OVERVIEW
At The Windsor Dental Practice in Leicester, we provide professional gum disease treatment to stop the progression of gum disease and protect your long-term oral health.
Our onsite hygienist delivers personalised periodontal care from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis, helping you maintain healthy, disease-free gums.
Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults. The earlier it is treated, the better the outcome.
Gum disease often develops without pain. Many patients are unaware they have it until significant damage has already occurred.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms in Leicester, early treatment can prevent further damage and protect your teeth.
Gum disease is a bacterial infection caused by plaque buildup on teeth. When plaque is not removed, it hardens into tartar, spreads below the gum line and triggers infection in the surrounding tissue.
Over time, gums pull away from teeth, forming deep pockets where bacteria accumulate and cause progressive bone and tissue damage.
Gum disease has also been linked to heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, making early periodontal treatment in Leicester essential.
Understanding the stage of your gum disease helps determine the right periodontal treatment in Leicester.
At The Windsor Dental Practice, our on-site hygienist provides a full range of gum disease treatments tailored to the severity of your condition.
Our gum disease treatment in Leicester is straightforward and carried out by our onsite hygienist in a calm, comfortable environment.
Your gum health is assessed, and gum pocket depths are measured to determine the severity of the disease and the most appropriate treatment.
Plaque and tartar are carefully removed from the tooth surface and along the gum line using specialist cleaning instruments.
For moderate to advanced cases, deep cleaning below the gum line is carried out to remove bacteria from gum pockets and smooth the root surface.
If infection is present in deep pockets, Dentomycin antibiotic gel is applied directly to target remaining bacteria.
You receive clear guidance on home oral hygiene, follow-up appointments, and how to maintain healthy gums long term.
Gum disease is not just a dental problem. Research has shown that untreated periodontitis can affect your wider health in serious ways.
Bacteria from infected gums can enter the bloodstream and increase the risk of heart disease and blocked arteries.
Gum disease makes blood sugar levels harder to control, worsening diabetes management.
Chronic gum inflammation has been linked to an increased risk of stroke.
Untreated gum disease during pregnancy has been associated with premature birth and low birth weight.
Early gum disease treatment in Leicester can protect not just your smile, but your overall health.

Gum disease is often painless in its early stages, which is why many patients are unaware they have it. Symptoms such as bleeding gums and sensitivity may develop as the condition progresses.
Gingivitis, the early stage, can be fully reversed with professional treatment and good oral hygiene. Advanced periodontitis cannot be fully cured but can be effectively managed to prevent further damage.
Bleeding gums are most commonly caused by plaque buildup along the gum line, triggering inflammation. This is one of the earliest signs of gum disease and should not be ignored.
Early-stage treatment can be completed in one or two appointments. More advanced cases may require multiple sessions of deep cleaning and ongoing periodontal maintenance visits.
Yes, research has shown that bacteria from infected gums can enter the bloodstream and increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious health conditions.
Gingivitis is the early, reversible stage affecting only the gums. Periodontitis is a more advanced stage where infection spreads to the bone and supporting tissue around the teeth.
Brush twice daily, floss regularly, and attend routine dental check-ups and hygienist appointments. Early professional cleaning removes plaque and tartar before gum disease can develop.
