Advanced Gum Health Care

Plaque is formed by bacteria building up on your teeth and forming a thin layer or biofilm. The build up of plaque is a natural process but if you don’t remove it effectively with twice daily cleaning, plaque can lead periodontal (gum) disease, which is a major cause of early tooth loss. 

Periodontic treatment focuses on the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of gum disease, as well as looking at tissues near to the teeth and the bone structure of the mouth.

Hygienists can carry out a lot of periodontal care, but James Hull Associates also has a number of Periodontal Specialists who are trained to treat more severe or complex cases of periodontal disease.
