Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth using titanium posts that integrate with the jawbone. Our practice offers single implants, implant-supported bridges, and All-on-4 treatments. Patients benefit from restored chewing function, improved aesthetics, and prevention of bone loss.
Chao Pinhole Technique
This minimally invasive procedure treats receding gums by repositioning existing tissue without grafts. Ideal for patients seeking natural-looking results with faster recovery. Promotes tissue regeneration using collagen to cover exposed roots and improve smile aesthetics.
Bone Regeneration
Restores jawbone volume lost to gum disease or tooth extraction using grafting materials and growth factors. Prevents facial collapse while creating stable foundations for implants. Combines membrane barriers and PRF to stimulate natural bone regeneration around teeth and implants.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Comprehensive management of gum disease through scaling, root planing, and surgical interventions. Addresses infection to prevent tooth loss while improving systemic health. Utilizes stem cell-like materials to regenerate damaged tissue and support structures.
Crown Lengthening
Exposes more tooth structure for restorative or cosmetic purposes by reshaping gum and bone tissue. Enhances smiles affected by 'gummy' appearances and prepares teeth for crowns. Achieves functional and aesthetic improvements with minimal post-operative discomfort.

Questions
Why was I referred to a periodontist?
Periodontists specialize in diagnosing and treating gum disease and placing dental implants. Referrals ensure specialized care for complex cases beyond general dentistry.
How much do dental implants cost?
Implants range from $2,100–$3,000 each. All-on-4 treatments cost $23,000–$35,000 per arch. Consultations include personalized cost estimates and financing options.
Do you offer sedation options?
Yes, we provide nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and anesthesiologist-administered sedation for patient comfort during procedures.
Will insurance cover periodontal treatment?
Most dental insurance covers periodontal procedures. Our team works with providers to maximize benefits and minimize out-of-pocket costs.
How long does bone regeneration take to heal?
Initial recovery takes 1-2 weeks. Full bone maturation occurs over 4-6 months, with most patients resuming normal activities the day after surgery.
What are the benefits of All-on-4 over dentures?
All-on-4 prevents bone loss, provides permanent teeth, eliminates adhesives, and allows natural eating and speaking compared to traditional removable dentures.
