Your gums are like cushions for your teeth: they surround the teeth in the jaws and help to support them. Looking after your gums is just as important as looking after your teeth. Red and swollen gums that bleed when you brush them could be a sign of gum disease, also known as gingivitis.
When gingivitis is left untreated it can develop further into a type of infection known as periodontitis, which affects the entire area surrounding the tooth. A result of this could be losing your tooth so it's vital to avoid.
To keep your mouth in tip-top shape we recommend you come in for regular hygiene appointments and dental check-ups.
Dr Aziz is a fantastic implant dentist I was so anxious about the procedure but he made me relax by playing my favourite music I don't know why I was so worried" - Verified Patient
If I could give Dr Aziz 11 stars out of 10 I would. He is professional, caring, kind and informative he even gave me an check up while he was seeing me and doing my implant. I would definitely recommend him to everyone I even went on to have composite bonding to complete my smile done exceptionally well by Dr Aziz
I have been a patient at Benhill Dental Practice for many years and after the pandemic I was rather apprehensive as the practice had changed hands and the dentist I had had for years had retired. However, I need not have worried. I consider Dr Aziz to be an extremely good dentist and I would not hesitate to recommend him for general dentistry or implants
I have been coming to Benhill Dental Practice for a number of years' now and purely because of the treatment and service provided by Dr Alexandra Fivey and support staff.
My 9 year old daughter recently had to have two fillings and an extraction, Dr Alexandra handled her so well and we were so pleased with the outcome! I couldn't recommend her enough as a dentist! Thank you!
Alex and Rachel always provide a professional and thorough service for myself, my husband and daughter. We have been going to see them for the last few years and have always had a positive and personal experience. They are very patient and gentle with my 10 year old daughter, who before going, was not keen on seeing the dentist or hygienist! I would highly recommend!
Great, friendly dentists! Dr Alexandra and her colleagues go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and offer the best advice.
I would like to thank Dr Alexandra for making our first visit in the practice an amazing experience. My son who is 6 years old needed his tooth taken out after being inflamed for some time. Dr Alexandra is a BRILLIANT dentist, clearly with lots of experience and professionalism and someone who loves her job…We are very happy that we found Dr Alexandra! Thank you so much!!!
