OUR COMPREHENSIVE SERVICES

With years of experience and extensive training, we’re able to help patients look and feel their best.

Our services include:

  • Laser Periodontal Surgery – LANAP (Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure) involves the treatment of periodontal disease. It’s less invasive and painful than traditional gum surgery and allows patients to return to their routine much quicker due to minimal post-operative discomfort.
  • Dental Extractions – Extractions are used to remove a tooth that may have excessive decay, infection, or severe fracture. This is usually done when the tooth is considered hopeless, and there are no other treatment options.
  • Dental Implants – We use dental implants to replace a missing, broken, or chipped tooth. By replacing with a dental implant, it helps preserve the jawbone, which would normally shrink after the tooth was lost.
  • Gum Grafting – Tissue grafting is completed to treat gum recession. Recession occurs when the gum line recedes towards the root of the tooth, often exposing it and causing sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures.
  • Crown Lengthening  Crown lengthening involves the process of exposing more of the natural tooth to prepare for a restoration. This is helpful in cases of fractures or cavities below the gum line.
  • Sedation Dentistry – Many patients have anxiety about getting dental work done. We understand that dental work can be stressful and we offer a variety of sedation options for our patients, including nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and oral sedation.

Transform Your Smile with Dental Implants

If you're missing one or more teeth, dental implants can provide a permanent solution that looks and feels like your natural teeth. Our team specializes in dental implants, which are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants can restore your ability to chew and speak properly, prevent bone loss, and enhance your facial structure and appearance.

Benefits of dental implants include:

  • Improved oral health and hygiene
  • Permanent, long-lasting solution
  • Natural-looking and comfortable
  • Can support multiple teeth or dentures
  • Improved self-confidence and quality of life

At Progressive Periodontics, we use the latest technology and techniques to ensure a safe and successful dental implant procedure. Schedule a consultation with our experienced team to learn more about how dental implants can transform your smile.
