Golden Triangle Periodontal

If you are looking for a periodontist in the Columbus, MS, area, you have come to the right place! Here at Golden Triangle Periodontal Center, we are dedicated to providing top-quality periodontal care to those affected by gum disease and other periodontal issues. We understand the importance of a healthy smile and are committed to helping you maintain one. Dr. John W. Starr, who has been practicing since 1984, leads our team of periodontal professionals. We utilize state-of-the-art technology, such as Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP), to enhance our services.

Our Services

In addition to treating gum disease, our services include dental procedures such as the placement of dental implants, crown lengthening, and bone grafting. Dental implants are a popular option for replacing missing teeth, and Dr. Starr has performed thousands of implant surgeries over the years. With dental implants, you can restore both the function and aesthetics of your smile. Crown lengthening is a procedure that exposes more of the natural tooth, making it easier to place a crown. Bone grafting is used to build up the jawbone, providing a solid foundation for dental implants.

Advanced Technology and Expertise

At Golden Triangle Periodontal Center, we believe that investing in the latest technologies and techniques is crucial for providing our patients with the best possible care. Our team regularly attends continuing education opportunities in order to stay up-to-date on the latest treatment methods. We are also committed to coordinating treatments with your general dentist in order to fully understand your unique circumstances. In some cases, we are able to extract a tooth and place an implant on the same day, streamlining your treatment process.

The Importance of Periodontal Health

The health of your gums is a crucial part of your overall oral health and is closely linked to your overall health. Periodontal disease, if left untreated, can lead to serious conditions such as heart attack, stroke, heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. By addressing issues affecting the health of your gums, you can reduce your risk for these conditions and improve your overall health.

The Prevalence of Periodontal Disease

According to the American Academy of Periodontology, nearly half of American adults have periodontal disease. This chronic inflammatory disease affects gum and bone tissue and can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Dr. Starr offers a number of treatment options to help treat gum disease if your dentist recommends the services of a periodontist.
