I’ve had a great experience thus far with Dr. Haghighat. I had a crown on one of my front teeth come off and had A LOT of discomfort and irritation after it was cemented back on by my dentist. I went to see Dr. Haghighat and he diagnosed the issue and provided incremental solutions, which I found comforting. He didn’t instantly recommend surgery, but rather suggested treating the irritation with some peridex. Unfortunately, I had to resort a gum augmentation. Dr. Haghighat did a fantastic job. After the surgery, I had a couple concerns/questions and staff happily scheduled multiple follow-up appointments with me to make sure everything was healing okay. My crown came off…again. It was the weekend so I called Dr. Haghighat directly. I explained to him what was going on and he took the time to answer my questions. When I went in for my appointment, Dr. Haghighat, again, did a fantastic job. I was so pleased with how the tooth and my gum looked. But the tooth saga continues. I’ll hopefully be going back soon to change my cement retained crown for a screw retained. I would definitely recommend Dr. Haghighat’s practice.

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 dentist may recommend a visit to a periodontist if they suspect that the patient has gum disease or if there are signs of inflammation, bleeding, or infections in the gums.

It is important to follow through with the recommendation to prevent further complications and maintain good oral health.
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.
