Specialist Periodontal Treatment
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. At Ham Dental, we provide advanced periodontal care to diagnose, treat, and manage gum disease, helping you maintain strong teeth, healthy gums, and long-term oral wellbeing.

Protecting More Than Just Your Smile
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health conditions and can often develop without obvious discomfort. Left untreated, it may lead to gum recession, bone loss, tooth mobility, and eventually tooth loss.
At Ham Dental, our periodontal treatments are designed to identify problems early, restore gum health, and help prevent future complications. Through personalised care and modern treatment techniques, we help patients maintain healthy gums and confident smiles for years to come.

Understanding the Warning Signs
Gum disease can affect both your oral health and overall wellbeing. Common signs include:
- Bleeding gums during brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Swollen, tender, or receding gums
- Loose teeth or changes in your bite
- Increased tooth sensitivity
When detected early, gum disease can often be managed effectively. Regular examinations and professional care play an important role in protecting your smile and preventing more advanced problems.

Personalised Care for Every Stage of Gum Disease
Our treatment approach is tailored to your individual needs and may include:
Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy
A deep cleaning treatment designed to remove plaque, tartar, and harmful bacteria from below the gum line, helping to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
Gum Grafting
For patients experiencing gum recession, gum grafting can help restore lost tissue, reduce sensitivity, and improve the appearance and health of the gums.
Regenerative Procedures
Where bone or supporting tissues have been damaged by advanced gum disease, regenerative treatments may help rebuild lost structures and improve long-term tooth stability.
Our periodontal team provides a range of specialist treatments designed to restore gum health and preserve natural teeth wherever possible.
Advanced Solutions for Complex Gum Problems
Gum Recession Treatment
Treating exposed tooth roots, reducing sensitivity, and restoring a healthier gumline.
Gingivitis Treatment
Managing early-stage gum disease before it progresses to more advanced periodontal conditions.
Gum Grafting
Rebuilding lost gum tissue to improve comfort, appearance, and long-term protection.
Regenerative Therapy
Encouraging the regeneration of lost bone and supporting tissues affected by advanced gum disease.
Take the First Step Towards Healthier Gums
Healthy gums are essential for maintaining a strong, confident smile. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms of gum disease or simply want a specialist assessment, our experienced team is here to help.

Having lived with crowded teeth for most of my life, I was delighted when Dr Abela told me that straightening them might well be possible. From his initial assessment to completing the treatment, he and his team have been professional and thorough, friendly and reassuring. He explained what was happening and what to expect. Two years on, my teeth are beautifully straight, they look and feel so much better and are easier to keep clean and healthy. I am delighted with the outcome. Thank you, Dr Abela.Posted on Google![]()

I’m very impressed by Dr. Stefan’s competency and professionalism. As a transfer patient who has received contradictory advice from other orthodontists, Dr. Stefan was able to deliver a persuasive opinion backed up by digestible evidence. He reviewed the materials I shared in advance of my appointment, and within minutes of examining me, he was able to provide a diagnosis and articulate the rationales to me. He listened to my concerns and promptly followed up with referrals. I feel heard and assured. The administrative staff is responsive, patient, and professional. I highly recommend this practice and Dr. Stefan.Posted on Google![]()

I spent most of my adult life being nervous about visiting the dentist. Then I discovered Newnham Dental Practice. Their confident expertise, gentle skills, absolute professionalism and lucid communication combined with genuine empathy with their patients mean that I am now very satisfied that my teeth and oral hygiene are in the best possible hands. Thank you.Posted on Google![]()

I cannot thank Dr. Milisha enough. She is so caring and thoughtful and I am really happy with the end result. Absolutely no pain felt at all through the process of providing me with 3 dental implants and not many dentists would phone you to check you are ok after undergoing the preparatory work. I just couldn't face living my life with a dental plate and now I have a smile to be proud of thanks to her first class treatment. Thank you so much.Posted on Google![]()
