Your initial consultation appointment with Dr. Glen-Spyron and our friendly team will involve an evaluation of your needs, as well as a clinical and radiological (x-rays) assessment.

By the end of the evaluation, we will be able to offer you with some first impressions of what our work will involve, including a summarized treatment plan and cost estimate of the recommended treatment.

No, you can self-refer. Although most of our patients are referrals from dentists, you are welcome to schedule an appointment with us directly if you show symptoms of gum disease or are looking for a permanent solution to (a) missing tooth/teeth.

Some patients who require straightforward periodontal treatment can be managed by a general dentist. Similarly, some general dentists also perform dental implant procedures.

However, in light of extensive research suggesting that periodontal disease can be linked to stroke, heart disease, diabetes and other chronic diseases, more challenging periodontal treatment may require a higher level of expertise that only a trained specialist in periodontology can provide.
