Dear Patient,
Your health, comfort and satisfaction are important to me. My patients can count on it that “behind the scenes” we’re setting the stage for an optimal experience. Although I’ve practiced periodontics for over 20 years, I regularly undergo intensive training to sharpen my skills and keep current with the latest techniques. Equipment at my office is kept ahead of the times. For example, in 1999 Cascade Periodontics was one of the first practices to bring digital x-rays to West Michigan. Since then, we’ve continuously upgraded the system and have one of the most sophisticated digital x-rays on the market. It’s important to us, because you’re safer with a 90% reduction in radiation exposure and we’re able to provide better images for diagnosis and treatment. This commitment to the best technology is integrated throughout the practice.
Periodontal plastic surgery has been my emphasis for 16 years. Along with extensive training and experience, I regularly consult with other specialists from around the country. This emphasis on Plastics helps ensure a beautiful result that enhances any additional cosmetic work.
Before treatment, I’ll meet with you, discuss your condition and expectations and then map out a plan, complete with “before” and “after” pictures so you’ll know what to expect. During procedures I take time to be meticulous and gentle. This approach prevents postoperative pain and makes the treatment comfortable.
With patience, skill and today’s technology, I can make a big difference for the better. If you have any concerns about your gums call us, we’ll make you smile bigger and better than ever!
