Periodontics in Practice: Diagnosis and prognosis and treatment planning (open to Dentists, Hygienists & Therapists)

Hatem Algraffee is recognized as a specialist in Periodontics by the General Dental Council and attends Cirencester Dental Practice on 2 x Fridays per month and Stow-on-the-Wold Dental Practice on 2 x Thursdays per month.

He is very knowledgeable and experienced in the treatment of the “soft tissues” in the mouth. Your patient’s first consultation with Hatem will include a very thorough assessment of their gum health. Hatem will give invaluable advice regarding oral health care techniques and will explain clearly the causes as well as the solutions to any periodontal problems.

His treatments have a very high success rate and he frequently achieves positive results for patients who have had gum treatment with limited success elsewhere.

Like all his colleagues he is very careful to ensure that all his treatment is carried out painlessly, using very effective local anesthesia. He has a kind, gentle and encouraging manner, and his patients find his explanations and instructions easy to follow.

Hatem qualified from the Royal Dental Hospital in 1996, followed later by a four-year specialist training programme in periodontology and implantology at Guy’s Hospital and two master’s degrees from the University of London.

He also runs Periodontal Seminars for dentists and hygienists.
