As mentioned above, we consider your oral health along with your gut health. By offering nutritional counseling at our practice we can improve the overall health of our patients, even after they receive necessary periodontal care. Most periodontal patients have a related systemic disease with the same underlying inflammation. That’s why we treat the whole patient and consider more than just a single symptom.

Dental implants are traditionally made from titanium. These have the potential to lead to biocorrosion or microbiological corrosion causing a darkish grey area in the gumline and thus harming aesthetics. In other cases, patients may have an allergy to titanium leading to the body rejecting it and ultimately a failing dental implant. 

Some have found that titanium ions can leak from an implant over time and activate inflammatory cells causing chronic inflammation. Whatever the concern, we offer a metal-free alternative made from zirconia instead. A durable, tooth-colored material, many patients find zirconia dental implants more biocompatible and more aesthetically pleasing in the long-run.

Dental lasers have revolutionized dentistry and periodontics. Using a specific wavelength of light energy, our dental laser can penetrate soft tissues, only destroying the bacteria that cause disease while leaving healthy tissue unharmed. 

Some evidence suggests that this laser gum disease therapy technique also stimulates the cells that inspire healthy bone growth and regeneration after tissue has been lost to disease. With faster treatment times and faster healing times, it’s no wonder why so many of our patients prefer this minimally invasive alternative.
