WHAT TYPE OF DENTIST IS A PERIODONTIST?
We are dental specialists who focus on treating gum disease, gingival recession, and replacing teeth with dental implants.
Our niche is saving teeth and restoring function when teeth are missing.
WHAT TYPES OF CONDITIONS DOES A PERIODONTIST TREAT?
With a focus on saving teeth and restoring function, our treatments include:
- Laser treatment of periodontal (gum) disease
- Replacing missing teeth with dental implants
- Gum recession (exposed roots) and gummy smiles (especially after orthodontics)
WHEN SHOULD I SEE A PERIODONTIST?
Patients should see a periodontist if there are any concerns related to the gums or the need for implants to replace teeth.
Bleeding gums or bad breath are often a warning sign of gum disease. These concerns can originate from a patient’s own observations or recommendations from their dentist or dental hygienist.
