Specialist Periodontist in Kent

What is Periodontics?
At Aligndent Grove House, we specialize in Periodontics, a distinct field within dentistry. Our focus encompasses the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal diseases, which impact the supportive tissues and structures surrounding your teeth, including gums, periodontal ligaments, and alveolar bone.
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease or gingivitis, occurs when bacteria-laden plaque infiltrates the space between your teeth and gums. This intrusion gradually causes damage to the roots of your teeth and the supporting bone. Over time, symptoms may manifest as irritated and swollen gums, increased bleeding, discomfort during chewing, and, if left unaddressed, potential tooth loss. Early intervention with periodontic treatment can help mitigate these unpleasant consequences.
Our team comprises skilled and experienced periodontists committed to assisting you in maintaining optimal oral health and tooth stability. We provide comprehensive support to empower you in combating gum disease and preserving the health of your mouth.
If you have inquiries about our periodontal services or seek professional advice, feel free to reach out to us today. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to contribute to the achievement and sustenance of your healthy and appealing smile.
Aligndent Grove House’s Approach
At Aligndent Ashford, we acknowledge the individuality of each patient and are dedicated to working together with you to create a personalized treatment plan that suits your specific needs and goals.
Our highly skilled periodontists excel in a variety of procedures, including:
- Scaling and root planing: This process involves removing plaque and calculus (tartar) from your teeth and roots, effectively reducing inflammation and preventing gum disease.
- Gum grafts: In instances of a receding gumline, a gum graft can be utilized to cover exposed roots, offering protection against further damage.
- Osseous surgery: This surgical technique is employed to eliminate infected bone and tissue, as well as reshape the bone to establish a more stable foundation for your teeth.
- Dental implants: This procedure entails replacing one or more missing teeth with a permanent and aesthetically natural-looking implant.
