Pre­ven­ta­tive care

We can help you to stop gum dis­ease developing.

Spe­cial­ist team

Our high­ly trained peri­odon­tists are here to help.

Pre­vent tooth loss

Ear­ly inter­ven­tion can help pre­vent tooth loss.

Gum dis­ease can lead to wide­spread health prob­lems if left untreat­ed. The good news is that it is very easy to treat and many patients respond well to treat­ment. There are also steps you can take at home to keep your mouth and gums healthy.

If you're concerned about gum disease, regular trips to the dental hygienist will help you to stay on top of your oral health. Not only will you enjoy a deep and thorough professional cleaning, but you will also get personalised advice for caring for your teeth and gums at home. Every mouth is different, so how you care for your teeth might be very different to how someone else cares for their teeth.

Your dental hygienist can help you to learn the difference between different types of floss or teach you how to use interdental brushes. They can also advise on which oral care products will help to improve your oral health and which might prove to be a waste of money. And finally, they can give you personalised advice on other treatments that might be of interest to you, including cosmetic and restorative care.

How we treat gum disease

Gum dis­ease treat­ment will vary depend­ing on the sever­i­ty of your symp­toms and how advanced your case is. With ear­ly inter­ven­tion, we might be able to pre­vent it with improved oral hygiene and reg­u­lar hygien­ist cleanings.

Improve oral hygiene

Adjust­ing your brush­ing and floss­ing rou­tine may be all that is need­ed to stop gum disease.

Reg­u­lar hygien­ist cleanings

A scale and pol­ish at the den­tist will remove bac­te­ria, plaque and tar­tar build-up.

Spe­cial­ist mouthwash

Mouth­wash con­tain­ing chlorhex­i­dine or hex­e­ti­dine may help pre­vent the build-up of plaque.

Root plan­ing

This exten­sive spe­cial­ist clean­ing gets below the gum line to remove harm­ful bacteria.

Tooth extrac­tion

In some cas­es, extrac­tion may be required if the tooth roots have been exposed.

Oral surgery

In advanced cas­es, we may rec­om­mend oral surgery to pro­tect your remain­ing teeth.

Fre­quent­ly asked questions

We’ve answered the most com­mon patient ques­tions below. If you still have ques­tions about your den­tal treat­ment, get in touch to book a consultation. 

The earliest signs of gum disease include red and inflamed gums and spitting blood when you brush your teeth. If you spot any of these signs, it's important to see a dentist as soon as possible.

In some situations, your gum disease may have progressed to the point where tooth extraction is the only option. In this case, we will work with you to get your remaining teeth and gums in a healthy condition before exploring restoration options such as dental implants, a bridge or a denture.

You can get a simple scale and polish on the NHS if it is medically necessary. However, for more specialist care and longer treatment times, we recommend private gum disease treatment.

Treatment starts from just £65 for a simple scale and polish. The treatment that you require will depend on the severity of your case, so we recommend you book an appointment with our team to learn more about gum disease treatment with us.

Don’t just take our word for it.
Feed­back from our hap­py patients

  • I have just finished a long treatment plan at The Implant and Cosmetic Smiles Clinic with Dr. Bakhshi and I'm so glad that I found this practice! Due to a failed root canal and damage to my tooth root at another practice, I had to have an extraction, jaw bone graft, and dental implant here. I was really nervous due to the bad experience at my previous dentist but I couldn't have been in better hands. It was a long process (approx 1 year) but I appreciated that they really took their time to get it right and let everything heal properly inbetween appointments for the best result possible rather than just getting you in and out as quick as possible. The practice is clean and welcoming, Dr. Bakhshi was brilliant and put me at ease, and the treatment went perfectly! During the course of my treatment plan I actually moved to Newcastle but I drove back for every single one of my appointments, that's how brilliant they are! Special shout out to Kirsty and Roxana for being SO welcoming and brilliant at their jobs too - even if it had been months between appointments they recognised me every time and asked how my journey back had been, how was my holiday etc...WOULD NOT hesitate to return here and I'm gutted I live so far away now as I would absolutely have stayed a patient here forever if I hadn't!

  • Just finished having a new implant. Dr Aryan and his team were excellent. The reception team are also first class. As a senior citizen I was a little anxious about the procedure but need not have worried. I have no hesitation in recommending this Dental Clinic.

  • I came across this practice in a Google search and thought I'd book a consultation. I'm so glad that I did. From the initial advice provided to the level of care and excellent communication, everything has been great. The reception staff, nurses and dentist have all provided a top service. My invisalign journey was smooth and I'm absolutely delighted with the finished results.Would 100% recommend.

  • I had a root canal treatment with Dr Aryan and he was fantastic. He took the time to explain everything to me and gave me all options before going ahead with the procedure. He carried out the treatment excellently and was clearly very knowledgable. I felt reassured all the way through. All of the staff were very warm and friendly. Thank you for making the experience as comfortable as possible.

  • I had a great transformation my old teeth were looking bad. The process was a great experience and team and dentist were so helpful through out the months as I removed all my old top teeth and had a whole new set on top. The team and dentist explained everything along the journey and were always a phone call away and always happy to answer any questions. I would recommend anyone that wants a new amazing smile to contact them. Thank you for the amazing new smile and making me feel full of confidence again to smile.
