Gum disease prevention focuses on removing plaque, cleaning between teeth and checking the gums regularly. Your dentist can identify inflammation and explain any further assessment or treatment needed.

Assess your oral health, symptoms and goals.

01

Assessment first

Your oral health, preferences and medical history shape the recommendation.

02

Understand the alternatives

The examination determines which preventive measures are appropriate. Tell your dentist about sensitivity, medicines and previous reactions; preventive care reduces risk but cannot guarantee that problems will not develop.

Is this treatment
right for you?

An examination is needed to decide whether this treatment suits your oral health and goals.

Ask our team
  • Individuals with a family history of gum disease.
  • Pregnant women, who are at higher risk of gum issues due to hormonal changes.
  • Smokers or people with diabetes, both of whom are at increased risk of periodontal problems.
