We treat the full spectrum of periodontal conditions for our Troy patients, from early-stage gingivitis to advanced periodontitis.

For Troy residents concerned about cosmetic aspects of their gums, we offer esthetic crown lengthening and gum recontouring procedures. Additionally, we provide comprehensive solutions for missing teeth through our advanced dental implant services, using the latest techniques in guided implant placement and bone regeneration to restore both function and appearance.

Troy residents should consider scheduling a consultation with our periodontist if they experience symptoms such as bleeding gums when brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, or changes in their bite. These could indicate developing periodontal disease that requires specialized care. 

Additionally, patients with certain systemic conditions like diabetes, heart disease or those taking medications that affect gum health would benefit from periodontal evaluation. Even without obvious symptoms, individuals with a family history of gum disease should consider preventive consultations. 

We also welcome referrals from general dentists in the Troy area who may recommend specialized periodontal care for their patients with complex needs or advanced conditions.

Troy patients preparing for periodontal surgery should follow several important steps. First, complete any prescribed pre-surgical treatments, including antibiotic regimens is recommended. Arrange for transportation to and from our office, as you shouldn't drive after receiving sedation. 

For your comfort, wear loose, comfortable clothing on the day of surgery and avoid wearing jewelry or makeup. We recommend having soft, nutritious foods available at home for the recovery period. Be sure to inform us of any changes in your health or medications since your last visit. It's also helpful to prepare your recovery space at home with necessities within easy reach.
