What is a Periodontist?

A periodontist is a dentist who attends 3 years of additional training following dental school and specializes in: placing dental implants, fixing gum recession, and treating gum disease. Dr. Jeffery Jensen is one of the few board certified periodontists in the state and is practicing locally in Kaysville, Utah.

Dental Implants

Dental implants provide a reliable way to replace missing or broken teeth. Dental implants are a proven long-term replacement option that provide natural looking crowns and function. Implants provide a multitude of options and we will work with you to choose the option that best helps you achieve your best smile.

 
 

Benefits of dental implants

  • Dental implants are designed to function like natural teeth, they provide a stable, firm foundation for a dental crown.

  • Dental implants are the first choice for replacing missing teeth.

  • Dental implants are resilient and long lasting.

  • Dental implants do not require any modification of surrounding teeth, like a bridge or removable partial denture does.

 
 

Great Smiles Start with a Great Foundation

Just like any building, a sure foundation is necessary for success. When the gum line around teeth is symmetrical and the teeth are proportionally correct, a smile can really shine. We specialize in gum plastic surgery procedures to contour and replace missing gum tissue.

 

Gum Contouring

Some of us struggle with having a “gummy smile.” This occurs when excess gum tissue makes the teeth look smaller than they really are. Gum contouring, otherwise known as crown lengthening, can restore a balanced and proper proportion to your smile. Often, small changes make a big difference.

Gum Grafting

Gum grafts are used to replace missing gum tissue that has receded and to cover exposed tooth roots. Grafts not only make gums look more esthetic, but they also decrease sensitivity and improve the long term health of teeth and bone.

Healthy Tissues Lead to Healthy Teeth

Our smile consists of more than just the crowns of our teeth. The tissue around the teeth, including the bone and gum, helps to create an esthetically pleasing smile. Occasionally, bacteria and plaque can build up around the teeth and cause damage. We specialize in treating gum disease in many forms.

 

Deep Cleaning

In most cases, the first line of defense against gum disease is a deep cleaning. We remove plaque and tartar from the teeth and below the gum to help improve health. This treatment improves gum inflammation and bad breath.

Periodontal Surgery

Occasionally, gum disease can be too severe for a deep cleaning. In these cases, bone grafting (replacing missing bone) and bone treatments become necessary. We provide a caring, and patient-centered plan to treat each case of gum disease. Our goal is to improve your oral health and happiness.

Bone Grafting

Gum disease, tooth loss, or sinus growth can all cause bone loss. We specialize in grafting bone that has been lost to restore health to the mouth and to make placing dental implants possible. Bone grafting is a great option for treating bone loss.
