Other signs include receding gums (your gum shrinking away from the tooth) or bad breath. Gum disease is treatable and can be addressed by simply visiting a dental hygienist regularly as well as practising good oral care every day.

Dr. Talal Khalil, PhD
My name is Dr. Talal Khalil (GDC No: 205679), a qualified dental surgeon having graduated in general dentistry at Safarik University in Slovakia in 2002.
I started my dental career at the Louis Pasteur Faculty Hospital where I gained experience in restorative and aesthetic dentistry. My interests include oral surgery and I have been incredibly lucky to work with some of the most skilled and experienced oral surgeons at the faculty teaching hospital.
I am proud to keep my knowledge and skills up-to-date by working closely with a wide range of highly experienced clinicians. I regularly attend workshops and courses to keep abreast of the latest developments in the dental profession.
It is my goal to help patients to take control of their oral health and prevent gum disease. This entirely treatable condition can have a widespread impact on oral health if left untreated, so I am proud to be able to help my patients to identify and stop the spread of gum disease.
If you’ve been putting off treatment because you are anxious or afraid, I encourage you to get in touch so we can work through your dental phobia together.
The most common condition for gum disease is known as gingivitis. If left untreated, it can result in a more serious condition called periodontal disease. As the gums recede, the underlying structures that hold your teeth in place are more susceptible to bacteria and infection.
Once this condition spreads to the bone, it is highly likely to result in tooth loss. We encourage you to get in touch at the first sign of gum disease so we can take steps to stop and reverse the damage.
Regular trips to the dental hygienist is one of the simplest ways to avoid painful treatments and the prospect of tooth loss. Visit our oral hygiene page to learn more.
