Our highly skilled team of hygienists can deliver the unique gum care needed to prevent gum disease and tooth loss. Gemma, Jenna, Charlotte, Harriet, Jose, Kate, Amer and Lucy provide nonsurgical treatment and supportive periodontal care.
Our clinicians therefore
- have clinical expertise required to treat and maintain periodontal patients
- have day to day experience of treating complicated cases
- know what type of treatment is required
- deliver exceptional outcomes to enable patients to save their teeth
- discuss treatment progress with Dr King
- invite Dr King to review problem areas that may require advanced treatment.
This makes our dedicated practice to gum health unique in providing long term specialist periodontal care that helps patient’s keep their teeth.
Long term success following gum treatment by Dr King depends on recall hygiene visits that are specific to support and maintain gum health for each patient. As experienced clinicians, our hygienists play a pivotal role in maintaining gum health by:
- providing a home care regime that is tailor made for each individual
- dietary & nutritional advice
- identifying specific sites around teeth & recording any progression or re-emergence of all forms of gum disease
- preventing gum disease around teeth & implants
- focusing on plaque control aiming to reduce plaque & bleeding scores to <10%
- formulating for each patient a periodontal risk assessment based on their clinical findings
- treating any active sites with bleeding gums liaising with Dr King as well as dentists & hygienists from referring practices in providing specific supportive periodontal care for each patient.
