Services
According to the practice’s “Procedures Performed” page, Nashville Periodontal Group provides a range of periodontal and dental implant procedures, including:
- Dental implant related procedures, in which implants serve as metal anchors that substitute for the roots of teeth and are secured to the jawbone, supporting replacement of a single tooth, dentures, or full-arch non-removable prostheses
- Periodontal related procedures, addressing conditions such as gingivitis and periodontitis through treatments aimed at reducing bacterial load, repairing affected structures, and protecting areas from disease recurrence
- Periodontal hygiene and maintenance procedures, including cleanings and evaluations to reassess periodontal health and refine treatment plans
- Sedation options, with customized sedation described for patient comfort
- Esthetic plastic surgery enhancements
The practice notes that its providers routinely incorporate non-invasive and minimally invasive surgical techniques intended to maximize outcomes while reducing trauma to surgical sites, minimizing incisions and stitches, and supporting patient comfort and healing. The website also references the use of 3D imaging, including cone-beam scans, and digital radiography.
