Periodontal Care
Periodontal disease, or gum disease as it’s most often referred to, is a serious problem that impacts millions of people across the planet. It’s one of the leading causes of tooth loss and many people live in chronic pain because of it. At the same time, so few people are unaware of what is causing their problem and do not understand that they need the assistance of a periodontist.
A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in gum disease. One of their most commonly performed procedure is the dental implant. Anyone suffering from the symptoms of gum disease is advised to visit a periodontist. Though, it’s often best to discuss the symptoms with your general dentist who will then refer you to a periodontist if necessary.
Our office offers both of these under the same roof. You can visit your general dentist here and then receive a referral for a periodontist who works in the same building. This saves you the hassle of hunting down specialists when you could be receiving the treatment you need.
Endodontic Treatment
You may also receive a referral for an endodontic specialist depending on your symptoms. These are dentists with specializations relating to the structures located inside the teeth, such as the tooth pulp. Just like the periodontist, you can find endodontic specialists right here in our office.
There are a number of reasons you might receive a referral for endodontic services. The most common signs of endodontic problems include teeth that are sensitive to hot and cold temperatures, discoloration of the teeth, and inflammation of the gums.
These could be the symptoms of much larger problems that endodontic specialists often deal with. The symptoms could result from bacterial infections, tooth fractures, or minor injuries to the teeth. Endodontic specialists often perform root canals to eliminate the cause of the problems.
Other Dentistry
