OUR PROCEDURES

Single Dental Implants, Multiple Dental Implants, or All on 4? We offer dental implant solutions that are right for you and can improve your Life.

We remove dental plaque and tartar, which causes gum inflammation and disease and bacteria on the root surfaces below the gums.

We can get your bone to grow back again around a tooth when bone loss is caused by gum disease.

Gum tissue can deteriorate or end up getting damaged. The reason can be genetic, unhealthy gums, or a lack of attention to oral hygiene. We can fix those problems.

Gum recession can lead to a smile that looks irregular. We can help you by using soft tissue grafting that repairs the gums and make your smile more symmetrical again.

We specialize in Periodontics

Personalized Treatment with top quality dental work

Periodontics is a dental specialty. The word “periodontics” comes from two Greek words: “peri,” which means “around” and “odont,” which means “tooth.” So, the field of periodontics treats conditions that affect the tissues “around your teeth,” such as bone loss, gum recession, and periodontal (gum) disease.

The periodontist is mainly concerned with preventing the onset of gum disease (periodontal disease); diagnosing conditions affecting the gums and jawbone; and treating gingivitis, periodontitis, and bone loss.

We Appreciate Online Feedback

  • I loved Dr. Hegde and her staff. I had to have a frenectomy, bone and gum graft all done which I was so nervous about. They had it all done in an hour it was affordable and they made me feel at ease during the procedure and had excellent follow up aftercare. I can’t recommend them enough!

  • Dr. Hegde has worked with me on two gum graphs and an implant. She was amazing to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Her staff as well was very helpful and professional.

  • I had a bone and gum graft on teeth on both sides of my mouth. Doctor Hegde is kind and knowledgeable and I would go there again (I kinda hope I don't have to). The staff are considerate and helpful as well. I did have trouble getting in touch with them for questions at one point, but it was all figured out. Oh, and I recommend the conscious sedation for gum grafts. 🙂

  • Dr. Hegde is kind, caring, respectful and professional. She squeezed me in when I had an emergency need for an implant and calmed my concerns over my broken tooth. Well worth the drive. I highly recommend Dr. Rachana Hegde BDS. I’m thrilled with the results!
