OUR DOCTORS
PERIODONTAL SERVICES
PERIODONTAL DISEASE & TREATMENT
Periodontal diseases, prevalent in the United States, encompass a range of gum conditions from mild gingivitis to advanced periodontal disease. These oral health issues can lead to significant discomfort and long-term damage if left untreated. Our periodontal practice provides comprehensive treatment options for every stage of gum disease, aiming to restore gum health and minimize tooth loss risk.
Gingivitis, the mildest form of gum disease, is characterized by inflamed gum tissue, often resulting from plaque and tartar accumulation. With timely intervention and proper oral hygiene, gingivitis can be reversed. As gum disease advances into periodontitis, gums may recede, and the underlying bone structure can be damaged. Our office offers various treatments for periodontitis, including scaling and root planing, gum grafting, and surgical intervention for advanced cases.
Laser Periodontal Treatment (LANAP)
Our office takes pride in being the foremost periodontal practice in Memphis to offer the groundbreaking Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP). This state-of-the-art treatment method has revolutionized the way we address advanced gum disease, empowering our esteemed periodontists, Dr. Godat and Dr. King, to deliver exceptional care to our patients without resorting to conventional gum surgery.
As opposed to traditional gum surgery, which often involves cutting and suturing, the LANAP protocol provides a less invasive and more patient-friendly alternative. In addition to being more comfortable, this procedure promotes the natural regeneration of lost periodontal tissue, helping to restore both the function and aesthetics of the treated area.
By choosing our practice for your periodontal treatment, you can benefit from the expertise of Dr. Godat and Dr. King, who have undergone rigorous training and certification to offer LANAP to their patients. They are dedicated to providing a compassionate and effective approach to treating advanced gum disease, ensuring that you receive the best possible care.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. They are an excellent option for people who have lost one or more teeth due to injury, periodontal disease, or other reasons. Dental implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth and can improve the appearance, function, and overall health of your mouth.
Board-certified periodontists, Drs. Godat and King, are highly skilled dental professionals who specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, as well as the placement of dental implants. With their expertise and experience, they have successfully placed over 23,000 dental implants, making them among the most trusted and sought-after implant specialists in the field.
Overall, dental implants are a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution for restoring missing or damaged teeth. With the expertise of Drs. Godat and King and the advanced technology available at our practice, patients can trust that they are receiving the highest quality care for their dental implant treatment.
COSMETIC PERIODONTAL SURGERY
Cosmetic periodontics is a specialized field that combines the principles of periodontics and orthodontics to provide patients with optimal oral health and aesthetically pleasing results. Our Memphis periodontal office offers a wide range of cosmetic periodontal solutions, such as gum contouring, crown lengthening, soft tissue grafting, and dental implants, that are tailored to suit each individual’s unique needs and preferences. By integrating the techniques from both disciplines, we ensure our patients enjoy long-lasting gum health and a beautiful, functional smile.
Our dedicated team of periodontal specialists develop comprehensive treatment plans that address both the functional and aesthetic aspects of oral health. We prioritize patient comfort and satisfaction, utilizing the latest technology and techniques to minimize discomfort and ensure the best possible outcomes. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, we strive to make the entire process as seamless and enjoyable as possible.
