LANAP is one of the most advanced treatments for periodontal disease available today. There is no cutting, no suturing, and most patients return to their routine the same day. It is not always easy to find close to home. We offer the LANAP protocol at our Wellington-area location, bringing this level of care to western Palm Beach County patients.
If you have lost one or more teeth, we provide dental implant placement and restoration at our Wellington-area office. Implants bond to the jawbone, prevent bone loss, and restore both function and appearance. For patients who need full-arch replacement, we also offer All-on-4 implant-supported dentures.

Receding gums expose tooth roots, increase sensitivity, and accelerate bone loss over time. We perform gum grafting procedures to restore lost tissue, cover exposed roots, and protect your teeth from further recession and damage.
If you have a dental implant and have developed an infection around it — a condition called peri-implantitis — LAPIP laser implant therapy treats that infection without traditional surgery. Early intervention is critical to preserving the implant and the surrounding bone.
Patients who have experienced bone loss may not have the bone volume needed to support dental implants. We perform bone grafting and sinus lift procedures at our Wellington-area location to rebuild the foundation before implant placement can proceed.
A periodontist is a dental specialist who completes three additional years of training after dental school, focused entirely on gum disease, the supporting bone structure, and dental implants. When your dentist refers you to a periodontist, it is because your condition requires that level of expertise. We can treat conditions that general dentistry does not have the training, tools, or surgical capabilities to address.
We also work closely with referring dentists throughout Wellington and western Palm Beach County and keep them informed of your progress so your overall dental care stays coordinated.
