Frequently Asked Questions About Our Clifton Park Area Periodontist Practice
A periodontist is a dental specialist who has completed additional training beyond dental school, focusing specifically on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease and the placement of dental implants. While general dentists provide comprehensive oral health care, periodontists have specialized expertise in treating gum disease, performing surgical procedures, and placing dental implants. At Capital Region Periodontics & Dental Implants, our periodontists have the advanced training and experience necessary to address complex periodontal issues and provide specialized care for Clifton Park patients.
The frequency of periodontal visits depends on your individual oral health needs. For patients with a history of gum disease, we typically recommend maintenance visits every 3-4 months to monitor gum health and prevent disease recurrence. For those with dental implants, regular check-ups are essential to ensure the longevity of your implants. During your initial consultation, we will assess your specific situation and recommend an appropriate schedule for ongoing care. Our office is conveniently located just a short drive from Clifton Park, making regular visits easily manageable for our patients.
Your first visit will include a comprehensive periodontal examination, which may involve detailed measurements of your gums, digital X-rays, and a discussion of your medical history and oral health concerns. Our periodontist will then discuss their findings with you, explain any diagnosed conditions, and present treatment options tailored to your needs. We prioritize patient education and will take the time to answer all your questions. The entire appointment typically takes about 60-90 minutes, allowing ample time for a thorough assessment and discussion of your treatment plan.
We believe that financial considerations should not be a barrier to receiving necessary periodontal care. Our practice accepts most major dental insurance plans and works with patients to maximize their benefits. For those without insurance or who require treatments not fully covered by insurance, we offer flexible financing options, including payment plans and third-party financing through CareCredit. Our administrative team is available to discuss financial arrangements and help you navigate the insurance process, ensuring that you can receive the care you need at a cost that fits your budget.
