Why See a Periodontist
Why See a Periodontist in Dallas:
A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in protecting the structures that support the teeth, such as the jaw bone and gums. They are the experts in the management and treatment of periodontal disease, tooth loss, and gum recession. A periodontist also receives advanced training in the placement and repair of dental implants, when a tooth is lost.
Periodontists, like Dr. Rabe, are specifically trained to save teeth. We utilize techniques such as deep cleanings, surgical cleanings, bone grafting, and laser regeneration to remove bacteria and regrow jaw bone that has been lost.
Beyond four years of dental school, Periodontists attend three years of residency to enhance their skills in dental surgery and regeneration. They are especially crafted in technique sensitive and micro-surgical procedures.
A Periodontist will consult with your general dentist to optimize your treatment outcome and ensure that you receive dedicated, comprehensive care. Having a Periodontist on your team, will not only improve your dental health, but also increase the chance of saving your teeth throughout your life. As Dr. Rabe always says, you can’t build a house without a healthy foundation.
