Specialist Periodontists

Our specialist periodontists are fully qualified dentists who specialise in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of patients with gum disease and the placement of dental implants.

A periodontist has undergone extensive postgraduate training, leading to registration as a Specialist Practitioner. They are qualified to provide a more complex level of care for patients with gum disease and also perform associated surgical procedures and the placement of dental implants.

At Kew Periodontics and Dental Implants we pride ourselves on being among the most respected and sought after periodontists and specialists in Melbourne, providing the highest standard of treatment in a gentle, professional and caring manner.

Please call 03 9853 7700 and one of our friendly treatment coordinators will help you to make an appointment.
