As a periodontist, he specializes in the treatment and maintenance of the gums, bones and other tissues that support your teeth. Our work is crucial in maintaining good oral health and preventing the development of serious oral diseases, such as gum disease and tooth loss.

Periodontal disease is a common and chronic infection that can lead to the destruction of the gums, bones, and supporting tissues of your teeth. If left untreated, this disease can result in tooth loss, bone loss and even systemic health problems. This is why it is so important to receive regular periodontal evaluations and treatments.

As a periodontist, he performs a wide range of surgical procedures designed to address the specific needs of each patient. Some of the most common procedures he performs include deep cleanings, gum grafts, bone grafts, dental implant placement and flap surgeries. These procedures help to remove plaque and tartar, improve the health of your gums, and restore the strength and stability of your teeth and jaw.

In addition to these procedures, he also offers advanced treatments for gum disease, such as laser therapy, which can help to reduce inflammation, kill bacteria and promote healing. He also provides treatments for gum recession, which can lead to increased sensitivity and tooth decay.

At his practice, he strives to provide the highest quality care to every patient. He uses the latest techniques and technology to ensure that his patients receive the most effective treatments possible. He takes the time to listen to each patient’s concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan that meets their specific needs.
