A Periodontist for Mayfair, Direct on the Piccadilly Line

For a periodontist near Mayfair, take the Piccadilly line from Green Park to South Kensington: Behrens Dental Practice is two minutes from the station, at 21 Thurloe Place, about 15 minutes in all. Gum treatment is led by Dr. Ole Behrens, Dr. Lior Burg and Dr. Georgios Kolaitis, and includes Duo-Lase™, the laser protocol Dr. Behrens developed and offers only at our practice.

What makes the trip worthwhile is how we work: your treatment is planned from a test of what is causing your gum disease, and the same team can look after everything else, from implants to aesthetic work. Appointments until 8pm, Tuesday to Thursday, make it easier to come after work.

Why Make the Trip From Mayfair

Results You Can See for Yourself

When your treatment ends, we repeat the tests from your first visit and re-measure your gum pockets. Then we sit down with you and go through the results side by side, so you know exactly what has changed rather than having to take our word for it.

Advice Without the Upsell

We plan treatment from your test results, and we are happy to explain why each step is needed. One patient put it this way:

“I was worried that, as it is an upmarket clinic, they might try to upsell me other treatments but they haven't done that at all.”

Emma

Questions From Mayfair Patients

How do I choose a dentist near Mayfair for complex gum problems?

Look for a team that tests for the bacteria behind your gum disease before planning treatment, and that handles advanced cases as well as early ones. That is how we work, with Duo-Lase laser therapy where it suits. Gum care here is led by Dr. Ole Behrens, Dr. Lior Burg and Dr. Georgios Kolaitis.

How many visits does gum treatment take?

It depends on your diagnosis. Most Duo-Lase patients have around 10 laser sessions, up to three a week, after a clean by our hygienists, and sessions are usually carried out without anaesthetic. Some patients travel in from further afield and plan their visits around work, and we arrange appointments to suit.

How long does it take to travel from Mayfair to your practice?

The Piccadilly line runs direct from Green Park or Hyde Park Corner to South Kensington, which takes about 15 minutes. By car or taxi it is usually 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic. From South Kensington station we are a two-minute walk away, at 21 Thurloe Place, just off Cromwell Road.

Can I spread the cost of treatment such as dental implants?

Yes. You get a clear written estimate before anything begins, and the cost can be spread over time. 0% APR Finance Available. Finance subject to age, status and affordability. Our team will take you through the options at your consultation, and our finance page sets out the details.
