I recently had a gum graft procedure in the Dallas TX area before traveling to northern California on business. I had a small problem with the stitches and since I was far from home, I had no choice but to find someone who could help me in San Ramon CA. I found Dr. Choi on Google so I decided to give his office a call. His staff was really polite and responded quickly to my needs. Their office was very clean as well. Dr Choi was very professional and courteous. He did a quick exam and got me back on my feet again on very short notice. On top of that, he did this without charging me anything at all. I would highly recommend Dr. Choi to anyone looking for a dentist / periodontist in the San Ramon CA area. You will not be disappointed!
I was recommended to see Dr. Choi for a procedure which had several steps and required me to visit many times over the course of 8 months. I had ample time to assess both Dr. Choi’s skill and his staff. Everyone was professional, kind and accommodating of my difficult scheduling needs. I would recommend Dr. Choi to anyone, without reservation, and I completely understand why so many dentist use him as their go-to recommendation.
Periodontal disease, commonly known as “gum disease,” occurs when bacteria infect the parts of the gums around the teeth, forming pockets and destroying tissue and bone if left untreated. Worse yet, the infection can lead to tooth loss, and it has even been linked to more serious problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s Disease, and low birth-weight babies.
Tooth loss or bone trauma can cause an indentation in the gums and jawbone where a tooth used to be. This happens because the jawbone recedes when it no longer is holding a tooth in place. Not only is this indention unnatural looking, it also causes the replacement tooth to look too long compared to the adjacent teeth — or it impedes the placement of an implant in the adequate position. Reconstructive therapy can fill these defects and recapture the natural contour of the gums and jaw. We can then create a new tooth that is natural looking, easy to clean and beautiful.
In addition to procedures to treat periodontal disease, Tri-Valley Periodontics also performs cosmetic procedures to enhance your smile. Often, patients who pursue cosmetic procedures notice improved function as well.
