We make a broad assessment of the condition of your gums and will note the position and extent of any gum recession. If there are any particular areas of concern we will undertake a more detailed analysis, also noting any bleeding, pus, tooth mobility (how much your tooth moves under light pressure).

We’ll be looking at how you take care of your teeth too and seeing how we can help you improve your techniques and so reduce any problems you may be having with your gums.
