First step

What happens at the first periodontist visit?

The first visit usually includes an exam, imaging, and a treatment plan tailored to your gums and teeth. At Alpha Dental Excellence, the sedation consultation is complimentary, a $574 value, and it includes a CBCT scan plus a panoramic X-ray. That gives the doctor a clear view of bone levels, gum health, and any infection or implant concerns. You leave with the next steps explained in plain language, not a guess.

What the visit can include

Exam and imagingThe team reviews your gums, teeth, and supporting bone before recommending care.

Clear next stepsYou get a plan for gum treatment, maintenance, or referral-style coordination if needed.

Sedation reviewOral and IV sedation options are available in house for anxious patients.

Complimentary consult valueThe sedation consultation includes CBCT and panoramic imaging at no added consult charge.

Gum health

Why would a Philadelphia patient need a periodontist?

Patients often need a periodontist for bleeding gums, gum recession, loose teeth, or bone loss around teeth and implants. Alpha Dental Excellence has four dentists at one address and has treated 27,000+ patients since 2004, so the team sees these problems often. If gum disease is advanced, early care can help protect the teeth you still have. If you are already missing teeth, the visit can also support implant planning and long-term maintenance.

Common reasons to book

Bleeding gumsBleeding when brushing or flossing can point to inflammation that should not be ignored.

Gum recessionReceding gums can expose roots and increase sensitivity or decay risk.

Loose teethMobility can signal loss of support around the tooth and needs prompt evaluation.

Implant planningA periodontist can assess whether the bone and gums can support implant treatment.

Comfort care

What sedation options are available for nervous patients?

Oral and IV sedation are available in house, which helps patients who delay care because of anxiety or a strong gag reflex. The complimentary sedation consultation is a $574 value and includes CBCT and panoramic imaging before treatment is planned. That combination matters if you need a longer gum procedure or multiple areas addressed at once. It also helps the team match the sedation level to the procedure and your medical history.

Comfort details

Oral sedationA simpler option for patients who want to feel calmer during treatment.

IV sedationUseful for deeper relaxation during more involved periodontal care.

Imaging includedCBCT and panoramic X-ray help the doctor plan safely and accurately.

Consult valueThe consultation is complimentary, and the stated value is $574.
