Dental Specialty Periodontics Bradford

Periodontics is a dental specialty that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of gum disease.

It is well established that general health is reflected in your gums. By looking after your gums, you can reduce the risk of bacteria entering your bloodstream via your mouth. As part of a healthy lifestyle, and treatment protocols developed by Jan Lindhe (author of Clinical Periodontology and Implant Dentistry), we can reduce the impact of this disease and help you get better oral health. When gum problems occur, a more thorough cleaning is required to tackle bacterial plaque and any solidified plaque or tartar (calculus), which may be present and could harbour infections. Depending on the severity of the periodontal disease, we use different protocols to successfully get it under control. Due to the therapists’ and hygienists’ extensive training, they are swift and efficient when it comes to detecting any signs of the commencement of (severe) gum diseases. We offer treatments such as scaling and root planning to tackle any gum disease.

Health First, Function Next, Aesthetics Last

“We’ve always said it: health first, function next, aesthetics last. You can’t build on sand. If the foundations aren’t right, the smile won’t hold.” — Dr Ian Wellings

Patients Know When Treatment Has Been Thought Through

“Our patients might not use the word ‘interdisciplinary’, but they can tell when treatment has been thought through as a whole.” — Dr Sonil Kalia

Explaining the Sequence, Not Selling a Dream

“It’s not about selling a dream — it’s about explaining the sequence that makes sense for their mouth.” — Dr Sonil Kalia
