Jumes, a highly experienced and Board Certified Periodontist. Dr. Jumes received his dental education at Marquette University and completed his periodontal specialty residency at Northwestern University. He has also served as a part-time instructor at Marquette University Dental School and is a past president of both the Outagamie Dental Society and the Midwest Society of Periodontology. Valley Periodontics specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, including gingivitis, periodontitis, and gingival recession. Their services encompass a wide range of procedures designed to restore and maintain optimal oral health. Key services offered include: Dental Implants: Valley Periodontics is a leader in dental implant procedures, handling all phases of the tooth replacement process in-office, from extraction to final restoration. This includes addressing cases where bone grafting is necessary due to insufficient jawbone mass. Gum Grafts (Connective Tissue Grafts): For patients experiencing gum recession that exposes tooth roots or causes cosmetic concerns, they perform connective tissue grafts to cover exposed roots and create a healthy, aesthetically pleasing gum line. Bone Grafts: These procedures are performed to rebuild jawbone mass that may have been lost due to tooth extraction or periodontal disease, providing a stable foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments. Periodontal Disease Treatment: The clinic offers both conservative and surgical approaches to treating gum disease, emphasizing non-surgical therapies in the early stages and utilizing advanced techniques for more severe cases. Cosmetic Periodontal Procedures: Beyond treating disease, Valley Periodontics also provides procedures to aesthetically enhance a patient's smile. The clinic prides itself on a patient-centered approach, aiming to make visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible. They emphasize clear communication with patients and work collaboratively with referring dentists to ensure comprehensive and effective care. Valley Periodontics is equipped with modern technology, including a hospital-grade UV light sterilization air purification system, and offers 24-hour emergency periodontal and dental care. Their dedicated staff is committed to meeting patients' clinical, periodontal, and administrative needs efficiently.
