Why See a Periodontist?

For those who have periodontal disease or complex dental needs, there are advantages to seeing a periodontist. The patient might think that he or she would be referred by the dentist.

Smart patients today are seeking out a periodontist on their own because of their high level of training as well as the technology that allows many to save teeth that might otherwise be extracted. In this five minute video, you will see the advantages of making the periodontist an integral part of your dental team, particularly if you have periodontal disease or major dental problems. https://youtu.be/c3LePqQs9V4
