Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery
Cosmetic periodontal procedures are a conventional way to cover unsightly, sensitive, or exposed root surfaces and to prevent future gum recession. If you are unhappy with the appearance of short, unsightly teeth, this can be greatly improved by a combination of periodontal procedures by Dr. Bryan Frantz or Dr. Kristen Frantz and cosmetic dentistry by your dentist.
Drs. Bryan J. Frantz or Kristen Frantz can give you the smile you’ve always wanted!

Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery Procedures
Crown Lengthening
Although your teeth appear short, they may actually be the proper length. The teeth may be covered with too much gum tissue. We can correct this by performing the periodontal plastic surgery procedure, crown lengthening. During this procedure, excess gum and bone tissue are reshaped to expose more of the natural tooth. This can be done to more than one tooth, to even your gum line, and to create a beautiful smile.

Gum Grafting
Another cosmetic procedure is the soft tissue graft. It is used to cover unattractive tooth roots, reduce gum recession, and protect the roots from decay and eventual loss.

Bone Grafting
Tooth loss causes the jaw bone to recede and can lead to an unnatural looking indentation in your gums and jaw, and appearance of a general aging. The original look of your mouth may not be recaptured because of spaces remaining under and between replacement teeth. They may appear too long compared to nearby teeth.
Bone grafting following tooth loss can preserve the socket/ridge and minimize gum and bone collapse. There is less shrinkage and a more aesthetic tooth replacement for either an implant crown or fixed bridge around the replacement teeth.

Our Latest Patient Testimonial
I recently had implant and crown procedures done at Perio Health & Dental Implants, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Before visiting them, I didn’t even know what the word periodontist meant! But I was so happy with my results, I not only looked up the definition but felt compelled to write a review. Dr. Kristen Frantz and the entire staff took the time to explain everything in a way that made me feel comfortable and informed. Their patient-first approach was clear at every step, from initial consultation to final procedure. Their use of modern dental technology (the scans are so cool...) made the process smooth and efficient and Dr. Kristen’s attention to detail and obsession with getting everything exactly perfect gave me such confidence in her work. The entire staff was not only competent but also incredibly kind making each visit stress-free. If you're looking for a dental office that combines expertise, cutting-edge technology, and a true patient-first philosophy, I couldn't recommend them strongly enough. Thanks!

I highly recommend perio health and dental implants to everyone I know! From the moment you step into the office, the staff treats you like family. The receptionists are very kind and accommodating! The dental hygienists, especially Nora, are efficient, smart and friendly! Dr.Frantz is amazingly talented! He always takes time to explain the problem, procedures and recommendations to me. He answers every question I have and ensure that I am comfortable with the treatment plan. Dr. Frantz is my primary Periodontist, but there is a team approach in the office and the other doctors in the office consulted and reviewed my case. It was so reassuring knowing that I had a whole team dental professionals working on my case. The office has the newest technology and uses the most cutting edge procedures and the results show it! I could not be happier with the outcome of my treatment! Thank you to the entire team at Perio Health and Dental Implants for giving me a beautiful smile!
