The jawbone and gums that support your teeth are just as important to your oral health, and periodontics is the specialist area of dentistry focused on caring for your smile’s foundation.
Several factors affect the health of your gums and jaws. Just like your teeth, a build-up of plaque bacteria will cause harm. If you have diabetes, are a smoker, suffer from stress or have a cardiovascular condition, you’re also at greater risk of developing gum problems.
Periodontal disease starts as inflammation in the gums but can progress, causing serious damage to the underlying bone tissue.
At Kissdental, periodontal treatments are led by Dr Alberto Li Greci who offers a range of periodontal treatments that reduce the risk of gum disease whilst preventing bone loss.
In our day-to-day dental routine, it’s easy to simply focus on fighting tooth decay. When you neglect your gums, you’re putting yourself at risk of gingivitis and periodontitis.
Periodontal disease is a dental infection affecting the gums and jaw bone. The infection starts as gingivitis, which causes sore, inflamed, and bleeding gums. You might see blood spots on your toothbrush, and your gums may appear brighter than usual. Gingivitis is easily treated by improving dental hygiene.
Untreated, gingivitis will become periodontitis. If you develop this more serious infection, the plaque that irritates your gums spreads down the gum margin toward the roots of your teeth. As this happens, pockets form between your teeth and gums, causing them to loosen. As bacteria penetrate deeper, your jawbone deteriorates, releasing the loose teeth.
It’s sometimes difficult to spot the early signs of gum disease. We’ll also look at the health of your gums during your regular dental checkups. However, if you’ve noticed a change in your gums, you should make an appointment to see Dr Li Greci and the Kissdental team.
We’ll assess your gums during your initial consultation and look for inflammation and bleeding. X-rays will help us get a clear picture of the underlying structure. To determine the extent of the disease, we’ll need to measure the depth of the periodontal pockets. Pockets wider than 4mm require treatment.
Dr Li Greci uses the latest in microscopy, dental lasers and molecular biological tools to carry out advanced endodontic assessment and treatment. He may recommend professional cleaning to remove any plaque below the gumline or root planing, which smooths the surface of the roots of your teeth to remove bacteria. More advanced periodontal disease may require minor surgical treatments like gum or bone grafts to restore damaged tissue.
However we treat your gums, we’ll always support you by discussing care techniques that prevent future problems— and you can be sure that perio treatment from Dr Li Greci and the Kissdental team will set you up for years of healthy smiles!
Had a filling and tooth extraction today. And Dr Uzair & his nurse make you comfortable and put you at ease. Will 100% recommend to everyone to give them a go.
I cannot recommend Kissdental Flixton highly enough. I had a complex implant 12 years ago by surgeon Dr Solanki – I was cared for every step of the way and the tooth was perfectly matched. Thanks
I’ve received a very professional service at kiss dental. I had fixed brace treatment (Damon braces) and bonding. I absolutely love the results. So pleased!! Really friendly dental and hygiene staff who explain everything very clearly. Also, excellent organisation from the admin / receptionist team who always try work around my work diary! I have a terrible memory so really appreciate the appointment reminders. I always feel welcomed and feel the service is really tailored and personalised. Thanks so much Kiss Dental!
Absolutely in love with my composite veneers. Very helpful staff! Couldn’t thank Dr Kush enough for my perfect smile! Since this day I still couldn’t stop smiling absolutely inlove!! Definitely recommend 100%
I had my teeth whitened and some bonding on a few of my my teeth to even out my smile and I was so happy with the results! Dr Sat, was amazing and really put me at ease. Super professional, friendly and very helpful. Providing advise and guidance when I needed it and giving me all my options. The reception staff were super lovely and made every visit a joy! I usually hate the dentist but I enjoyed every visit and I won’t be going anywhere else from now one!
Amazing service, Amazing results. I can’t thank Khush and his Team enough for giving me the confidence to smile again. I have a very real fear and phobia of The Dentist, I was made to feel comfortable and at ease throughout the whole process. Exceptional care, customer service and professionalism from the Reception Team to the man himself. Thank you so much Kissdental
I had 8 composite veneers done by Dr Khush. Everyone at Kiss dental was so lovely especially Khush who is not only amazing at his job but also such a lovely person🦷💗
Third place I had visited for a consultation, I was that impressed with how much time Satnam spent talking about different options and then the treatment plan which was just suited to what I wanted I decided to book it all with them. I was so grateful and impressed with the whole way I was dealt with not to forget the lovely Niall on the front desk for accommodating my treatment dates and talking through some of the treatments too – such lovely people and the place was very clean and modern – see you soon guys

I love my new smile! I highly recommend Dr Lowri. I have gotten so many compliments about my new veneers. She is so lovely and was there for me from the start of the journey till the end. Everyone is so lovely in there also. Thank you kiss dental ☺️
I cannot recommend Dr Kailesh Solanki enough! He is absolutely amazing! I have never liked my smile it was very gummy and looked uneven, but today I had crown lengthening surgery, the difference is unbelievable! Dr Kailesh Solanki made me feel very welcome and relaxed and talked me through every step! I can’t wait to be fully healed! By far the best dentist I’ve ever seen! Highly recommend to anybody! Thank you so so much Dr Kailesh Solanki! ❤️❤️❤️
I find the atmosphere lovely and Dr Solanki a very good I’ve had 2 implants and general dentistry and have been very pleased with the results
The service for my Invisalign from start to finish with Kiss Dental Altrincham, has been perfect. The staff are friendly, supportive, and amazing with any queries or concerns. Kat has been instrumental in planning my treatment, ensuring I saw the right consultant at the right time. I obtained my treatment through a Charity Auction, where Kiss Dental Altrincham donated their services. In doing this, the team helped under privileged children. They are truly wonderful. Thank you, Kailesh, Kat and Chloe. Amanda x
I cannot recommend KissDental enough! My experience with them has been absolutely amazing and still continues to be. All the staff are wonderful, Kat is always so welcoming. Dr Dashtgard did a great job and has given me a huge boost of confidence. Despite the 40-minute journey to get to Altrincham, I will be continuing with my regular appointments with Chloe and Omid, it is definitely worth it. My favourite dental practice ever!
I had the best experience with kiss dental I chose dr Callum Coombs and he did an amazing job with my composite veneers I couldn’t be happier. I for one have always been scared of the dentist but from start to finish the whole experience was nothing but 10/10. I would highly recommend. All the staff in the practice were Lovley and super welcoming. And everything I needed was always posted out to me and they were super accommodating as I live quite far from the practise.
Fantastic practice! I was greeted by Sarah, Gabby and Shelbie who were all very welcoming and made sure I was seen promptly. Reza and Caitlyn carried out the dental procedure diligently and efficiently. Great experience, highly recommend to those putting off their visit to the dentists!
