Free Screening for failing implants and all other periodontal issues

We are offering a complimentary screening to evaluate the health of your dental implants and gums. During this visit, our team will assess signs of inflammation, infection, bone loss, and overall periodontal health, and provide guidance on the best next steps if treatment is needed.

This free screening is ideal for patients who:

  • Have existing dental implants and notice changes or discomfort
  • Have been told they may have gum disease
  • Experience bleeding gums, bad taste, or swelling
  • Want peace of mind about their implant health

What are the signs of Periodontal Disease?

Call and schedule today for your comprehensive periodontal examination. We also provide a free screening consultation upon request. If someone recommends extraction of any periodontal diseased teeth even with 80% or more bone loss, please call us for a second opinion. The disease can be arrested in most cases.

Yes, having active, untreated periodontal disease is an internationally well known risk factor for the infection spreading to dental implants placed in the same mouth. There is no substitute for keeping your own natural teeth in health and comfort for a lifetime if you know how. Dr. Bleier can show you how.

Patient Reviews

Real stories from patients who experienced our commitment to care and excellence.

I have been a patient of Dr. Larry Bleier for over 30 years. Mine was a rather serious and complicated case which, over the years, resulted in a number surgeries and required close, ongoing care. I can honestly say that without Dr. Bleier’s interventions and good work, I would have likely lost my teeth and full bridge.

Along the path of intervention and care, this skilled periodontist provided me with services that achieved successful and quality results. I know that some periodontists try to move their patients rather quickly to implants, since they are expensive and fairly profitable for the dental office. However, in my case and with others who I know, this periodontist puts a high priority on saving teeth. Dr. Bleier is exceptional at oral surgery, and I have learned that he keeps up to date on the most recent validated research in periodontal strategies and care. His professional preparation background is impressive. He has always taken time with me to explain the rationale and expected results of each procedure that I have experienced. Not all health care professionals seem to do the same these days.

Over the many years of being his patient, I have found Dr. Bleier’s office to be inviting, professional and focused on my needs, Hygienists who have worked with me there over the years have changed a number of times, but all have been skilled and personable. He holds them to high standards and some have told me that they have learned new skills there. When one is the patient, one wants skilled hygienists, for sure.

Linda, the office manager has been there for decades and, in my view, is the positive cohesive force that keeps the office ticking professionally. The front desk is always welcoming and accommodating.

I needed results and received them from this office, and I highly recommend Dr. Bleier to anyone in need of quality periodontal care.

Peri-Implantitis Treatment

What is Peri-Implantitis?

Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory infection that affects the gum tissue and bone surrounding a dental implant. It is similar to periodontitis around natural teeth, but it can progress more quickly and may result in significant loss of the supporting bone if left untreated.

Common signs of peri-implantitis include redness, swelling, or tenderness around the implant, bleeding during brushing or flossing, gum recession, discharge or pus, and in advanced cases, loosening of the implant. Persistent bad breath may also occur.
