ABOUT US
SPECIALIZED DENTISTRY, PERSONALIZED CARE
Welcome! We are a small specialty practice that prides itself on the highest quality of periodontal care, personalized to each patient. A Periodontist is a dental specialist in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting the gums and supporting structures of the teeth, and in the placement of dental implants.
We are passionate about our profession and fortunate to work with our referring dentists and their patients. We welcome new patients, always with the goal of helping them preserve their dentition in a state of health or helping reconstruct their smile with dental implants, contributing to their overall well-being.
If you are concerned about your periodontal health and would like a consultation, it would be our pleasure to be of service.
