Periodontal Treatment and Care in Birmingham and the West Midlands
What is Periodontitis?
Periodontitis (gum disease), is a serious disease that damages the soft tissues and bone supporting the teeth. The condition is caused by bacteria in plaque (a sticky film that forms on and between the surfaces of the teeth). When plaque isn’t removed by through brushing and flossing it hardens into tartar, which can only be removed by professional cleaning. If left untreated periodontitis may cause tooth loss and other serious health complications.

Periodontitis Treatment
Options in Birmingham
Our highly qualified and experienced team offers a range of periodontal treatment options tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient.
Some of our periodontitis treatment options include:
Scaling and Root Planing
This treatment involves removing tartar from the teeth and smoothing the root surfaces to help the gums re-attach.
Antibiotics
Antibiotics may be prescribed to control bacterial infection in the gums. This may supplement scaling and root planing and prevent the progression of periodontitis.
Gum Surgery
Surgery may be necessary to reshape the gum and bones. Our team of experienced periodontists work with you to develop a tailored treatment plan.
Preventing Periodontitis and
Gum Infections
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
The most important step in preventing gum disease is to maintain good oral hygiene. This includes brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing at least once a day, using interdental brushes, and using a mouthwash to kill bacteria. Yous should also use a soft-bristled toothbrush and replace the head every three to four months.
Visit Your Dentist Regularly
Regular dental check-ups and professional cleans are essential to maintain good oral health. Your dentist can detect early signs of gum disease and provide treatment to prevent it from getting worse. At Shiraz Endodontic Practice, our dental professionals are trained to identify and treat gum disease.
Stop Smoking
Smoking is a major risk factor for gum disease. If you smoke, we suggest you quit as soon as possible to reduce your risk of developing gum disease.
Eat a Healthy Diet
A healthy diet is essential to maintain good oral health. Eating a balanced diet including plenty of fruit and vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy products. Avoid sugary and starchy foods, which can contribute to the development of gum disease.
Manage Stress
Stress can weaken your immune system, making it harder for your body to fight off infections like gum disease. To lower your risk, we suggest stress-reducing activities like exercise, meditation, or yoga.

What Our Patients Say
I just want to say thank you for making me feel at ease last Friday during my Re-Root Canal. I can’t actually believe how pain-free it was so thank you for getting me through it.

“I would like to apologise for getting a little emotional when I recently attended your practise. I was so grateful and appreciative for all your efforts and the hard work you carried out. You cannot imagine what it means to me. I would like to wish you and your team a very happy, peaceful and prosperous new year. Once again, many thanks and best wishes.”
Stephen Spencer
Overall great experience with Dr. Nida at Shiraz Endodontics. She was very knowledgeable, professional, and explained everything clearly. She did a thorough oral examination on my molar, and I felt at ease during the consultation. The practice itself is conveniently located within Solihull, with onsite car park. I highly recommend Dr. Nida to anyone who needs an endodontist in the Midlands.
