Periodontal & Implant Specialist — Palm Harbor, FL
Comprehensive Periodontal & Implant Services
From treating early gum disease to full smile restoration with dental implants, our board-certified periodontist offers the full spectrum of specialist care — all under one roof in Palm Harbor.
General Periodontal Care
Learn moreThe foundation of a healthy smile starts with healthy gums. We diagnose and treat all stages of gum disease — from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis — using the most effective evidence-based protocols available.
Periodontal Maintenance
Ongoing 3–4 month supportive care visits to control bacterial infection, monitor gum pocket depths, and prevent disease recurrence after active treatment.
Scaling & Root Planing
A thorough deep cleaning that removes plaque, tartar, and calculus from below the gumline and smooths root surfaces so gum tissue can heal and reattach.
Osseous Surgery
Surgical reshaping of the bone and gum tissue to eliminate deep pockets where bacteria thrive — giving your teeth a cleaner, healthier foundation.
Gingivectomy
Removal of excess or diseased gum tissue to reduce pocket depth, eliminate infection, and restore a healthy gum contour around your teeth.
Gingival Flap Surgery
The gum tissue is gently folded back to allow direct access for thorough cleaning of root surfaces and bone reshaping where needed.
Cosmetic Gum Recession Treatment
Learn moreReceding gums expose sensitive root surfaces, affect your smile, and — if left untreated — lead to bone loss and tooth loss. We offer the most advanced, minimally invasive solutions available.
Pinhole® Surgical Technique
A scalpel-free, suture-free procedure that corrects gum recession through a tiny pinhole entry point — with minimal discomfort and same-day results across multiple teeth.
Connective Tissue Graft
A proven surgical technique that uses donor tissue to cover exposed roots, restore gum volume, and protect teeth from further recession and sensitivity.
Laser Periodontal Therapy
Learn moreAdvanced laser technology allows us to treat gum disease with remarkable precision — eliminating bacteria and diseased tissue from deep pockets while stimulating the body's natural healing response.
Laser Gum Treatment
Targets and removes infected tissue and oral bacteria from gum pockets with minimal discomfort, reduced bleeding, and faster healing than traditional surgery.
Dental Implants & Restoration
Learn moreWhen a tooth cannot be saved, dental implants are the gold standard replacement — functioning, feeling, and looking like natural teeth while preserving the jawbone.
Dental Implants
Titanium implant posts placed directly into the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or full arch restoration — the closest thing to a natural tooth root.
Bone Graft
Rebuilds lost bone volume in the jaw to create a strong foundation for implant placement — or to preserve the socket after an extraction.
Aesthetic & Restorative Procedures
Beyond treating disease, we offer procedures that improve the appearance of your gum line and prepare your teeth for the best possible restorative outcomes.
Crown Lengthening
Reshapes the gum and bone tissue to expose more of the tooth surface — either to correct a 'gummy smile' or to prepare a tooth for a crown or other restoration.
