Gentle and effective Gum Treatment in Brent Cross
Restoring your dental health and hygiene
At our relaxing dental practice in Brent Cross, your dentist will examine your teeth and gums in order to accurately diagnose your gum disease. Your treatment will then be planned and carried out accordingly. We’ll ensure your comfort and understanding at each step of your treatment.
Gingivitis
Periodontitis or ANUG
Plaque and tartar will be eradicated, followed by a root planing treatment at our dental surgery in Brent Cross to decrease inflammation and remove bacterial pockets. You’ll have a local anaesthetic injection to numb the area, and you may experience mild sensitivity and discomfort afterwards. Antibiotics and painkillers can be prescribed to encourage recovery.
Severe gum disease has to be treated with gum surgery in order to successfully kill bacteria and restore oral health. In this case our expert dentist in Brent Cross may refer you to a periodontist.

Excellent Dentist
Mark has been looking after me and my family for years. I can honestly say he’s the best dentist I’ve ever been to and have absolute faith in him and his entire friendly team. He’s always been caring and most importantly for me gentle and never does anything unnecessary (unlike previous dentist) His new surgery at Brent Cross is bright and modern with state of the art equipment. Wouldn’t go anywhere else
Caring profession ??
So disappointed and feel let down by Mark Becker, who despite being an excellent dentist, with state of the art equipment , showed himself to be insensitive and uncaring. My husband (79 years young) fell in his surgery and hit his side severely, in front of Mark. He had to ask for water, and wasn’t asked how he was getting home . The bruising and pain was SO bad he had to go for an X Ray to check if his ribs were broken , and he had bruising covering 1/3rd of his back for 2 weeks, and still has severe discomfort.. Only after 24 hours and 2 of my calls to his receptionists , did Mark finally phone back, with no apology for not enquiring how his patient was . Disgusted and neither of us will be returning to this practice.
Reliable and informative
Mark is always honest and Stacey is a great hygenist
FAQs
How Long Does Dental Implant Treatment Take?
Dental implant treatment typically takes between 3 to 6 months from start to finish. This allows time for the implant to properly fuse with the jawbone (a process called osseointegration). In some cases, if additional procedures like bone grafting are required, the overall timeline may be longer.
Are Dental Implants Painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. The implant placement is usually carried out under local anaesthetic, so you won’t feel pain during treatment. Afterward, mild soreness or swelling is normal for a few days and can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
How Long Do Dental Implants Last?
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution and can last 10–15 years or more with proper care. In many cases, they can last a lifetime. Maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular dental check-ups are key to ensuring their longevity.
Can Anyone Get Dental Implants?
Most adults with good general and oral health are suitable candidates for dental implants. However, sufficient bone density in the jaw is needed to support the implant. Patients with certain medical conditions or those who smoke heavily may require additional assessment or treatment before proceeding.
How Do I Look After My Implants?
Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. This includes brushing twice daily, flossing regularly, and attending routine dental visits. Good oral hygiene helps prevent complications such as gum disease, which can affect the success of the implant over time.
