Dental Implants
Regain the function of a missing tooth with a dental implant from the periodontal experts at Manhattan Periodontal Associates.
Sedation-Sleep Dentistry
Make your dentistry easy to encounter with a completely painless and
stress-free appointment, through sedation dentistry. You'll "wake up"
after your procedure without having to endure the sounds, smells or
sensations of being in the dentist chair.
Periodontal Plastic Surgery
Sometimes misshapen gums diminish the looks of an otherwise healthy
smile. This procedure shapes gums into ideal shapes and proportions,
perfectly framing your teeth.
Gum Pocket Therapy
When infection invades gums, they develop deep pockets, which pull
away from teeth. This infection gets worse over time and the pockets can
cause your jaw bone to recede, so gum pocket therapy is essential as
early as possible.
About Periodontal Disease
The percentage of periodontal disease among adults above age 30 is
astonishing, and can eventually lead to tooth loss. Getting checked and
treating the disease as early as possible is vital, since there are
often no symptoms.
Periodontal & Overall Physical Health
There are links from gum disease (periodontal disease) to heart
health and other overall health factors. By keeping your gums in top
shape with our periodontists, you can keep your whole body in good
shape.
Extractions & Bone Preserving
If a tooth needs to come out, the bone in the gap leftover can recede
and leave you at a loss for future dental procedures. At our office, we
can perform a regenerative procedure for your bone, if we deem it
necessary.
Sinus Elevation & Lift
Sometimes there isn't enough bone in the upper jaw for dental
implants, in which case, our expert periodontists can perform a sinus
lift, maximizing your chance for a successful dental implant procedure.
Ridge Augmentation
This is a procedure that can maximize your bone density. For dental
implants, you need a certain amount of bone tissue for a successful
restoration.
Cosmetic Tooth-Crown Lengthening
Teeth can be lengthened to create ideal proportions, giving you a smile to show off and be proud of.
Gum Grafting, Recession & Root Coverage
Another periodontal procedure available at our office is the ability
to grow gum tissue where there wasn't any before, covering exposed tooth
roots and creating a healthier, more attractive gum line.
