Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a chronic condition that affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth. Caused by plaque buildup, it progresses from inflammation (gingivitis) to deep infection (periodontitis), which can result in tooth mobility and loss if left untreated. Symptoms often include bleeding gums, bad breath, gum recession, and loose teeth.
At Bandlish & Auplish, we specialise in the diagnosis, management and treatment of gum disease at all stages. Whether you’ve been referred by your dentist or are seeking specialist support directly, our Harley Street periodontal care is designed to restore oral health, prevent progression, and protect your natural teeth for the long term.
Your care is led by Dr Gita Auplish, a GDC-registered specialist periodontist with over two decades of experience. As one of the few female specialists in Harley Street, Gita offers a uniquely personal and precise approach to gum care.
Treatment begins with a detailed consultation and full periodontal assessment. This includes gum measurements, X-rays, and a personalised discussion of your symptoms, risk factors and oral hygiene habits.
For most patients, treatment begins with non-surgical therapy, including deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove infection-causing bacteria beneath the gums. This is performed under local anaesthetic for comfort and is paired with tailored hygiene guidance for home care.
If gum disease is advanced or not responding to initial therapy, surgical treatment options may be advised. These include regeneration of lost bone, reduction of deep gum pockets, and gum grafting to correct recession. All treatments are delivered by Dr Auplish using the latest minimally invasive techniques and supported by our in-house hygiene team.
Dr Gita Auplish is a Consultant and Specialist Periodontist and one of the leading voices in periodontal care in London. As a trusted referral point for general dentists across the region, she is known for her precision, ethics and calm, patient-first approach.
Many of our patients are referred to Gita for complex periodontal or implant cases, but you are equally welcome to self-refer if you’re concerned about gum health. Our Harley Street clinic is designed to support nervous or long-avoiding patients through expert-led, pain-minimised care.
We also collaborate closely with our in-house multi-specialist team. If your case requires additional treatment—for example, implant placement, crown restoration or surgical intervention—you’ll be seamlessly supported within the practice by clinicians you can trust.
If you are a general dentist looking for a specialist periodontist in Harley Street for advanced case management or peri-implantitis treatment, we’d be delighted to work with you. Dr Auplish is trusted by referring dentists across London for her clear communication, timely reporting and collaborative approach to care.
