Periodontists

Periodontists are dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, as well as the placement of dental implants, and the latest technologies are reshaping how they care for patients. Laser-assisted periodontal therapy, for example, allows for the removal of infected tissue and bacteria with minimal discomfort and faster healing compared to traditional surgical methods. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides high-resolution, 3D imaging of bone levels and soft tissue, which is critical for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. Digital charting and probing tools also offer more precise measurement of periodontal pockets, allowing for early intervention and improved monitoring over time.

The use of regenerative materials, such as growth factors and guided tissue regeneration membranes, has significantly improved outcomes in gum and bone regeneration procedures. Additionally, 3D printing technology is being used to create custom surgical guides and scaffolds for complex cases. With advanced imaging and planning software, dental implants can be placed with exceptional precision, reducing surgery time and enhancing long-term success. These innovations are making periodontal care less invasive, more predictable, and more effective. As a result, patients benefit from faster recovery, greater comfort, and longer-lasting oral health, all while receiving care that is increasingly personalized and high-tech.
