Cedar Rapids Periodontics & Dental Implants

Cedar Rapids Periodontics & Dental Implants is a dedicated dental clinic located at 1909 51st St NE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52402, specializing in periodontics and dental implant procedures. Their mission is to provide comprehensive care for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, as well as state-of-the-art solutions for missing teeth. The clinic offers a wide range of services designed to address various oral health needs. Key services include deep cleanings to combat periodontal disease, various types of bone grafting (such as horizontal bone widening and sinus grafting) to prepare sites for implant placement, and gum grafting to address thin or receding gum tissue and exposed root surfaces. They also perform periodontal surgery for advanced gum disease cases to ensure thorough cleaning and restore maintainable gum pockets. For tooth replacement, Cedar Rapids Periodontics & Dental Implants specializes in dental implants, which serve as a durable and natural-looking solution for single missing teeth, multiple teeth, or even full arches. They are adept at placing the titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for crowns or dentures. The clinic also handles procedures like crown lengthening, which can be done for restorative purposes (to expose more tooth structure for a crown) or for aesthetic reasons (to improve a "gummy" smile). Additionally, they offer minor oral surgery procedures like tooth extractions and frenectomy to address specific oral conditions. The practice emphasizes patient comfort and aims to maintain natural teeth for as long as possible. They are located conveniently just a block from Edgewood Road, between 42nd Street and Glass Road.
