‘The Periodontists’ was established initially under the name ‘Applecross Periodontics’ by Dr Jane McCarthy in 1999, with the aim of providing specialist periodontal and dental implant services in a convenient relaxed environment. Dr McCarthy continued to provide her well known excellent periodontal services since then, until she retired in late 2020. Dr Samy Francis worked alongside Dr McCarthy for a couple of years before becoming the new owner.
