Our gum specialists offer a range of expert treatments for gum disease, general oral health, dental implants and other specialised gum and bone treatments. It's important to note that while general dentists can treat mild cases of gum disease, our periodontists are gum specialists with advanced training specifically focused on the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal conditions.
What Does a Periodontist Do?
A periodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases that affect the supporting structures of the teeth, primarily the gums and the bones surrounding the teeth.
Our expert team provides personalised care and advanced gum health treatments in a supportive environment. We provide specialist gum disease treatments, gum health plans, treatments for gum recession or gummy smiles, dental implants, bone grafts and other specialised treatments.
- Gum Disease (Periodontitis)
Treating gum disease requires a structured and careful approach. Our gum specialists can assess and diagnose conditions like gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) and periodontitis (inflammation of the supporting structures of the teeth) and recommend appropriate courses of treatment. These may include scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), antibiotics, oral hygiene instruction, as well as surgical procedures to address advanced cases.
- Gum Recession
Gum recession, also known as gingival recession, is a dental condition where the gum tissue that surrounds the teeth begins to pull back or wear away, exposing more of the tooth or its root. This can lead to gaps or pockets between the teeth and gums, making it easier for bacteria to accumulate. Gum recession can be a gradual process and may go unnoticed until it becomes more severe.
In cases of serious gum recession, we can perform a gum graft to replace the lost gum tissue. This not only addresses the oral health risks of gum recession, but will also improve your smile.
- Dental Implants
Dental implants are a fixed and permanent way to replace lost teeth. The process involves surgically inserting a titanium screw into the jawbone, from which dental prosthetics like crowns, bridges, or dentures can be attached.
Our team can determine if dental implants are right for you and work with you through the bone preparation process, implant placement and aftercare and maintenance.
- Maintenance and Follow-up Care
Our team of periodontists provide ongoing care and maintenance to manage and monitor the health of the gums and supporting structures, especially for patients with chronic periodontal conditions.
