Teeth for a lifetime.

 

At all times, we put the patient first and work to serve YOUR best interests. That’s the Perio Focus difference.

Our vision at Perio Focus is to help retain your natural teeth for your lifetime. There are many health and cosmetic benefits in preserving your natural teeth, as the natural structure of the mouth and jaw are maintained.

 

Through careful diagnosis and planning, we will tailor a management strategy to help you retain your teeth by using your natural tooth roots. If you have missing teeth, then the alternative strategy is to anchor down new teeth with a metal root. These are called dental implants and, if properly maintained, can last for many years.
