Why are Periodontists the best option for patients interested in dental implants?
Periodontists are dental specialist that receive comprehensive training in diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease (teeth/dental implants), soft tissue defects (gingival recession), and dental implants (surgical placement). I completed a 3 year residency at the University of Texas Houston after dental school at the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry. My focused training has given me the ability to treat simple to complex cases concerning these topics. As a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology, I have completed significant academic achievements beyond a mandatory level in periodontology. My patients can expect the highest level of diagnosis and treatment.

Patients have many options in choosing a doctor for their dental implant treatment. They can choose between Oral Surgeons, General Dentists, and Periodontists. What makes a Periodontist the best choice for dental implants, is that our academic training is focused on unbiased research. Peer reviewed journals (JOP) analyze the results and success of new cutting edge treatments concerning dental implants in a logical manner. This eliminates biased antidotal opinions that may lead to suboptimal results. A Periodontists background in periodontal disease and soft tissue and bone deficiency allows us to comprehend the entire picture concerning patient treatment. A complete understanding of these topics permits me to inform my patients about the best and most predictable treatment options. A team approach between a Periodontist and a restorative Dentist is a superior way for a patient to receive the best care. A Doctor that performs a limited amount of procedures in their comfort zone is focused on quality and not quantity.
A dental philosophy of “Jack of all trade and master of none” is never in the patients best interest.
