I can't recommend the 53 team enough. I used to be so scared of visiting the dentist but I've been with them for at least 10 years and I now look forward to the visits.Bhavin is fantastic and is not wrong when he jokingly describes his fillings as 'works of art'; Marcia is so welcoming and always makes laugh in the Hygienist's chair; and I've just spent a 18 months under the care of the brilliant Arti for orthodontic work. They are all genuine, lovely people, who really care about the health of my gums and teeth. I don't think you'll find a better team.5x huge gold stars, 100% recommended.

Arti has been great through my Invisalign process - answering my (lengthy and frequent) questions and providing a lot of encouragement. You can really tell that she genuinely wants you to achieve the best results possible and takes the time to explain the process in a manner that is reassuring and confirms that you are in capable hands. Now that the process is completed I will miss her warmth and humour at our regular check-ups.

10/10 service. Arti has been extremely helpful throughout the Invisalign process. I believe she genuinely cares for the outcome of her patients, made apparent by her work.

I loved working with Arti. She was utterly thorough and pushed me to take the treatment seriously and was clear about the implications.She motivated me to commit - I’m thrilled that I chose to go down this route rather than another dentist I spoke to. It’s likely that I would not have got into the process so deeply with another dentist. She also cares about a successful outcome passionately and that helps you get on board with it - she is driven and lives her work. Her bedside manner is warm and engaging and I enjoy her company very much.

I recently moved and was looking for a dentist closer to home. I came across 53 Wimpole Street and decided to give them a try. I can confidently say that Dr Patel and his team provided the best service and care I have ever experienced at a dental practice. He was extremely patient with answering all of my questions and made me feel at ease. I would highly recommended booking your next appointment with him!

We recently relocated from New York, and Bhavin and the team have been fantastic. Great service and great people, they made us feel totally at ease and we actually look forward to seeing them.

100% highly recommended!!! Fantastic experience. Best dentist, staff and hygienist ever! All very clean and tidy, everyone incredibly kind and helpful. Everything was explained thoroughly and in detail, making everything much easier to understand. Had an hygiene session as well as a couple of fillings, and everything was executed perfectly and without any flaws. I couldn’t be more satisfied with this experience! Patel and Marcia are great!

Lovely clinic and backed by a lovely team. I have always felt very welcome at every visit by Janet. Lida, my orthodontist is brilliant. She really knows what she is talking about and she is very compassionate, friendly and professional. I would happily recommend this clinic. In fact i have done so, my sister gets her braces next week!

I was dreading my first visit to the Wimpole Street having had so many bad experiences in the past but I was blown away by the combination of kindness, explanation and professionalism. I was placed completely at ease (which is unusual for me).Delighted with the results (and the fact that the treatment was far more reasonable than I had expected), I can highly recommend that you give these guys a call.I can now smile with confidence!

I am not usually one to write a review regarding my dentist experience (usually I reserve this kind of feedback for hotels/holidays etc), but I am a very nervous patient, like many I suspect and after 25 years of being worried, concerned even embarrassed about showing a person my teeth, I finally decided to visit this practice (from a recommendation) and was very surprised. The dentists are great and very in tune with a patients concerns and quick to work out and put you at ease on any hang ups you have. I felt very relaxed and was given lots of options around what treatments I should think about and how these should be scheduled.Come to think about it the staff are all very professional but to me the most important thing is they are approachable/likeable. They treat you like you have been going there for years which is a great attribute.If your looking for a new dentist or looking to visit a dentist after a very long time I can thoroughly recommend this professional, friendly practice!

About Periodontics

Periodontics refers to the diagnosis and treatment of the oral cavity and supporting structures of the teeth, which are largely comprised of the gums. The health of the tissues around the roots of the teeth is of paramount importance for the long-term health of the dentition. The Periodontium is the name given to the gum, the bone surrounding the roots of the teeth and the periodontal ligament, which attaches the root to the bone.

In some susceptible patients, the Periodontium can become inflamed, damaged and destroyed by bacteria that live in the patient’s mouth. If no intervention is made, Periodontal disease, commonly known as Gum Disease can eventually cause tooth loss.

Why not call us today on 0207 935 6809 / 0207 935 0476 for an appointment; our friendly Dentists at 53 Wimpole Street, Sam Hassan, Bhavin Patel, Marcia Silva-Williams and Talie Christy are dedicated to supporting you in maintaining good oral health.

Early signs of gum disease that you may become aware of are bleeding of the gums, a bad odour from the teeth, mobility of the teeth and occasionally discomfort from the teeth.
Early diagnosis and treatment of this problem can limit the extent of the damage to the stability of the teeth and improve the gum and general health.

Early diagnosis and treatment of gum disease

Once a patient has been diagnosed with Periodontal Disease, the next step is discussing the treatment to cure gum disease effectively. If the problem is identified in the early stages, treatment will usually be a procedure called scaling and root planning. This requires removing the plaque and calculus pockets that have developed and is followed by a deep clean and smoothing of the root surface.

This simple course will help aid the teeth back to health. However, when a diagnosis is made at an advanced stage of periodontal disease, more detailed treatment is required. Advanced cases of Gum Disease may involve surgical action and/or medication subject to what is deemed the most appropriate treatment for each individual case.
