Specialist Gum Service

Gum health is often overlooked when it comes to oral health, but it’s just as important as healthy teeth, in fact, even more so!

Neglecting your gums can lead to a variety of serious oral and medical health issues, including gum disease, bone loss and eventual loss of teeth. At Platinum Dental, our US trained specialist orthodontist is on hand to work with you to maintain and prevent further loss of teeth.

So, what exactly is periodontal care? Periodontal care is a specialised area of dentistry focused on the health and treatment of the gums and the tissues that surround and support the teeth. Our periodontists are trained to diagnose and treat a range of gum-related issues, from gum recession to significant bone loss and mobile teeth. They use the latest technology and techniques to ensure that you receive the best possible care for your gums.

It’s important to understand that gum disease is a serious issue that can have significant long-term effects on your dental and overall health. Gum disease is caused by the buildup of food particles and germs on the teeth and gums, leading to inflammation and infection of the gums. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss, bone loss in the jaw, and even an increased risk of heart disease and other health issues.

We understand the importance of healthy gums, and our approachable and skilled periodontists offer a range of treatments, including deep cleaning, scaling and root planning, gum grafting and laser therapy to help restore your gums to their healthiest state.
