This condition is caused by bacterial toxins (poisons) which damage
the supporting structures around the teeth which could cause
irreversible damage and premature tooth loss.

Here are some ‘red flags’ – symptoms you may notice that should raise concerns:

  • Bleeding gums when brushing or even whilst eating
  • Red, swollen gums
  • Bad breath
  • Spaces appearing between teeth
  • Loose teeth or teeth moving position in the mouth
  • Receding gums
  • Sensitivity to cold or hot foods and drinks

The treatment proposed is set out to ensure the condition is brought under control, stabilised and monitored closely to prevent recurrence and further deterioration to your periodontal health.

Untreated periodontal disease may leave you at greater risk of Heart Disease, Stroke, Diabetes, respiratory disease, artificial joint failure, prosthesis failure and complications in pregnancy. (

Signs of Gum Disease

AT our dental clinic we offer a general dental check-up, to realise whether you have gum disease that may point to whether your condition is in its propelled stages or not. Common signs of this gum disease you may experience are gums that bleed when eating, brushing, and flossing because they are swollen and sore. You may likewise see that your gums are subsiding.

At the point when this happens, your teeth look longer. If you discover Injuries in your mouth or pus discharge from your gums, at that point chances are that you may have gum disease.

Type of Gum Diseases

Gingivitis

The more drawn out plaque and tartar are on teeth, the more harmful they become. The bacteria cause irritation and inflammation of the gums that is called “gingivitis.” In gingivitis, the gums end up plainly red, swollen and can bleed effectively. Gingivitis is a mild type of gum disease that can be withdrawn with every day brushing and flossing, and normal cleaning by a dental practitioner or dental hygienist. This type of gum disease does exclude any loss of bone and tissue.

Periodontitis

At the point when gingivitis is not treated, it can progress to “periodontitis” (which signifies “irritation, and inflammation around the tooth”). In periodontitis, gums pull far from the teeth and shape spaces (called “pockets”) that end up noticeably infected. The body’s immune system battles the bacteria as the plaque spreads and develops underneath the gum line. Bacterial toxins and the body’s reaction to infection begin to separate the bone and connective tissue that hold teeth. If not treated, the bones, gums, and tissue that help the teeth are damaged. The teeth may in the long run turn out to be free and must be extracted.

Early diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease are essential in keeping your teeth for life.

I have had many treatments with the team at EGO and despite my deep fears of dentists, they have always made me feel comfortable and secure. Charlie has even used a Virtual breathing VR experience to help me relaxed.
They are also always considering your well being during treatments.
I’m extremely happy with this clinic! Everything was excellent and well organized. Dr. Attariani is highly skilled both professionally and technically, and I always felt I was in very safe hands. The entire team is incredibly friendly, attentive, and creates a very welcoming atmosphere.
I visited for dental treatment and also had a tattoo removal done here. Both experiences were outstanding and handled with great care and professionalism.
Highly recommended, everything here is just right!
Golnar, Charlie, and the entire team is kind, helpful and incredibly professional! I have had several routine treatments like fillings done over the past five years there, as well as getting Invisalign. The tools and materials are always top notch, the clinic is immaculate and modern, and they always have a kind word and a smile for you. I could not recommend them more, and I am lucky to have found them!
