Periodontal treatment is geared towards creating a healthy foundation which allows for successful restorative and orthodontic outcomes. Patients will benefit from the extensive training and experience of several specialists working in concert with each other.
While the periodontist is the surgeon placing the implants, the restoration of dental implants is done by your general dentist or prosthodontist. Implant placement though dependent on bone, is ideally restoratively driven to ensure the best esthetic result for patients. A prosthodontic consultant will often assist in presenting several restorative options regarding the prostheses best suited to your case.
