At Hampton Dental Surgery, we provide comprehensive periodontal procedures to treat gum disease, restore gum health, and protect your teeth from long-term damage.
Healthy gums are essential for a strong, stable smile. When gum disease develops, early treatment can prevent tooth loss and improve overall oral health.
Periodontal procedures are treatments used to manage and treat gum disease (periodontitis), which affects the gums, bone, and supporting structures of your teeth.
These treatments range from non-surgical deep cleaning to advanced surgical procedures, depending on the severity of the condition.
Gum disease begins with inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) and can progress into a more serious condition called periodontitis if left untreated.
Common signs include:
Bleeding or swollen gums
Persistent bad breath
Gum recession
Loose teeth
Sensitivity or discomfort
We offer a range of treatments tailored to your needs:
A non-surgical procedure that removes plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline, helping gums heal and reattach to the teeth.
Antibacterial treatments may be used alongside cleaning procedures to control infection and support healing.
For advanced cases, the gums are gently lifted to clean deep pockets and remove bacteria before repositioning the tissue for better healing.
Used to restore receding gums, protect exposed roots, and improve the appearance of your smile.
Maintaining gum health is essential for overall dental wellbeing.
We provide personalised, step-by-step care:
We examine your gums, measure pocket depths, and may take digital X-rays.
Surgical procedures may be recommended for more severe cases.
