FAQs
-
A periodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease (periodontal disease) and the placement of dental implants. While general dentists handle a wide range of dental care, periodontists receive additional training in managing complex gum issues and performing advanced procedures related to gum health and bone structure.
-
You should consider seeing a periodontist like Dr. Kohnen if you experience symptoms such as red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, loose teeth, receding gums, or pain when chewing. These symptoms could indicate gum disease, which requires specialized care.
-
Gum disease begins with plaque buildup on the teeth, which can lead to gingivitis (mild gum inflammation). If untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more severe form of gum disease that can damage the gums and bone supporting your teeth, potentially leading to tooth loss. Gum disease is also linked to other health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

We offer a comprehensive range of periodontal services at our Berkeley office, including non-surgical treatments like scaling and root planing, surgical procedures such as gum grafting and pocket reduction, and advanced options like dental implants.
