Our Services
Bone Grafting & Regeneration
Bone loss around teeth and implants can be rebuilt. Dr. Pastagia uses advanced regenerative techniques to restore the foundation your teeth and implants need to thrive.
Dental Implants
Missing teeth deserve a permanent solution. Using computer-guided surgery and 3D imaging, Dr. Pastagia places implants with exceptional precision for results that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Gum Grafting
Receding gums expose roots, cause sensitivity, and compromise your smile. Soft tissue grafting restores coverage, reduces discomfort, and protects your teeth long-term.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Gum disease ranges from mild inflammation to serious infection affecting the bone. Dr. Pastagia provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment at every stage — from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis.
Implant Repair
Failing or damaged implants don't always need to be removed. Dr. Pastagia evaluates compromised implants and offers targeted solutions — including bone grafting and laser therapy — to restore function and preserve your investment.
Scaling & Root Planing
The cornerstone of non-surgical gum disease treatment. This thorough deep cleaning removes plaque and calculus from below the gumline, allowing gum tissue to heal and reattach.
Laser Treatment
Using the Fotona laser, Dr. Pastagia treats gum disease and performs soft tissue procedures with minimal discomfort, no scalpel, and faster healing than traditional methods.
Crown Lengthening
Whether for restorative or cosmetic reasons, crown lengthening reshapes gum and bone tissue to expose more of the tooth — creating a healthier foundation for crowns or a more balanced smile.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is periodontal disease and how do I know if I have it?
Periodontal disease is an infection of the gums and bone supporting your teeth. Signs include bleeding gums, bad breath, gum recession, and loose teeth. A thorough periodontal evaluation by Dr. Pastagia can determine your diagnosis and best treatment plan.
Do I need a referral to see a periodontist?
While many patients are referred by their general dentist, you are welcome to schedule directly with our office. We work closely with your existing dental team to coordinate your care.
How long does periodontal treatment take?
Treatment time varies depending on the severity of your condition. Many patients complete initial treatment in 2-4 appointments, followed by a customized maintenance schedule.
Does periodontal treatment hurt?
We prioritize your comfort throughout every procedure. Local anesthesia is used for surgical treatments, and most patients are pleasantly surprised by how manageable their recovery is.
