Why Visit a Periodontist?

When most people think of oral health and hygiene, they think of their teeth. But the truth is that our gums and the bones supporting our teeth are just as important, preventing tooth loss, gum disease, gingivitis and much more.

Some of the warning signs you may need to see our periodontist near Balwyn include:

  • Receding gums

  • Bleeding when brushing or flossing your teeth

  • Swollen, tender or red gums

  • Bad breath

  • Loosening teeth

  • Teeth changing positions within your mouth

Our Treatments

We specialise in a wide range of periodontal conditions and their treatments, helping patients restore their smiles and once again enjoy all the benefits of healthy, high functioning gums and teeth. Our services include:

Gum Diseases

  • Gingivitis: While we all have germs in our mouth that form plaque, if not removed effectively it can cause the gum to become inflamed and lead to bleeding, redness, bad breath and more.

  • Periodontal Disease: Periodontal disease is when an infection of the gum causes the bone which holds in the tooth to dissolve. This can cause the teeth to become loose and move around inside the mouth, leading to significant pain. We treat periodontitis by specialised cleaning methods and treating the root causes, which can range from poor hygiene to smoking.

  • Gum Grafting: Gum disease or trauma can cause it to recede, exposing the yellow root of the teeth. Often, this can be reversed with a gum graft, which requires a consultation beforehand in which we’ll carefully assess its suitability to your condition.

  • Gum Lifting: Gum lifting is a cosmetic treatment performed to reverse a gummy smile. For this to be performed your gums need to be otherwise healthy.

Dental Implants

  • Single Tooth: Titanium posts that are placed into the jaw to help anchor a tooth and look, feel and function like natural teeth thanks to the expertise of our team.

  • Multiple Teeth: If two or more teeth are missing in a row, it’s possible to use several implants to replace them. This will depend on the bone available and the biting forces these teeth will be under.

  • Full Mouth Reconstruction: For patients who want to replace all of their top or lower teeth. This can be done with as little as four implants.

  • Same Day Implants: Temporary teeth attached to your implants on the same day they’re placed. Suitability will be judged on a case to case basis.

  • Immediate Implants: If you have plenty of bone within your jaw and no significant infections, implants can sometimes be placed in the jaw immediately following tooth removal.
