Houston
Periodontics & Implant Dentistry is a dedicated dental practice located at 5141 Dixie Hwy Suite 201, Louisville, KY 40216. This clinic specializes in periodontics and implant dentistry, addressing a wide range of
Oral Health needs related to gums and missing teeth. The practice is led by experienced periodontists, including Dr. John Houston and Dr. Lewis Dowden, D.M.D., who are committed to providing personalized and high-quality care.
Their services encompass a full spectrum of periodontal treatments, including the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of gum diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis. They offer non-surgical interventions such as scaling and root planing (deep
cleaning), as well as surgical procedures like osseous surgery for pocket reduction. A significant part of their expertise lies in various grafting techniques, including gum recession treatment with soft tissue grafting (connective tissue and pedicle grafts) and
Bone Grafting for jawbone regeneration. They also perform
Crown Lengthening procedures, which can be done for cosmetic reasons or to expose more tooth structure for restorations.
A cornerstone of their practice is dental implant placement and maintenance. They provide solutions for single tooth replacement, multiple tooth replacement, and full mouth rehabilitation using
Dental Implants. They emphasize that dental implants offer a stable, comfortable, and long-lasting solution that can prevent jawbone shrinkage often associated with tooth loss, thereby maintaining facial structure and improving overall quality of life. The clinic utilizes advanced technologies, including 3-D low-radiation cone beam computed tomography (CT) for precise diagnosis and digital planning of implant surgeries.
