Your Gums Will Benefit From Advanced Laser Technology

To treat your gum disease, Dr. Crawford can use a special laser treatment called the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP). This cutting-edge dental technology ensures you will experience exceptional care.

Minimal Discomfort

Since the treatment doesn't use cutting or stitching, there is little to no pain during the procedure.

Faster Healing

Because of the minimally invasive nature of the laser, you will have quicker healing time.

Quicker Recovery Time

You will have less bleeding and discomfort after your treatment. You can return to your normal routine much quicker.

Less Risk of Post-Operative Infection

Thanks to the preciseness of the laser, you will have less risk of infection after your treatment.

Better Gum Health

While the laser removes the infected tissue, it will stimulate the growth of healthy gum tissue.

We Can Restore Your Gums When the Infection Is Gone

As an experienced periodontist, Dr. Crawford's goal is to keep your smile in great shape for many years to come. He hears from patients all the time how amazing their smile looks and feels, thanks to his treatment.

After your gum infection is gone, Dr. Crawford may recommend a procedure to restore your receding gumline. He offers the pinhole technique. It's a minimally invasive solution that involves little if any alteration of your normal routine. Or he may suggest a grafting procedure, which uses tissue from your mouth or a donor. He'll discuss your options with you, so together you can decide what's best for your smile.

An Experience Patients Trust

Donna W.

Dr. Crawford provided exceptional and compassionate service by helping me fix my left front tooth, which is an implant that fell out. Dr. Crawford came to the office during a holiday weekend to bring healing. They were warm, kind, and I felt as if I were a family member. I definitely recommend Dr. Crawford's office to anyone looking for a highly skilled and empathetic specialty dentist.

Charles A.

I've been a patient with Dr. Crawford for nearly 25 years. He and his staff are very up to date on new procedures, very friendly, efficient, easy to work with if you need to rearrange appointments and helpful dealing with insurance. I think you would have a hard time finding another office with more knowledge and experience to handle your periodontal issues.

Carol

Dr. Crawford and his staff are wonderful. They are friendly, competent, and compassionate. They make you feel comfortable and relaxed. They have taken care of my teeth for decades. I seriously doubt I would still have my own teeth if it were not for their care. And I am 80 years old! I recommend Dr. Crawford without hesitation.
