as Alzheimer’s, heart health and Diabetes.
Brushing or mouthwash alone does not offer complete protection. However, Gum Disease is highly preventable and, especially in the early stages, quite easily treatable.

Gum diseases are considered by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as one of two significant global burdens of oral disease, with the other being dental decay. Severe Periodontitis is now recognised as being the sixth most prevalent disease of mankind.
The purpose of our many gum treatments is to protect your teeth and smile to last you a lifetime. Gum care will stop the progress of Gum Disease and strengthen your teeth’s support structure.
The science is clear: your gums don't deteriorate with age. Therefore, in most cases, appropriate treatments and your willingness to fight Gum Disease is all it takes to keep your gums and teeth healthy for life.
