Periodontics is the sub-specialty directly related to the foundation of your teeth. The gums and the bones supporting your teeth are essential in maintaining the stability and durability of every single tooth in the mouth. Over time, the foundation of your teeth can begin to show wear by receding which could greatly compromise how stable your teeth are.

A periodontist makes sure that if recession is happening, we can stop it before it does any permanent damage to the integrity of your teeth. Implants are the gold-standard in replacing missing teeth. It involves placing a titanium "root" inside of the mouth to house a new tooth - effectively replacing the tooth that was previously there.
