Periodontal Therapy
Gums are the foundation of our mouth supporting our teeth, keeping them secure.
Gums are the foundation of our mouth supporting our teeth, keeping them secure. Gum disease can affect the health of our gums weakening their support and can result in tooth loss.
Periodontal therapy works to improve gum health and, in some cases, can reverse the effects of gum disease over a course of treatment.
Periodontal therapy works by deep cleaning of the tooth’s roots under the gumline.
It is important that you stick to the home care instruction provided by your dentist to support the treatment provided and combine it with a healthy diet and lifestyle.
If you have bleeding gums or have any concerns, please book an appointment.
I qualified from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 2013, with Merit in Clinical Dentistry and the NEMLS prize. I then completed my foundation training year, and was awarded the FGDP prize. I joined Linden Cottage in 2022, and also act as Clinical Lead within the practice.
I have always been committed to postgraduate education, and in 2019 passed membership examinations with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. I enjoy providing a very wide range of general and aesthetic dental treatments, examples of which are available on my Instagram page.
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Endodontics (Root Canal Treatment) and work with the benefit of a state-of-the-art operating microscope. This often allows me to save teeth, that may have otherwise been extracted.
Outside of work, I’m a keen musician. I enjoy reading and travelling with my wife, Zeynep.
