Periodontics/Dental Implants

Do I Need a Periodontist?

• If you notice swollen gums, bleeding or discomfort, you likely need a periodontist.
• 75% of adults over age 35 have gingivitis, a mild form of gum disease. If left untreated, bleeding gums and gingivitis can lead to a more serious form of gum disease, called periondontitis.
• Periodontists have special expertise in gum disease, which is often the underlying cause of unhealthy or missing teeth. A periodontist also focuses on treating the structures that support your teeth, and in placing dental implants.

Periodontal Services at Eastman

1. Treatment of gum disease for bleeding gums and loose teeth. Traditional gum surgery or minimally invasive Laser Gum Surgery can be implemented. Also, Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) to gently remove bacteria through advanced polishing and ultrasonic technology is available.
2. Gum grafting for receding gums and long-looking teeth.
3. Dental implants to replace missing teeth with new ones that look like natural teeth. These will give you back good esthetics, functionality, and remain stable with good care.
4. Bone grafting surgery in case you are missing bone in areas where teeth were pulled out previously. Several bone grafting techniques and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) treatment, a natural regenerative method that enhances healing using your own blood, can be applied.
5. Treatment of implants that have disease, such as bleeding gums or pain/swelling.
6. Esthetic gum recontouring if the teeth look shorter than the ideal. Traditional gum surgery or minimally invasive Laser Gum Surgery can be implemented.
