Common questions about periodontists
What does a periodontist do?
A periodontist specializes in the gums and the bone that supports your teeth. After dental school they complete three additional years of training in treating gum disease, performing gum grafts and bone grafts, and placing dental implants. They handle everything from deep cleanings for gingivitis to surgery for advanced periodontitis.
When should I see a periodontist?
See a periodontist if your gums bleed easily, look red or swollen, are pulling away from your teeth, or if you have persistent bad breath or loose teeth. Your general dentist may also refer you when gum pockets get too deep for a regular cleaning, or when you’re considering a dental implant to replace a missing tooth.
How do I book a periodontist appointment?
You can usually self-refer for gum concerns — call a practice from the list above, or book online at offices marked "on Intake.Dental." Intake-verified offices take your health history through digital forms before your visit, and your free Patient Passport keeps your perio charting and treatment records with you across every office you see.
