PERIODONTICS
PERIODONTICS IN BASINGSTOKE AT DR CARMEN AESTHETICS
Healthy gums, healthy smile
Your gums are the foundation or you smile. At Dr Carmen Aesthetics, our specialised periodontal care focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum disease - helping you protect your natural teeth and maintain long-term oral health.
WHAT IS PERIODONTICS?
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry dedicated to the structures that support your teeth - mainly the gums and bones.
Our expert periodontal team can help with:
- Gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis)
- Gum recession and sensitivity
- Bleeding, swelling, or tenderness
- Bad breath linked to gum infections
- Maintenance after dental implants or oral surgery
SIGNS YOU MAY NEED PERIODONTAL TREATMENT
Gum disease often develops quietly, without significant pain in the early stages. Recognising the warning signs early can help prevent long-term damage to your gums and supporting bone.
You may benefit from a periodontal assessment if you notice:
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Red, swollen, or tender gums
- Persistent bad breath or an unpleasant taste
- Gum recession (teeth appearing longer)
- Sensitivity near the gum line
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Pus between the teeth and gums
- Changes in the way your teeth fit together when biting
These symptoms may indicate inflammation or infection beneath the gum line. Without treatment, gum disease can progress and lead to bone loss and tooth mobility.
If you are experiencing any of the above, we recommend booking a comprehensive periodontal evaluation.
Early diagnosis allows for simpler, more effective treatment — helping you protect your smile for the long term.
WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT
At Dr Carmen Aesthetics, we combine clinical excellence with advanced technology to deliver a higher standard of care.
One of the key ways we stand apart is our use of dental laser technology in periodontal treatment. Traditional gum treatments often rely solely on manual instruments to remove infection. Our laser allows us to target bacteria with precision, reducing trauma to the surrounding tissue and supporting faster healing.
The Benefits of Laser-Assisted Treatment
- Greater precision when removing infected tissue
- Reduced bleeding and inflammation
- Increased comfort during and after treatment
- Faster healing times
- A more minimally invasive approach
We invest in modern equipment because we believe our patients deserve the safest, most effective care available. Technology should enhance results — and your overall experience.
Our approach is thorough, evidence-based, and tailored to each individual. We don’t believe in rushed appointments or one-size-fits-all treatment plans. Instead, we focus on prevention, education, and long-term oral health.
