Services
Periodontal Treatment Services at NSPI
We are very proud to be the first in Chicago to offer Perioscopy, a minimal invasive procedure which, instead of surgery to gain access below the tissue, utilizes a miniature TV camera. Considering all non-surgical treatment means, this is absolutely the most thorough method to clean a root surface; more effective than any “deep-cleaning” or “root planing and scaling procedure could hope to attain.
We were the first in our entire region to use the regenerative material, Emdogain, to grow back lost tooth structures and keep teeth longer.
Having had many “firsts” in therapy, give us an edge in experience with their use. North Shore Periodontics and Implantology, Ltd. is very proud to provide this technologic edge to our patients and referring practices.
