Gum care
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile.
Overview
Gum disease starts with inflammation and can progress without pain. Bleeding gums, bad breath, or gums that look swollen or are pulling away from the teeth are common signs.
Treatment ranges from a professional deep clean to more targeted periodontal care, followed by guidance on keeping your gums healthy at home.
May be a good fit if you…
- Your gums bleed when you brush or floss

Early gum inflammation can often be improved with professional cleaning and good home care. More advanced disease can usually be controlled but needs ongoing maintenance.
We use local anaesthesia when needed to keep you comfortable. Your gums may feel tender for a short time afterwards.
