Gum Disease

Gum disease is inflammation and infection of the tissues supporting the teeth. There are two main forms of gum disease: gingivitis and periodontitis. Gingivitis affects the gums alone and is usually reversible however periodontitis is more serious and affects the bone supporting the teeth.

What is the cause of gum disease? +

Gum disease is caused by plaque. Plaque is a biofilm of bacteria which forms on the surface of the teeth and gums. To prevent and treat gum disease, you need to make sure that you remove all the plaque from your teeth every day. This is usually done by brushing & flossing but your dentist may also recommend other techniques.

Are there other factors that contribute to gum disease? +

A truly superb dental practice, friendly, professional and very clean.
The team are wonderful and very helpful. The dentist I saw was Dr Hema Rajah, who was absolutely amazing and a true artist at dentistry.
A big thank you to Dr Hema Rajah, Sophie, Abbey and Lucie.
I can honestly highly recommend North Lane Dental Practice to anyone (especially nervous patients).

‘Changed my life’ From the second I walked into North lane I felt completely at ease. From the girls at reception to my incredible dentist Hema. I desperately wanted to improve my smile which has been an insecurity of mine since my teenage life and opted for an initial treatment of Invisalign. This in itself had the most incredible results leaving my teeth completely straight. After my final treatment of composite bonding to both top and bottom my teeth are absolutely perfect. I cannot thank North Lane dentist enough and would recommend anyone to choose them to change there smile forever. Thank you to the whole team

I had my composite veneers done nearly a year ago now, and this has completely boosted my confidence and my self esteem!!! Hems has been absolutely fantastic, she takes amazing care and takes deep thought into what your desired results are, and recommends what shape/shade would suit you best. I wouldn’t ever recommend anywhere else, it’s the best thing I have ever done. I am so confident now, and it’s made me love my smile

I have been looking for such a long time for a new dentist and for the right place to have my composite bonding done. The team here have been so helpful from the offset and I could not recommend them enough. If you are looking for a dental practise or for cosmetic dentistry then they certainly are the place to get in touch with.

I’ve been with North Lane dental practice since Sep 2020 and am very happy with them. I had a few fillings, root canal and always without any pain or discomfort during and after the procedure. If I needed an urgent appointment I was seen the next day. Dr Syed is always helpful and with each procedure takes the time to do it carefully and with the utmost care for the tooth. I feel that my teeth are very well cared for :-)

I hadn’t been to the dentist in 10+ years due to being scared but was made to feel very welcomed and at ease at Northlane Dental Practise. Very knowledgable also & I’m looking forward to my teeth whitening process

I would highly recommend this dental practice. Great service & lovely staff, very helpful. I was looking for a dentist that would look after patients with dental implants, because surprisingly enough, I phoned quite a few in the area & it was a ‘No’. As a family we have been coming to this practice for a few years now & we are very happy with the service & treatments provided.

The whole team are warm and friendly which makes very nervous patients like myself feel more at ease. The advice and treatment I have received means I can now smile with confidence! I would highly recommend this Dental Practice especially if you are feeling worried or nervous. I don’t think anyone could feel more apprehensive that I did on my first visit – but not any more, I feel confident and know that I am in good hands!

I have been a patient of Dr Rajah for several years and would recommend her as an excellent dentist. Highly proficient but also takes care to discuss oral care and treatment options when necessary.
