From early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis — diagnostics, deep cleaning, laser therapy and a maintenance plan that keeps it from coming back.
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. It starts with plaque — a sticky film of bacteria — which hardens into tartar if it isn’t cleaned away properly.
Left untreated, patients risk tooth loss and deterioration of the bone that holds teeth in place, along with links to other health conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. We offer comprehensive diagnostics and periodontal maintenance programmes designed to stop that progression.

Any one of these is worth a call. Several together means don’t wait.
We start with the least invasive option that will actually work.
A non-surgical deep clean that removes tartar and bacteria from below the gumline and smooths the root surface so tissue can reattach.
Targeted removal of infected tissue within the pocket, typically with less bleeding and a more comfortable recovery.
Locally applied or prescribed antibiotics to control bacterial infection alongside mechanical cleaning.
For advanced cases where non-surgical treatment can’t reach or rebuild what has been lost.
Prevention is by far the most effective approach. Brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily and using an antibacterial mouthwash keeps plaque under control between visits.
Regular check-ups let us monitor your gums and catch early signs before they become severe. For patients who have already been treated, periodontal maintenance visits every three months remove buildup from the areas that are genuinely hard to reach at home.
We also put real weight on patient education — you should leave knowing what to do differently, not just what we did.
Gingivitis, the earliest stage, is generally reversible with professional cleaning and better home care. Once it progresses to periodontitis and bone has been lost, treatment focuses on halting the damage and maintaining what remains.
We numb the area thoroughly before scaling and root planing, so the procedure itself is comfortable. Some tenderness for a day or two afterwards is normal.
Patients with a history of periodontal treatment usually come in every three months rather than six, because that is the window in which bacteria re-establish below the gumline.
