What is a Periodontist?
A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, and in the placement of dental implants.

Treating Periodontal Disease
Your general dentist and their hygienists often treat early and milder forms of periodontal disease, but should refer you to a periodontist when the problem persists beyond treatment in their office.

Dental Implants
Dental Implants are titanium alloy posts that are surgically installed into the upper or lower jaw that can be used to support dental crowns or full/partial dentures.

Soft Tissue Grafting
There are multiple conditions that affect the gum tissue requiring a periodontist to perform procedures that are collectively known as "gum grafting" or "gingival grafting"…

Crown Lengthening
Crown lengthening is a small surgical procedure performed by a periodontist primarily to improve either the functional access to a tooth for restorative purposes, or adjust the aesthetic design of a smile.

Sinus Augmentation
Dr. Richardson has been trained in multiple techniques of what is referred to as "sinus lifting" or "sinus augmentation". If a tooth needs to be extracted and the sinus is located above the roots, a socket preservation procedure will be recommended to keep the sinus from dropping down into the space where the tooth once was.

Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is a broad term used to describe the process of inducing bone growth in areas that are deficient. The majority of the time it is used to either regrow bone that has been lost due to periodontal disease or rebuild a bony ridge for the purpose of dental implant placement.
