Periodontics at Serene Dental and Facial Aesthetics

At Serene Dental and Facial Aesthetics, we believe that healthy gums are the foundation for a healthy smile. Periodontics is the specialised field of dentistry focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, as well as the supporting structures of the teeth, including bones and ligaments.

Whether you are looking for preventative care or require advanced treatment for complex gum issues, our expert team is here to provide you with personalised, evidence-based care.

What is Periodontics?

Periodontics is a dental specialty that deals with the treatment and prevention of gum disease (periodontal disease) and the management of the structures that support your teeth, including the bones and gums.

This area of dentistry includes everything from routine gum health maintenance to complex procedures aimed at restoring the health and function of the gums and supporting bone. Healthy gums are essential for maintaining overall oral health and achieving long-term dental success.

Periodontal issues can lead to tooth loss, bone deterioration, and aesthetic concerns. Periodontic treatments help restore your gum health, reduce discomfort, and improve the appearance of your smile.

What is Periodontal Disease?

They are many types of periodontal disease – sometimes called gum disease. However, the general underlying definition is infection and inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding the teeth. This inflammation and the resulting damage is caused by the bacteria in plaque and can have hereditary factors. If left untreated, this can lead to loss of the supporting bone structure and eventual tooth loss.

What treatments are available for periodontal disease?

After an initial consultation, we will be able to provide you with a bespoke treatment plan.

There are numerous different gum disease treatment options available. Initially, your hygienist, therapist, dentist, or periodontist will take measurements around each tooth to ascertain the disease’s progression and stage. Your teeth are thoroughly cleaned on all surfaces – including root surfaces if required – and then reviewed at regular intervals with the overarching aim of halting the progression of tissue damage.

Most treatments are based upon the removal of debris and good oral hygiene routines at home.

Is the periodontal treatment uncomfortable??

All Serene treatments are done with your wellbeing at the forefront of our minds, and our procedures are carried out with empathy. Our friendly team will talk you through the process and treatment options as part of your personalised treatment plan.

If you feel anxious about treatment, please do let us know, as you may benefit from The Enjoyable Dentistry Techniqueâ„¢, which will combine a mild sedative with calming visualisations to aid a more pleasant dental experience.

Our Periodontal Services

At Serene Dental and Facial Aesthetics, we offer a wide range of non-surgical and surgical periodontal treatments to ensure your gum health is maintained or restored to the highest standard. Our treatments include:

Non-surgical Periodontal Care

Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove plaque and tartar below the gumline, helping to manage gum disease.

Bone and Gum Regeneration

Techniques to regenerate bone and gum tissue lost due to periodontal disease, promoting healthy tissue growth and supporting your teeth.

Gum Grafting

Surgical procedures to repair gum recession, where gum tissue is transplanted to areas with insufficient tissue, restoring both function and aesthetics.

Resective Surgery for Periodontal Disease

Procedures to remove damaged gum tissue and reshape the gums, helping to reduce pocket depths and prevent further gum recession.

Aesthetic Crown Lengthening

A cosmetic procedure that reshapes the gums to expose more of the tooth surface, improving the appearance of the smile by creating a more balanced gum-to-tooth
ratio.
