CBCT Imaging:

We have the latest technology in dental imaging which provides 3D CT images for planning implants, bone grafts, wisdom teeth extraction. Radiation levels with this new technology available is less than conventional full mouth X-rays/Radiographs commonly done in dental offices.

Scaling Root Planing:

Also known as deep cleaning when you have pockets around your teeth and you are diagnosed with gum/periodontal disease or losing bone around teeth. Your dentist might refer you to us for deep cleaning which is generally the first step towards healthy gums/teeth. We anesthetize you and clean the pockets to get rid of tartar so that gums can reattach to the tooth.

Periodontal Maintenance:

Once you are diagnosed with gum\periodontal disease we recommend getting your cleanings every 3 months. After Dr. Joshi decides that you are doing a good job cleaning your teeth at home then we can alternate every 3 months with your referring dentist. Every appointment you get a doctor exam for free during periodontal maintenance.

Flap/Osseous Surgery:

Sometimes just doing the deep cleaning is not enough to get rid of the pockets around teeth in that case Dr. Joshi might recommend flap\osseous surgery to eliminate pockets and make it easy for you to maintain\clean those teeth.

Tissue Grafts:

Gum grafts are done around teeth to prevent further recession of gums or get the gum line back to the normal position on the tooth for cosmetic reasons. There are newer graft options available and we no longer need to take a piece of tissue from your palate. Dr. Joshi will discuss options with you that would provide the best results during the consult appointment.

Crown lengthening:

Decay\cavities can destroy a lot of tooth structure and your dentist might decide to fill the tooth and make a crown to save the tooth. If the decay, filling or crown margin goes below the gum level your dentist might refer you to us for crown lengthening surgery. By doing this procedure we make it easy for the dentist to do a crown on your tooth without causing any inflammation of the gum around the tooth.

Locate & Attach:

Children undergoing braces treatment might find out that some of their teeth are not erupting properly or causing damage to adjacent teeth. Your orthodontist might recommend you to see us so that we can surgically expose the tooth and put a button and chain on the tooth to help the orthodontist pull the tooth in the correct position.

Wisdom teeth Extractions:

At Umpqua Periodontics & Implant we have a CBCT imaging machine that provides us with visibility around malpositioned, angulated wisdom teeth in 3D. That way we can be as gentle as we can be in removing wisdom teeth. We also offer different levels of sedation to calm you down or put you to sleep during the entire procedure.

Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery:

if you are unhappy with the appearance of short or unsightly teeth, this can be greatly improved by a combination of periodontal procedures and cosmetic dentistry by your primary dentist.

Implants:

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. A person who has lost teeth can regain the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that his/her teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved.
