Dental implants are incredible solutions for permanent replacement of missing teeth. While most dental implants never create any problems for patients, some individuals do experience peri-implantitis. This is a condition where bacteria between an implant is causing issues that are affecting the bone and gums, making the soft tissues inflamed. Without intervention with advanced practices such as laser dentistry, peri-implantitis can require the eventual removal of the dental implant, as well as other oral health problems.

I have been a patient of Dr Jones for 28 years. DR Jones and his staff are great. They explain all procedure options thoroughly and follow up after any procedure to make sure their patients are doing OK. My husband is now also a patient of Dr Jones. I tell everyone who tells me that they may need to see a periodontist, have their general dentist to get them in to see Dr Jones."
