What Is a Periodontist?

A periodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, as well as procedures involving the supporting structures of the teeth such as gums, ligaments, and bone. Periodontists also specialize in dental implants and bone grafting procedures for patients with advanced gum disease or tooth loss.

Dr. Gholami brings years of specialized training in periodontics and implant surgery, offering patients access to modern techniques such as laser therapy, scaling and root planing, and guided tissue regeneration.

When Should You See a Periodontist?

Gum disease is a silent but progressive condition that, when left untreated, can lead to tooth loss. Common signs you may need periodontal care include:

Bleeding gums during brushing or flossing
Persistent bad breath
Gum recession or visibly “long” teeth
Loose or shifting teeth
Discomfort while chewing
Swollen, red, or tender gums

If you notice any of these symptoms, contact our office for an evaluation with Dr. Gholami, one of the most trusted periodontists in Jupiter and the surrounding communities.
