Q: What’s the difference between a periodontist and a regular dentist?

A: When a patient needs expert advice regarding gum disease, bone loss, dental implants and complicated treatment planning, then a Periodontist would be a good choice for a specialty doctor. If the Periodontist needs the services of a restorative dentist, then a referral can be made. Most of the time the restorative dentist and Periodontist work together in the best interests of the patient.
