Why Your Gums Matter More Than You Think
Bleeding gums & loose teeth are more than just a dental issue – they can signal deeper health risks. Gum disease has proven links to diabetes, heart disease, and even Alzheimer’s, with shared inflammation and bacteria playing a major role. Research shows that treating your gums may help control blood sugar, reduce heart attack risk, and protect brain function. At Harley Street Dental Studio, we also assess tooth mobility to catch early signs of gum-related damage. Resolving bleeding gums now could protect far more than your smile.

Non-Surgical Gum Treatment
Not all gum problems require surgery. Our non-surgical periodontal therapy is designed to treat gum disease in a comfortable and effective way. Using targeted techniques, we remove harmful bacterial deposits and smooth the root surfaces to help gums reattach. Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic for a pain-free experience, with tailored advice on lifestyle and oral care to support long-term results.
Advanced Procedures for Severe Gum Disease
For more advanced cases, we offer cutting-edge procedures designed to restore gum and bone health. Regenerative treatment stimulates natural bone growth and restores lost tissue, helping preserve your natural teeth long-term. Microsurgical gum grafting uses minimally invasive techniques and precision tools to rebuild receding gums with faster recovery and better results. Guided tissue regeneration rebuilds the support structures around your teeth using advanced biomaterials, offering predictable outcomes and saving teeth that might otherwise be lost.

Sina’s attention to detail, insight and skill is next to none. Part of me feels a written review won’t do the experience justice, however I’ll try. I went into Sina with a good idea of what I wanted “ a natural looking straight smile which retained some character from my natural smile”. Sina clearly listed out the options, the pluses and negatives of each and provided a great deal of education along the way. I went for an exercise of patience and chose to correct the bite and straighten the teeth with Invisalign which was pain free and simple and then went onto perfect the smile with three perfected veneers and a crown. This is where Sina’s attention to detail kicked in. We came up with a plan together and didn’t miss a beat. I went into have a trial smile which I made changes too, things like making the teeth shorter, less round and wider were all things that where taking into account until it was perfect. At no point did I worry about a thing and constantly felt like I was in the best hands around. I couldn’t recommended Sina enough – if you’re planning on getting your smile perfect you’d be wasting your time looking elsewhere!Thanks again Sina.

My wife and I were on holiday in London from the states and I cracked my tooth one evening. Our hotel recommended that we come here. They fixed my tooth straight away, great manners and looked very modern. We were so impressed by the treatment that my wife came back a few days later for whitening treatment.

Common Questions About Gum Disease Treatment
How do I know if I have gum disease?
Common signs include bleeding when brushing, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, or loose teeth. However, gum disease can be silent, which is why professional assessment is crucial.
Are bleeding gums really that serious?
Yes. Bleeding gums indicate active infection that can spread throughout your body. Extensive research shows links between gum disease and diabetes, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, and pregnancy complications. The bacteria and inflammation in your gums can affect your entire body.
How quickly do I need treatment for loose teeth?
Immediately. Every day of delay means more bone loss and reduced chances of saving your teeth. We offer emergency assessments for loose teeth.
Can severely loose teeth really be saved?
Yes, even Grade 3 mobility can often be treated successfully with advanced techniques. Dr Marruganti specialises in cases others consider hopeless.
Will the treatment hurt?
Modern techniques make treatment much more comfortable than traditional methods. We use effective numbing and most patients report minimal discomfort, with minimal downtime afterwards. Dr Marruganti specialises in gentle, patient-focused care.
Can gum disease be cured?
Gingivitis (early stage) can be completely reversed. More advanced stages can be controlled and managed effectively with proper treatment and maintenance.
