Why Receive Care From a Periodontist?
While a general dentist is well-equipped to help maintain your oral health and treat problems that affect the teeth, gums, and other areas of the mouth, a periodontist has undergone special training to maintain the gums and bones that support the teeth. Dentists may refer their patients to a periodontist when they need advanced care.
At Premier Dental & Implant Center, we have a general dentist, an implant dentist, and a periodontist, so you have access to everything you may need under one roof. Drs. Yamen Akhras and Kaitlyn Lagesse can develop a plan that treats your gum disease, alleviates your uncomfortable symptoms, and restores the structural integrity of your mouth. You won't have to seek treatment anywhere else.
We Make Treatment Affordable
Our Orland Park, IL, office accepts most insurances, which makes treating the symptoms of gum disease affordable. However, dental implants aren't covered by insurance. If you're receiving implants or have other out-of-pocket expenses, you can pay in affordable monthly installments through CareCredit®.
When left untreated, gum disease can cause extensive damage that can be costly to fix. The sooner you seek treatment, the less it will cost.

View on GoogleOur Available Dental Solutions for Treating Gum Disease and Its Effects
If you are experiencing periodontal disease, your Orland Park, IL, dentist can provide the following dentistry treatments to completely restore your oral health:
The early stages of gum disease can be treated with scaling and root planing. This deep cleaning treats periodontal pockets by removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots to encourage the gums to reattach to the teeth.
Guided bone regeneration uses barrier membranes to direct the growth of new bone in areas where there is insufficient tissue. This tissue regeneration can allow for the stable placement of dental implants.
LAPIP stands for Laser-Assisted Peri-Implantitis Procedure. This is a minimally invasive Periolase 7 treatment that addresses peri-implantitis, an inflammatory gum and bone condition that can affect dental implants.
Periodontal Guided Tissue Regeneration is a surgical procedure used by periodontists to regenerate lost bone and gum tissue around teeth affected by severe periodontal disease, to rebuild the supporting structures of a tooth by creating a barrier that allows new bone and tissue to grow in its place.
Periodontics and Cosmetic Improvements
In addition to improving your oral health, periodontal treatments can also serve aesthetic purposes. Treatment can help with concerns like:
If your gums extend too far over your teeth and create the appearance of a "gummy" smile, you may feel self-conscious. Our dentists can perform gum contouring to give you a more balanced smile.
Do you have gum recession? It can result in exposed roots or an uneven gumline. Luckily, our periodontist can place gum grafts to improve the symmetry and aesthetics of your smile.
If Gum Disease Caused Tooth Loss We Can Help You Get Your Smile Back
Tooth loss is a common result of advanced periodontal disease — but we can assist. Once your periodontal care is complete and your oral wellness is improved, we can restore your smile with dental implants and a restoration.
