What Is a Periodontist? 

A periodontist is a dentist with specialized training in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, as well as the placement and maintenance of dental implants. These specialists undergo three additional years of training beyond dental school and are experts in treating both common and complex gum issues. 

 

 When Is Periodontal Treatment Needed? 

You may be referred to a periodontist if you have: 

  • Advanced or chronic gum disease 

  • Receding gums or bone loss 

  • Persistent inflammation or bleeding 

  • Complex medical conditions affecting oral health 

  • Dental implants that need to be placed or maintained 

  • Common periodontal treatments include: 

  • Scaling and root planing (deep cleaning below the gum line) 

  • Root surface debridement (removal of infected tissue) 

  • Gum surgery to address advanced disease 

  • Implant procedures and soft tissue grafting
