A natural tooth consists of a root and a crown. If you compare natural teeth to implant-supported replacement teeth, youll see they have the same basic parts.
Periodontal diseases are infections of the gums which gradually destroy the support of your natural teeth. There are numerous disease entities requiring different treatment approaches.
Periodontists are often considered the plastic surgeons of dentistry. If you are looking to improve your smile, a periodontist may be able to help.

Serene gum grafts I was referred to Westport Perio by my dentist who saw my gum line receding. I was very nervous about any oral surgery, but Dr. Campbell explained every aspect of the procedure and how it will help and why it's important. After consideration I accepted my fate, and it turned out to be as smooth as a bobsled ride. The staff was friendly and the procedure was simple, my fears were overblown. This is place to trust for your oral needs!Posted on Google![]()

Dr. Schaberg and his entire team are outstanding. I went to him for an implant on my front tooth. He has a great way about him, very good people skills and he explains the process very well. Beyond that I feel very confident he is exceptional at what he does. He also came highly recommended from my dentist.Posted on Yelp![]()

Space is clean, parking isn't a hassle, and Dr. Kyd is very informative and takes his time to get to know his patients and makes every effort on the educational piece of everything. He did a thorough job with my exams and the auxillary staff are professional and courteous. I'm not a fan of how the insurance companies work, but at least there are good and caring professionals in the states.
