A periodontist trains for three years beyond dental school. Here is what that means for your visit.
Understanding your treatment plan — and getting your questions answered — is part of the treatment. We take the time to make visits comfortable and unhurried.
Periodontists prevent, diagnose and treat gum disease, place dental implants and manage oral inflammation. It is the whole of the specialty, not a sideline.
Your first visit reviews your full medical and dental history, gum health, bite and bone levels — so the plan fits you. Keeping your natural teeth comes first.
What we treat
01
Pocket depths, recession, tooth mobility and bone levels, with digital X-rays to plan from.
02
Scaling and root planing first; flap, pocket-reduction or regenerative surgery when disease has gone deeper.
03
An FDA-approved alternative to conventional gum surgery — no scalpel or sutures in many cases.
04
Connective tissue, free gingival and AlloDerm grafts to cover exposed roots and thicken thin tissue.
09
A titanium root that holds a single tooth or a bridge, and keeps the bone that missing teeth take with them.
11
A fixed arch on four or six implants — no adhesives, nothing to take out at night.
