“Getting my teeth done at Portland Perio Implant Center has been one of the best life-changing decisions of my life. When I went to look at other locations the first part of the consultation was about financing. At the Portland Perio Implant Center the consultation started with getting to know me and really trying to understand my situation. We went over different options and ultimately decided that the “All on 4″ would be the best option. Not once did I feel uncomfortable talking to them or showing them my smile. I was amazed when I was told that I could regain my smile in just one day. I now have a wonderful smile and I am much more social than before. I am able to eat foods that I thought I would never have again. Dr. Haghighat and his staff have kept in touch with me making sure that I am still doing well. I would absolutely recommend the Portland Perio Implant Center for anyone looking into dental implants.” 9-4-18 (Yelp & Google)

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.
