Scaling and root planing
Deep cleaning below the gumline to remove bacteria and tartar from tooth roots.
Specialist gum treatment
Diagnose and treat gum disease from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis.

Overview
Gum disease starts when plaque and tartar build up along the gumline, causing inflammation, bleeding, and pocketing around teeth.
Left untreated, gum disease can lead to bad breath, tooth mobility, bone loss, and eventual tooth loss. Early treatment is simpler, more comfortable, and more predictable.
