Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Our practice offers single-tooth implants, implant-supported dentures, and All-on-4 solutions using advanced 3D imaging for precise placement. With over 45 years of combined experience, our periodontists ensure long-lasting results that mimic natural teeth in appearance and function. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, preserved jawbone density, and enhanced confidence through our comprehensive implant services.
Gum Disease Treatment
We provide comprehensive treatment for all stages of gum disease, from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis. Our approach includes scaling and root planing, antibiotic therapy, and laser periodontal therapy using LANAP technology. Our hygienists offer personalized home care education to maintain oral health between visits. With early intervention and ongoing periodontal maintenance, we help patients prevent tooth loss and reduce systemic health risks associated with untreated gum disease.
Chao Pinhole Surgical Technique
This minimally invasive procedure treats gum recession without traditional grafting or sutures. Using specialized instruments, our certified providers reposition existing gum tissue through small pinhole incisions. Patients experience faster recovery, minimal discomfort, and immediate aesthetic improvement. This technique effectively covers exposed tooth roots, reducing sensitivity and protecting against further dental damage while achieving natural-looking results.
All-on-4 Implants
Our All-on-4 treatment replaces an entire arch of missing teeth using just four strategically placed implants. This innovative approach allows immediate function with temporary teeth on the same day as surgery for qualified patients. The technique maximizes bone support while minimizing the need for bone grafting, offering a cost-effective solution with improved stability and chewing power compared to traditional dentures.
Sedation Dentistry
We offer oral and IV sedation options to help anxious patients receive necessary dental care comfortably. Our trained team monitors vital signs throughout treatment to ensure safety while providing a relaxed experience. Sedation dentistry benefits patients undergoing complex procedures, those with dental phobias, and individuals with sensitive gag reflexes, making comprehensive periodontal care accessible to all patients regardless of anxiety levels.

Questions
What makes dental implants different from other tooth replacement options?
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement that preserves jawbone density and functions like natural teeth without requiring support from adjacent teeth.
Will the dental implant procedure be painful?
Local anesthesia or sedation ensures minimal discomfort during procedures, with most patients reporting only pressure rather than pain during surgery.
How long does the entire dental implant process take?
Treatment timelines vary but typically take several months for proper osseointegration, though All-on-4 patients often receive temporary teeth the same day.
Are dental implants suitable for everyone?
Most patients qualify with healthy gums and sufficient bone density, though pre-treatments like bone grafting can prepare additional candidates for successful implant placement.
How do I care for dental implants after surgery?
Maintain implants through regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings while avoiding smoking to ensure long-term success and prevent peri-implantitis.
