Dental hygiene therapy plays a vital role in helping to keep your teeth and gums healthy by avoiding gum disease or by keeping this under tight control.

Gum disease is extremely common and is caused by plaque which is a constantly-forming sticky film of bacteria.

Initial symptoms of gum disease include sore or bleeding gums and bad breath. If left untreated, it can eventually lead to tooth loss.

Our periodontal services include:

• Elements of paediatric dentistry: white fillings and fissure sealants
• Maintenance of the mouth following treatment
• Teeth whitening
• Periodontal treatment
• Scaling and teeth polishing
• Preventive dental disease

Early gum disease is very common. Usually it can be kept under control by regular hygienist treatments and by a good daily oral healthcare routine. However, if left untreated, it can progress to become periodontal disease, which slowly destroys the gum tissue and bone which holds your teeth in place.Eventually your teeth can become loose and may fall out or need extracting. As well as providing preventative services we offer treatment to bring the disease back under control and to help save your teeth from falling out.

Our periodontal treatments include:

• Periodontal assessment
• Preventative periodontal treatment
• Periodontal or gum disease treatment
