Nashville Periodontal Group
Dental implants can improve your oral health, allowing you to eat, speak, and live normally! If you suffer from sensitivity to hot or cold or if too much of your tooth root shows, we can fix your gum recession. Implants allow you to enjoy eating, speaking and living again without messy denture pastes or creams!

Periodontists are dentists with three years of extended training beyond dental school, preparing them in treating gum disease or periodontal disease and placing dental implants. As periodontists, the doctors at Nashville Periodontal Group specialize in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease; they are also experts in the treatment of oral inflammation.
Services
The Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP(R)), the laser gum surgery used at Nashville Periodontal Group, is one of the highest quality treatments on the dental market today and offers a number of benefits over traditional treatment. The procedure is relatively painless and minimally invasive.
Many people suffer from periodontal disease yet only a small fraction of them actually seek treatment. This is partly because periodontal disease is not noticeable until it has taken a severe toll on your gum health. This can be dangerous. Maintaining proper gum health is important because without it, you risk damaging or possibly losing your teeth.
The daily monotonous task of brushing and flossing your teeth has never been more important in order to avoid gum disease and reduce the risks gum disease places on your overall health. It has been estimated that 75% of Americans have some form of gum disease which can be linked to serious health complications and causes dental problems that are avoidable.
There are millions of germs that live in your mouth. If you suffer from gum disease, you have open wounds in your gums that allow the bacteria to enter directly into your blood stream and circulate throughout your body. Nashville Periodontal Group is comprised of a team of dedicated periodontists who's combined experience and knowledge ensures the very best care for their patients.
Recent studies have linked good oral hygiene with good overall health. Having a healthy mouth can reduce your risk for many serious diseases, including heart disease and pancreatic cancer in Nashville, TN. The inflammation that is caused by gingivitis and periodontal disease in Nashville, TN has been linked to these diseases.

Dr Will Akin has done 3 implants for me and he is remarkable. I was very nervous for each procedure and his humor and kind heartedness put me at ease so much that I looked forward to my visit. He's very skilled and is young enough to know the latest technology but experienced enough to know exactly what to do. Most recently he immediately got me in to help correct an issue since my regular dentist was unable to get me in. Love Dr Will.
