First Visit With Our Periodontist | Helotes, TX
A Periodontal Specialist You Can Trust
What to Expect from your First Visit
On your first visit with Dr. Nancy Perez-Medina, you will receive a thorough examination with the help of our low radiation digital x-rays and I-CAT 3D scans. Our advanced imaging technology not only gives Dr. Perez-Medina added insight into your oral health, but it also enables us to present our findings so that it is easy for you to see what she sees. Dr. Perez-Medina will then discuss her findings and treatment options with you as well as any of your concerns.
Choosing Your Periodontist
Periodontists have extensive training and experience beyond that of a general dentist in the treatment of gum disease. Dr. Perez-Medina utilizes advanced imaging and laser technology. She is the only female periodontist in Helotes, TX, and the surrounding area. Call our office today to schedule an appointment. We speak English and Spanish.
Periodontal Treatments
Periodontists specialize in the health of the gums and the placement of dental implants. Gum disease occurs when harmful bacteria harbor between the gums and teeth, eventually breaking down healthy tissue. Once gum disease advances far enough, it is irreversible and persistent action needs to be taken to save the teeth. Dr. Perez-Medina offers preventative and restorative treatments to help maintain your gum health. These treatments range from specialized cleanings to surgical intervention.
Do I Need a Specialist?
While many general dentists have some training (often weekend courses) in particular periodontal treatments, periodontists have much more extensive understanding of this area as well as more training in advanced techniques, which makes them better equipped to understand when and how to treat particular cases.
