When people have special problems involving their gums, they often require intensive treatment provided by a periodontist. A Periodontist is a dentist with special training to help people with disorders of the tissues which support the teeth. The most common problems we solve include helping people with bleeding gums and eliminating bad breath, however cosmetic procedures which are used to cover exposed roots of teeth and improve a person's smile are also popular. Replacement of missing teeth and anchoring down dentures with dental implants are also services we provide. Many people do not realize that healthy teeth are not the only ingredient to complete dental health care.
Diseased gums can lead to the loss of perfectly healthy teeth.
Those who have suffered the loss of many or all of their natural teeth, or have a problem with ill-fitting dentures, may want to look into the many advantages of dental implants. The dental implant process may involve inserting an anti-rejecting titanium anchor into the bone structure, and after successful healing, a prosthetic partial bridge or crown is placed over this anchor. Another type of implant may be more suitable if the bone is insufficient. If you are experiencing any bleeding of the gums, or if denture problems have caused you discomfort or embarrassment, Dr. Silver can help. Our goal is to provide the right level of customer service to our patients in a comfortable caring environment.
