Job Description

A Periodontist is a specialized dental practitioner who focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, as well as the placement of dental implants. As an expert in the structures supporting the teeth, a periodontist treats cases that are often beyond the expertise of a general dentist. This role requires a deep understanding of the complex anatomy of the jawbone, gums, and connective tissues. Periodontists are sometimes referred to as the architects of a dental care team, providing necessary and specialized insights into complex cases. They perform both non-surgical and surgical procedures to halt or manage periodontal health issues, working closely with patients to ensure optimal oral health. Equipped with the latest technological advancements, a periodontist's scope of work includes procedures like grafting, guided tissue regeneration, and crown lengthening. Their work is integral to the maintenance of oral health, playing a crucial role in the overall well-being of their patients.
