Periodontics: Treating Pyorrhoea (Gum Disease)
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry devoted to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of gum and periodontal disease. If neglected, these gum conditions and infections can lead to tooth loss and general health problems.
Periodontal treatment can halt the progression of the disease and restore the health of your mouth. It is aimed at anyone suffering from gingivitis or periodontitis, or who wants to prevent gum problems.

The Benefits of Periodontal Treatment
- Halts the progression of gum disease, protecting your natural teeth.

How the Treatment Works
Periodontal treatment begins with a thorough consultation, during which our specialist assesses the condition of your gums and the tissues supporting your teeth. The main stages include:
- Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing): to remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline.
- Laser or surgical therapy (in advanced cases): to treat periodontal pockets and regenerate damaged tissue.
- Oral hygiene education: personalised advice to help you maintain the results.
Every treatment is tailored to the patient’s needs, for an effective and comfortable experience.
