Welcome to Summit Periodontics & Dental Implants

Now more than ever, periodontal health is crucial. Gum health is vital to how you eat, speak, and feel about your smile. In addition, each year, we learn more about how closely linked the health of the gums is to the health of the entire body. This blog is part of our mission to pass on this knowledge so you can play an active part in keeping your gums as healthy as possible.

Periodontal treatment can be intimidating to patients who are new. This section of our website is dedicated to helping patients familiarize themselves with the procedures and treatments we offer. Not only is our blog a resource for what we can do for your gum health, but also it is a place to go for information about periodontal health in general. Maybe you are continuing with ongoing treatment, or maybe you have just been told you have a form of gum disease. Either way, if you are unsure about a topic or procedure, chances are you can get the information you need here.

Our approach to patient care employs what we deem to be the most trusted and effective forms of treatment in the field of periodontics today. New technologies are emerging all the time that make all sorts of claims. We will talk about some of these here.
