Tackle gum disease early before lasting damage sets in.
Gum disease is surprisingly widespread and often goes unnoticed until it's fairly advanced. Spotted early as gingivitis, it usually responds well to professional care combined with sound home habits. Left unchecked, it can progress into periodontitis, which calls for more specialist periodontal treatment focused on clearing harmful bacteria from beneath the gum line and stabilising the condition. While a routine hygiene visit is mainly about prevention, gum disease treatment actively manages an infection beneath the gums and protects the bone anchoring your teeth. The aim throughout is straightforward: stop the disease progressing, restore healthier gums, and help you keep your natural teeth for as long as possible.

Look out for bleeding when brushing, swollen or tender gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums and, in more advanced cases, teeth that feel loose. If any of these sound familiar, book a check-up promptly.
A routine hygiene visit focuses on prevention, clearing plaque and tartar above the gum line. Gum disease treatment goes further, addressing infection beneath the gums to stabilise periodontitis.
Gingivitis, the early stage, can usually be reversed with treatment and good home care. Periodontitis, the more advanced form, can't be fully cured but can typically be managed and kept stable.
Most patients find it perfectly manageable. Where deeper cleaning beneath the gums is needed, local anaesthetic keeps you comfortable throughout.
Not necessarily — caught early and properly managed, most patients keep their natural teeth for years. Early treatment makes the biggest difference long-term.
Regular check-ups, ongoing maintenance appointments, and thorough brushing plus cleaning between teeth are your best protection against recurrence.
