Gum Disease

May 16th, 2010

We have seen in the last few weeks a number of patients attending our dental practice in Wakefield West Yorkshire, near Leeds, suffering with long standing gum disease.
These patients have been suffering with bleeding gums for many years, the gums are shrinking back and a few teeth are starting too become mobile.
Dr Hassan has spend many sessions getting the oral hygiene up to a very high standard and provided intensive gum treatment to remove the harmful bacteria. Many patients have returned to the practice to comment, how for the first time they are cleaning there teeth without the bleeding gums.

Dr Hassan has worked at the Leeds Dental Institute on the Periodontal referral clinic treating many complex gum disease patients.

Glaucoma Eye Test at Opticians, Wakefield

April 27th, 2010

Hello, my name is ***********. I had the OCT 3-D scan as part of my routine eye test, and it picked up my glaucoma.

The tests for glaucoma with the standard NHS eye test did not detect any problems, and I was shocked to find out that 40% of damage has to be done till glaucoma is detected with the NHS eye test!

I am so glad I had it done, I am receiving treatment for my glaucoma now and without that scan my retina would have continued to deteriorate for another year till I saw my Optician again. But now that my Optician has picked it up early, the damage will stop.

I would recommed OCT to everyone, it saved my sight.
