What is Periodontology?
Periodontology is the dental specialty focused exclusively on the inflammatory disease that destroys the gums and other supporting structures around the teeth. Our periodontists are experts in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of periodontal disease, and in the surgical placement of dental implants.
