Periodontics

Description:

Have you been referred to our office for diagnosis and treatment of gum disease or for any other issues relating to the health of your gums? As a dental clinic in downtown Halifax specializing in periodontics, Park Lane Dental Specialists provides a range of periodontal services on a referral basis to patients.

We specialize in the management of the hard and soft tissues surrounding your teeth, and we offer periodontal treatments such as crown lengthening, bone and soft tissue grafting, biopsies, dental implant placement, and the treatment and maintenance of gum disease.

Treatment:

The key to a positive outcome for gum disease is early detection of symptoms followed by conscientious ongoing treatment. Gum disease is a chronic condition, so proper maintenance of symptoms and conditions will give you the greatest chance to keep your teeth and mouth healthy.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

During your first periodontal appointment in our office, we will thoroughly examine your mouth and teeth and take X-rays of your teeth and jaws. After the examination we will present you with your diagnosis and treatment options best suited to your individual case.
