We prioritise your comfort. Routine cleaning is generally painless, though mild sensitivity can occur. For deeper root surface cleaning under the gums, local anaesthetics are used to ensure the procedure is completely comfortable.
At Shine Dental, we offer a complete dental hygiene and periodontal care program tailored to protect your oral health, preserve your natural teeth, and prevent gum disease.
Routine home brushing and flossing are essential, but professional hygiene visits are vital for removing hardened plaque deposits (tartar/calculus) that cannot be brushed away at home. Left untreated, tartar build-up can lead to gingivitis and progress to Chronic Periodontitis—a serious condition that compromises the bone and tissue supporting your teeth.
Periodontal disease is a progressive bacterial infection affecting the bone, periodontal ligament, and soft tissues that hold your teeth firmly in place. Because gum disease often develops slowly and painlessly, many patients are unaware they have it until symptoms become severe.
Common Warning Signs of Gum Disease Include:
While Periodontal Disease cannot be completely cured, its progression can be effectively halted and managed through targeted clinical treatment and diligent home care.
For patients diagnosed with Chronic Periodontitis, Shine Dental provides an intensive treatment regimen known as Full-Mouth Disinfection. This advanced protocol aims to stabilise bone loss and prevent tooth loss.
Whether you require routine hygiene care or specialised periodontal therapy, our dedicated team ensures your experience is supportive and comfortable:

We prioritise your comfort. Routine cleaning is generally painless, though mild sensitivity can occur. For deeper root surface cleaning under the gums, local anaesthetics are used to ensure the procedure is completely comfortable.
For patients with healthy gums, a routine check every 6 months is usually recommended. If you are undergoing treatment or maintenance for Periodontal Disease, visits every 3 to 4 months are recommended to keep bacteria levels low and monitor stability.
Generally, bone loss caused by Chronic Periodontitis does not regenerate naturally. However, timely treatment and regular maintenance stop active bone destruction and preserve your remaining bone support so you can keep your natural teeth long-term.
We provide a holistic approach to your dental needs in a relaxed and stress free environment. Shine Dental specialises in modern dentistry and we have earned a reputation for considerate treatment of nervous patients. Call us for a consultation.
