What's included

Common questions

Who does the gum treatment?+

A visiting Periodontist on our consultant panel, an MDS specialist in this exact field, working alongside our in-house team. You don't need a referral; we coordinate everything in one place.

Will it hurt?+

Modern local anaesthesia makes the procedure itself painless. Some soreness for a day or two afterwards is normal and settles with standard pain relief. We explain exactly what to expect before we start.

How much will it cost?+

It depends on the tooth and the extent of the problem, so we quote after examining you. The examination and quote carry no obligation, and we always explain your options before any treatment begins.

Can this be done alongside braces or aligners?+

Usually yes, and often it should be. Because the specialist and the orthodontist are on the same panel, treatments are sequenced properly: for example, gum treatment before braces, or alignment before an implant.
