Healthy gums are the foundation of a strong, beautiful smile. At Westmount Dental, we prioritise your gum health alongside your teeth to ensure lasting oral wellbeing. Our skilled hygienists and specialist periodontists provide expert care to prevent, manage, and treat gum disease, helping you maintain excellent oral hygiene and overall health for years to come.
Why Gum Health Matters
Your gums play a crucial role in supporting and protecting your teeth. Plaque buildup along the gum line can lead to gum disease (periodontal disease), which, if left untreated, may cause discomfort, tooth loss, and even impact your general health. Our experienced hygienists use gentle, specialised tools and techniques to remove plaque and tartar effectively during your routine cleaning appointments, protecting your gums from inflammation and disease progression.
Comprehensive Periodontal Care: Surgical and Non-Surgical Treatments
We offer a full spectrum of advanced periodontal care tailored to your specific needs. Our expert team includes highly trained periodontists who diagnose and treat all stages of gum disease with both non-surgical and surgical approaches:
Scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) to remove plaque and tartar from beneath the gum line and smooth root surfaces, promoting gum reattachment and healing.
Gum grafting, flap surgery, and regenerative procedures to repair and restore damaged gum and bone tissue for improved oral health and function.
With this comprehensive approach, we effectively manage mild to severe periodontal disease, preserving your natural teeth and supporting your overall oral wellness.
Education and Prevention for Long-Term Gum Health
At Westmount Dental, prevention is our priority. Our hygienists provide personalised coaching and practical advice to enhance your daily oral care routine. From mastering proper brushing and flossing techniques to making dietary adjustments that support gum health, we empower you to take control of your oral hygiene and maintain a healthy smile.
