A periodontist is a dentist that has had years of advanced training in the treatment and management of the supporting structures of the teeth. The goal of a periodontist is to help prevent and treat periodontal (gum disease), to help maintain teeth that have lost their support due to disease, and to help rebuild the bone and gum tissue so that missing teeth can be replaced.
Offering services in Newington, Portsmouth, and the surrounding area. Research studies have shown a strong association between periodontal disease (gum disease) and other chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, pregnancy complications and respiratory disease.

Dr. Jeffrey Ian Saltz is originally from Portland, Maine. He attended Case Western Reserve University's advanced, Six-Year Dental Program, graduating from dental school in 1988.

A periodontist maintains a specialty of dentistry that specializes in the supporting structures of teeth, as well as diseases and conditions that affect them. A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease (gum disease). Periodontists also specialize in the placement of dental implants and are experts in the treatment of oral inflammation.
Oral hygiene is an essential part of your overall health and well being. A daily routine will include brushing, flossing, and potentially mouth wash. Never assume brushing alone would fully cover an oral hygiene routine. For the best oral health result ask Dr. Saltz or Wilson, or your general dentist what they would recommend as a daily oral hygiene practice.

Warning: I was treated very badly at this business. They canceled a duly-scheduled appointment despite being less than 5 minutes late. Complaining about that treatment ended up getting canceled as a patient. They are enforcing that cancellation by filing a report with the police that I am to be treated as a "criminal trespasser" if set foot on the property. So I would be very wary about patronizing this business.

A Review of a Visit to Jeffrey Saltz by Jayne Petersen
I recently saw Dr. Saltz as he was referred by my dentist to treat a cyst between two of my teeth. He told me there would not be any additional charge for the two X-rays that were taken, presumably to see the cyst.
He then said said that I would need to have all of my gums scraped and the cyst would resolve itself. I have seen a periodontist for years in New York and knew that his diagnosis was a gross exaggeration.
I decided to give some thought to this diagnosis and went to the desk to set up appointments
His secretary informed me that

I've been a patient of Dr. Jeffrey Saltz for over 25 years. In that time, I have found him to be extremely professional, exceptionally knowledgeable and a totally nice, caring, kind human being besides. I also recently had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Wilson and I found her to be the same caliber as Dr. Saltz. Recommend highly.
