I had a front tooth that had to be pulled, because of a previous trauma to the tooth. Needless to say, it was upsetting. In addition, I was told that I did not have enough bone in the area in which to anchor the implant. A CT scan was taken right in the office, after which Dr. Haghighat assured me that after a bone graft, an implant placement would work. In addition to a successful implant being put in, Dr. Haghighat was meticulous about the appearance and the health of the gum. The doctor was easy to relate to, and to trust. He answered all my questions in a calm and confident way. He explained everything. His dental assistant, Melissa and office manager Dani are awesome, competent and friendly. I am so relieved to have been taken care of by such good people.”

A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease (a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth, also known as gum disease), and in the placement of dental implants.

A periodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, also known as gum disease.

A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum diseases and other conditions that affect the supporting structures of the teeth. While dentists focus on the general health and maintenance of teeth, periodontists have additional education and training to handle more complex cases.
The choice between an oral surgeon and a periodontist for dental implants involves several factors, including case complexity, patient health, and practitioner expertise for surgery and aesthetics (implants). To make an informed decision, consult with both specialists and consider their recommendations along with personal preferences. I also recommend you review their online case studies and reviews. Crucially, ensure the chosen practitioner is licensed and experienced in dental implant procedures.
