Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement by integrating titanium posts with jawbone. Ideal for patients with missing teeth due to decay, trauma, or gum disease. This solution offers natural function and aesthetics while preventing bone loss. Our practice uses advanced imaging for precise placement.
LANAP Laser Treatment
LANAP laser treatment addresses periodontal disease without traditional surgery. This FDA-cleared method targets bacteria while preserving healthy tissue. Patients benefit from faster healing, reduced discomfort, and bone regeneration around affected teeth through minimally invasive technology.
Pinhole Surgical Technique
This incision-free procedure corrects gum recession by repositioning existing tissue. Unlike traditional grafting, PST requires no sutures or donor tissue. Patients experience immediate cosmetic improvement and reduced tooth sensitivity with quicker recovery compared to conventional methods.
All-on-4 Implants
All-on-4 implants replace entire tooth arches using four strategically placed implants. This technique often eliminates the need for bone grafting. Patients receive fixed temporary teeth the same day as surgery, with permanent prosthetics after integration, restoring full function and aesthetics.
Periodontal Maintenance
Ongoing periodontal care prevents disease progression after initial treatment. Our maintenance includes deep cleanings, pocket monitoring, and personalized hygiene guidance. Regular visits help preserve treatment results and maintain overall oral health for patients with gum disease history.

Questions
What makes Friedberg Periodontics different from general dentists?
Our practice specializes in periodontics with three additional years of advanced training. We focus on complex gum disease treatment, dental implants, and cosmetic procedures using specialized technology unavailable in general practices.
Are dental implants worth the investment?
Implants preserve jawbone structure and function like natural teeth. While initially more expensive than dentures, they offer long-term value through durability, improved quality of life, and prevention of bone loss that affects facial appearance.
How does LANAP laser treatment work?
LANAP uses precise laser energy to remove diseased tissue and bacteria while preserving healthy structures. The treatment stimulates bone regeneration around teeth and typically requires fewer visits than traditional surgery with faster recovery.
What payment options are available?
We accept major insurance plans, offer in-house financing through CareCredit, and provide flexible payment arrangements. Our team works with patients to maximize benefits and create affordable treatment plans for all procedures.
Can gum recession be reversed?
While recession cannot be completely reversed, our Pinhole Surgical Technique effectively covers exposed roots to reduce sensitivity and improve aesthetics. This minimally invasive procedure offers better outcomes than traditional grafting with quicker healing times.
What to expect during implant recovery?
Most patients resume normal activities within a day. Initial healing takes 3-6 months for bone integration. Temporary teeth may be worn during healing. Post-operative instructions include soft diet, prescribed medications, and follow-up visits to ensure proper integration.
