Key services offered by Georgetown Periodontics & Implant Dentistry include: Implant Therapy: They provide solutions for single or multiple missing teeth, utilizing high-quality, name-brand dental implants that mimic natural teeth in look, feel, and function. Implants are considered a natural and conservative option for tooth replacement, aiding in increased chewing function, reduced bone loss, and improved self-esteem. Soft Tissue (Gum) Grafting: This procedure addresses gum recession caused by various factors like aggressive brushing, genetics, or trauma. Gum grafts are used to cover exposed roots, reduce sensitivity, and even out the gum line. Periodontal Disease Treatment: The clinic treats all stages of gum disease, from gingivitis (the mildest form) to advanced periodontitis. Treatments range from non-surgical options like scaling and root planing to various surgical procedures such as pocket reduction, regenerative procedures, dental crown lengthening, and gum graft surgery, depending on the severity of the condition. Other Minor Dental Surgeries: This includes procedures like crown lengthening, smile lifts (esthetic crown lengthening), and biopsies of oral pathology. Georgetown Periodontics & Implant Dentistry is committed to providing a safe, relaxing, and personalized care environment. Patients often highlight the friendly staff, low wait times, and Dr. King's ability to explain conditions thoroughly. The clinic emphasizes patient education to ensure informed decisions about oral health.
