🦷 FAQ: Do I need a referral to see a periodontist?

No! While many of our patients are referred to us by their dentist, you can also contact Downtown Periodontal Group directly.

If you’re concerned about your gums, experiencing gum recession, considering dental implants or simply want a specialist’s opinion about your periodontal health, you don’t have to wait for a referral to get started.

Healthy gums are an important part of a healthy smile. Let’s take care of them.

🫀 Your gums might be affecting more than your smile.

Gum disease isn't just a mouth problem, research links untreated periodontal disease to inflammation that can affect your heart, blood sugar, and overall health.

✅ Gum inflammation doesn't stay contained to your gums
✅ It's been linked to heart health and blood sugar control
✅ Early-stage gum disease often has no pain at all
✅ You don't need a referral to get it checked, self-referrals are welcome

Healthy gums aren't just about a nice smile, they're part of taking care of your whole body.

🦷 Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile.

It’s easy to focus on your teeth, but your gums and the supporting structures around them play an essential role in your overall oral health.

Bleeding, tenderness, recession or changes in your gums shouldn’t be ignored. At Downtown Perio Group, our team focuses on periodontal care to help prevent, diagnose and manage conditions affecting your gums and the supporting structures of your teeth.

Take care of the foundation of your smile. Your gums matter too!

Happy first day of fall! Gum disease can be sneaky, so this season, take a moment to check in on your gums. Notice any of these?

✅ Bleeding when you brush or floss

🔍 The scariest thing about gum disease? You might not feel a thing.

Most people assume something's wrong with their gums when it hurts. But periodontal disease is often painless in its early stages, which is exactly why it does so much damage before anyone notices.

✅ Early gum disease rarely causes pain or discomfort
✅ Bone loss around the teeth can happen silently, over years
✅ By the time symptoms show up, treatment often needs to be more involved
✅ Regular checks catch it long before you'd ever feel it yourself

The absence of pain isn't the same as the absence of a problem, that's why regular checks matter more than how your mouth feels day to day.

😁 Missing a tooth (or several)? Dental implants could be your permanent fix.

As periodontists, we specialize in implant placement, including cases that need bone grafting or sinus lifts first to build a solid foundation.

✔️ Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth
✔️ Options available even with bone loss, through grafting or ridge augmentation
✔️ Implant-supported overdentures available for those missing all upper or lower teeth
✔️ A specialist's precision matters most when it comes to long-term implant success

Don't let missing teeth hold your smile, or your confidence, back.
