Caring Periodontics Services for South Jersey areas such as Burlington County, Camden County and Gloucester County in South Jersey.

Your general dentist has determined that your gums require special care and treatment and has referred for you to see a periodontist.

A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease, and in the placement of dental implants.

Periodontists are experts in the treatment of oral inflammation. Periodontists are trained extensively in advanced areas, including three additional years of education beyond dental school. They are familiar with the latest techniques for diagnosing and treating periodontal disease, and are also trained in performing cosmetic periodontal procedures.
