Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth, using titanium posts fused with the jawbone to support crowns or bridges. Our process includes 3D imaging, bone grafting if needed, and sedation options. Patients benefit from restored function, natural aesthetics, and long-term oral health improvements through our comprehensive implant protocols.
Laser Treatment
Laser periodontal treatment removes infected tissue and bacteria with precision, minimizing bleeding and promoting faster healing. We use PerioLase technology to target diseased areas without incisions, reducing recovery time. This method preserves healthy tissue and supports regeneration, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery for gum disease patients.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting restores receded gum tissue using autogenous or donor grafts, protecting tooth roots and improving aesthetics. Our microsurgical techniques ensure minimal discomfort and natural-looking results. Patients experience reduced sensitivity, enhanced smile appearance, and prevention of further periodontal damage through this specialized soft tissue regeneration procedure.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting rebuilds jawbone structure to support dental implants or address bone loss from periodontal disease. We use advanced biomaterials and growth factors to stimulate natural regeneration. This procedure ensures stable implant placement and preserves facial contours, providing critical foundation for restorative treatments with predictable, long-lasting outcomes.
Platelet Rich Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy concentrates growth factors from the patient's blood to enhance tissue repair and bone regeneration. Applied during surgical procedures, it reduces inflammation, speeds healing, and improves graft integration. This biological approach optimizes recovery while minimizing complications, making it a valuable adjunct to periodontal and implant treatments.

Questions
What is periodontal disease and how does it affect oral health?
Periodontal disease is a bacterial infection affecting gums and supporting bone structures. Left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and impact systemic health by increasing risks for heart and lung conditions through inflammatory responses.
What treatments are available for gum disease?
We offer scaling and root planing, laser therapy, gum grafting, and bone regeneration procedures. Treatment plans combine traditional methods with advanced technologies like PerioLase to address disease severity while preserving oral structures.
How do dental implants work and what are their benefits?
Dental implants replace missing teeth using titanium posts fused to the jawbone, supporting crowns or bridges. Benefits include improved chewing function, natural appearance, and prevention of bone loss compared to traditional dentures or bridges.
Do you offer sedation options for anxious patients?
Yes, we provide intravenous sedation and other anxiety-reduction techniques to ensure comfortable treatment experiences. Our team is certified in administering sedation while maintaining patient safety throughout procedures.
What payment and financing options are available?
We accept cash, checks, credit cards, and CareCredit financing. Our office works with most insurance providers to maximize coverage for periodontal treatments and helps patients navigate their specific benefit plans.
How do you use cone beam tomography in treatment planning?
Cone beam CT scans provide 3D imaging of jaw structures, enabling precise diagnosis of periodontal disease, implant placement planning, and evaluation of bone density to ensure optimal surgical outcomes and treatment accuracy.
