Mr Cristina Jimenez

I graduated from Dentistry in Madrid in 2010. I moved to Scotland a year later and I have been working in general practice here since 2011. I combine work with the attendance of numerous national and international training programs. In 2017 I completed an MSc in Primary Dental Care with a special interest in Periodontology, at the University of Glasgow. I am also an active member of the British Society of Periodontology. I have a keen interest in the cause, treatment and prevention of gum disease. I aim on behaviour modification to improve patient-performed oral hygiene, addressing periodontal disease with a holistic approach, looking at periodontal disease and the patient as a whole. I provide special interest service for patients with advance periodontitis that are not responding well to primary care. I expertise in non-surgical periodontal treatment, and can provide more complex treatment including soft tissue surgery for crown lengthening and root coverage.
