Gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists is a targeted dental procedure designed to cleanse the spaces between teeth and beneath the gum line, effectively removing plaque, bacteria, and debris that regular brushing and flossing may miss. This treatment is particularly beneficial for individuals with periodontal disease, dental implants, or orthodontic appliances, as it helps reduce gum inflammation and promotes overall oral health. Our process begins with a comprehensive consultation and assessment to evaluate your specific oral health needs. Based on this evaluation, we develop a customised gum irrigation treatment plan tailored to your condition. The procedure itself involves using advanced irrigation technology to deliver a controlled stream of therapeutic solution, thoroughly cleansing periodontal pockets and interdental spaces. Following the treatment, we provide detailed aftercare guidance to ensure optimal healing and long-term maintenance of your gum health.

Gum irrigation is a dental procedure that uses a specialised handheld device called a pocket or oral irrigator to remove small amounts of plaque and bacteria from between the teeth and below the gumline. At London Dental Specialists, our professionals use this technique to clean areas that are difficult to reach with standard brushing and flossing, helping to prevent gum disease and maintain optimal oral health.
Most patients with minimal gum pocket depths experience little to no discomfort during gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists. However, sensitivity levels vary between individuals. For patients with deeper pockets or more advanced gum disease, we offer appropriate anaesthetics to ensure a comfortable experience. Our specialists prioritise your comfort throughout the procedure and will discuss pain management options beforehand.
Professional gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists differs from home water flossers in several key ways:
The frequency of gum irrigation depends on your individual oral health needs. For patients with active gum disease, London Dental Specialists may recommend irrigation as part of initial therapy and maintenance visits every 3-4 months. For those with healthy gums, irrigation might be included in your regular 6-month check-ups. Our specialists will create a personalised recommendation based on your specific condition during your consultation.
Gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists offers numerous benefits, including:
After gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists, we recommend waiting at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking. When you do resume eating, choose soft, non-spicy foods for the first 24 hours. Avoid hot beverages, alcohol, and smoking for at least 24 hours as these can irritate treated gum tissues. Our team will provide you with specific post-treatment instructions tailored to your situation.
Gum irrigation is generally safe and beneficial for most patients at London Dental Specialists. However, modifications may be necessary for patients with certain medical conditions or those taking specific medications. During your consultation, our specialists will review your medical history to ensure the procedure is appropriate for you. Patients with artificial heart valves or compromised immune systems may require antibiotic prophylaxis before treatment.
Gum irrigation at London Dental Specialists helps combat gum disease by physically removing bacteria and debris from below the gumline that brushing and flossing cannot reach. The procedure disrupts bacterial colonies, reduces inflammation, and can deliver antimicrobial agents directly to affected areas. When performed regularly as part of a comprehensive periodontal treatment plan, gum irrigation helps control gum disease progression and promotes healing of damaged tissues.
