Brookline Periodontal Associates

At Brookline Periodontal Associates, we take pride in our long-standing tradition of providing exceptional periodontal care to the Boston community. With over 70 years of service, we continue to uphold our commitment to excellence in periodontal care. Our practice was established in the late 1940s by Dr. Henry M. Goldman, who later founded the Boston University dental school bearing his name.

Our team of experienced periodontists, including Dr. Ronald M. Fried and Dr. Boris Stein, are dedicated to delivering personalized, gentle care to our patients. We utilize the latest technologies and techniques to ensure optimal results that last. Our commitment to our patients extends beyond the clinic; we strive to educate them on their oral health needs and encourage them to make informed decisions about their dental care.

Periodontal Disease Diagnosis and Treatment

Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a common condition that affects the gums and the bone supporting the teeth. It is often caused by poor oral hygiene, smoking, and genetics, among other factors. If left untreated, periodontal disease can lead to tooth loss and even contribute to other health issues like heart disease and diabetes.

Our experienced periodontists diagnose periodontal disease through a thorough examination of the patient's teeth and gums. We use advanced imaging technologies, such as digital X-rays, to identify any damage to the bone and supporting tissues. Depending on the severity of the disease, treatment options range from periodontal scaling and root planing to pocket reduction surgery and antibiotic therapy.

Dental Implants and Services

At Brookline Periodontal Associates, we offer a range of dental implant services designed to restore missing teeth and improve the overall appearance and function of your smile. Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They can be used to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even an entire arch of teeth.

Our periodontists work closely with our patients to determine the best course of treatment for their individual needs. We offer various periodontal services, including dental implants, gingival grafting, crown lengthening, regenerative procedures, bone grafting, sinus augmentation, and antibiotic treatment. We also provide ongoing maintenance care to ensure the longevity of your dental implants.

Maintenance and Follow-Up Care

Regular maintenance is crucial to the success of your dental implants and overall oral health. Our team will work with you to develop a personalized maintenance plan that includes regular cleanings, check-ups, and monitoring for any signs of periodontal disease or other issues. We also offer oral cancer screenings to ensure your overall health and well-being.
