Meet Your Periodontist

Missing teeth change everything about your daily life.

You might avoid restaurants because certain foods are too hard to chew. Perhaps you keep your hand over your mouth when you smile or laugh. Speaking clearly becomes a challenge when you have empty spaces where teeth should be.

You deserve to live without planning every meal around what your teeth can handle. New teeth give you so much more than just a better look. You'll bite into crispy pizza, speak confidently in meetings, and laugh freely without feeling self-conscious.

Traditional dentures can slip out at embarrassing moments and make eating in public stressful. Bridges require us to grind down perfectly good teeth next to the missing one. Our implants work differently because we place a new tooth root directly into your jawbone. This creates a foundation that's actually stronger than your original teeth.

After you heal completely, no food will be off limits. Corn on the cob, nuts, sticky candy, and chewy meat will all be back on the table. The amazing thing is that your new teeth will feel so natural you'll forget you ever had problems.

We know dental visits can make people anxious, and we respect those feelings completely. We welcome you to visit our office, chat with our team, and ask every question on your mind. You'll never feel pressured to make decisions before you're completely comfortable.

Your first visit begins with a thorough check of your mouth and a conversation about what bothers you most. We'll explain exactly how we can solve your specific problems.

Every person has different needs, so we create individual treatment plans. We want to understand what matters most to you and address any concerns you have. Some patients need fast results. Others prefer to take things slowly or need help with payment options. We'll build a plan that works perfectly for your life.

Here are our most popular treatments that have helped patients fall in love with their smiles again:

• Implant Dentures - These special dentures click onto small posts in your jaw. You can remove them for cleaning, but they stay secure while you eat and speak.

• Full Arch Replacement - We place four to six implants that support an entire row of upper or lower teeth. All-on-X implants only require regular brushing and flossing.

• Single Tooth Replacement - Missing one tooth? We can place one implant with a custom crown that matches your other teeth perfectly. Nobody will know the difference.

• Teeth in a Day - Walk in with missing teeth and leave with a complete smile. You get temporary teeth with your implants, then permanent ones after healing.

• Complete Smile Makeover - For patients needing extensive work, we design full treatment plans to rebuild entire smiles using implants and other procedures.
