Perio Central

Perio Central, located at 9708 N Nevada St #102, Spokane, WA 99218, is a dedicated periodontal clinic led by Dr. Steven D. Aeschliman, DDS, PS. As a periodontist, Dr. Aeschliman specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, as well as the placement of dental implants and various cosmetic periodontal procedures. The clinic is committed to providing first-class periodontal treatment, offering personalized care plans tailored to individual patient needs. Services at Perio Central include both non-surgical and surgical approaches to periodontal therapy. Non-surgical treatments often involve scaling and root planing, which are deep cleaning procedures to remove plaque and calculus (tartar) from below the gum line, often utilizing advanced technology like ultrasonic scalers for efficient and comfortable cleaning. Adjunctive therapies such as direct targeted application of antimicrobials and host modulation may also be administered. For more advanced cases or specific needs, Perio Central provides surgical options, including dental implant placement for tooth replacement, and cosmetic periodontal procedures. These cosmetic procedures can address issues like receding gums (through gum grafting), excessive gum tissue (to improve a "gummy smile"), and uneven gum lines, helping patients achieve a more aesthetically pleasing smile. The clinic emphasizes a comfortable and professional environment, with a focus on patient education and transparent communication regarding treatment plans and costs. Perio Central is open Tuesday through Thursday from 7:00 AM - 3:30 PM and Friday from 7:00 AM - 2:00 PM, with Monday being closed. Their philosophy centers on the understanding that oral health is integral to overall health, striving to provide quality periodontal therapy in a comfortable setting.
