Specialist Gum Care for Patients in Dandenong and Surrounding Areas


If you are looking for a periodontist in Dandenong, you may already be dealing with bleeding gums, gum recession, loose teeth, missing teeth, or concerns about dental implants. These issues can affect more than your smile. They can impact comfort, confidence, chewing, oral health, and your ability to enjoy everyday life.


At Perio Health Specialists, we provide specialist periodontal care from our clinic at 77 Stud Road, Dandenong. Led by specialist periodontist Dr Ruchi Agarwal, our clinic focuses on gum health, dental implants, and advanced periodontal treatments designed to support long term oral health.

Whether you have been referred by your dentist or are seeking advice directly, our team can assess your gum and bone health, explain your options clearly, and recommend treatment based on your individual needs. No referral is required.


What Does a Periodontist Do?


A periodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the gums, bone, and supporting structures that hold your teeth in place. While a general dentist looks after your overall oral health, a periodontist manages more complex gum-related concerns and implant-related treatment.


You may benefit from seeing a periodontist if you have:

  • Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
  • Swollen, red, or tender gums
  • Gum recession or teeth that look longer
  • Loose teeth or changes in your bite
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Bone loss around teeth
  • Missing teeth and interest in dental implants
  • Concerns around existing implants


Early assessment is important because many gum problems can progress quietly. With the right treatment plan, it may be possible to stabilise your condition, improve comfort, and protect your natural teeth for longer.


Gum Disease Treatment in Dandenong


Gum disease is one of the most common reasons patients visit a periodontist. It often starts with bleeding gums or inflammation, but if left untreated, it can affect the bone that supports your teeth.


At Perio Health Specialists, gum disease treatment begins with a detailed assessment. This helps identify the stage of the condition and what type of care is required. Treatment may involve deep cleaning, supportive periodontal therapy, regenerative periodontal surgery, or other advanced periodontal procedures depending on your needs.


The goal is not only to treat the symptoms, but to manage the underlying cause and help you maintain healthier gums over time.


Dental Implants in Dandenong


Dental implants can be a reliable option for replacing missing teeth. They are designed to provide a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or other final restoration, helping restore function and appearance.


A successful implant outcome starts with careful planning. Your gum health, bone levels, bite, medical history, and oral hygiene all need to be considered before treatment begins. In some cases, additional procedures such as bone grafting or a sinus lift may be required to create a stronger foundation for implant placement.


At Perio Health Specialists, we focus on the specialist surgical and periodontal aspects of implant care. We can also work closely with your general dentist to support a coordinated treatment journey.


Gum Recession and Soft Tissue Grafting


Gum recession occurs when the gum tissue moves away from the tooth, exposing more of the tooth or root surface. This can lead to sensitivity, aesthetic concerns, and a higher risk of further gum problems.


Soft tissue grafting may be recommended in suitable cases to help improve gum coverage, protect exposed roots, and support healthier gum architecture. A specialist assessment is the best way to understand whether this treatment is right for your situation
