Gum disease therapy

Gum disease is one of the most common oral diseases and affects people of all ages. Caused by a build-up of plaque and bacteria on the gum line, gum disease can lead to bleeding, inflammation and redness and if left to progress, can lead to tooth loss.

Gum disease can also be aggravated by:

  • Smoking
  • Lack of brushing or flossing
  • If you have diabetes or other chronic diseases
  • Certain medications

If you spot signs of gum disease you can initially treat these at home by stepping up your hygiene routine and using dentist-approved products. If your symptoms do not improve, your Envisage Dental West Moors dentist and dental hygienist will recommend a personal oral health plan to address your individual needs. Gum hygiene is important to ensure that your teeth remain supported and healthy.

Advanced gum disease

The first stage of gum disease, known as gingivitis, can be simple to reverse. However, if left to progress it can develop into a more advanced form of gum disease known as periodontitis, resulting in the formation of gaps between the gums and teeth, known as pockets. More plaque can collect in these pockets and thus continue the progression of the disease. As the pockets deepen, the plaque becomes more inaccessible to cleaning, more extensive and more toxic. This leads to increasing damage to the supporting bone around the roots of the teeth.

Periodontal treatment is provided by our specialist periodontist who will clean the pockets around teeth to prevent damage to surrounding bone. The majority of Periodontal treatment involves thoroughly cleaning the tooth root surface. However, advanced cases may it also involve surgical and restorative techniques.

After initial stabilisation of the condition has been achieved, a thorough lifelong home care regime is required to prevent future lapses, along with regular monitoring and maintenance from your dentist and dental hygienist.

If you are suffering with symptoms of gum disease book a review with our dental hygiene team today.

I'm a new patient to this Dentist and visited three times , two were short notices to have teeth extracting , of which one was a Wisdom Tooth , they are amazing in every way there , from talking to the receptionists and especially Rami , he is exceptional at his job , very calming , explains everything is detail and a professional in his workmanship. Due to horrific past experiences all my life at Dentists every muscle in my body was tensed solid until I realised he wasn't actually hurting me on borh extraction occasions , he administered the perfect amount of anesthetic and waited for it to fully numb me. My fear of Dentists has gone now

Every person there seems to enjoy working in the practice. They are polite, professional and caring, which is a hard balancing act to achieve. They all make you feel like you're the only patient and are exceptionally well trained. Nothing is too much trouble. I recommended the practice to my colleague, Val M, and tell everyone I know how good the service is!

My first time attending this practice and I saw Rami. He has restored my faith in dentists. He and his dental nurse were gentle, considerate, and everything was explained so I understood what was happening. As soon as you walk in the practice, the reception staff are happy and smiling and then on to Rami. Can't fault the practice at all and will definitely go back.

I've been a patient at Envisage West Moors from when it was West Moors dental clinic. I always have a good experience there, whether it's a hygienist visit, a checkup or actual treatment which thankfully is rare. The team do their best to prevent treatment being necessary by giving good advice and help with good oral hygiene and practices. The reception team are welcoming and helpful, the dental staff and their assistants are all good natured, help you to feel comfortable, are skilled, attentive and knowledgable. Any treatment has always lasted the test of time and hasn't needed subsequent attention and they don't do unnecessary work. I recommended my wife to go there and she has the same positive experience.

Sevi and Sema both make me feel special and make it clear that they care about my dental health. They have a gentle touch, are thorough, attentive, skilled and give advice on how to imrove my health. They are congenial and make me feel at ease during my appointments. Their assistant is also on the ball, preempting when suction and tools are needed, looking up details online and making the appointment run smoothly.

I attended my appointment at the appropriate time, i was seen very quickly. the Dentist as always explained what was going to happen in great detail, He took X-rays and showed me the X-rays, explaining what he was showing me. He then fitted my temporary dentures and made my next appointment again explaining what was going to happen

This survey has been difficult to complete and perhaps the overall outcome is a little too positive. My husband had two appointments. The first to see Sevvy, who was his previous dentist when she was at Fordingbridge. This appointment was to get her opinion on a dental problem. The smile we were greeted with, being called by his first name, my husband relaxed immediately knowing he was in the safe hands of a dentist whose opinion he valued and in whom he had confidence. He will definitely restore his dental relationship with Sevvy! The second appointment was with the hygienist the following day at Sevvy’s suggestion, which didn’t come as a surprise. I had made it blatantly obvious that my husband suffers from anxiety, we both told the hygienist that he had very sensitive teeth. Perhaps a calmer, quieter, slower pace would have suited him best. He felt a little overwhelmed. The work on his teeth and the outcome was positive, the process was very instructive but somewhat intense. This is not a criticism. All the processes were clearly explained, he was told to put a finger up at any time, but maybe felt it would disturb the routine which he didn’t want to interrupt.

Very friendly and professional staff
