Lee Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and Periodontics - San Francisco
When it comes to protecting your oral health, you deserve care that’s precise, advanced, and focused on long-term results—not temporary fixes. At Lee Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and Periodontics - San Francisco , we specialize in periodontics in San Francisco CA, the field dedicated to treating and preserving the structures that support your smile. That includes your gums, the underlying bone, and the connective tissues that keep your teeth stable.
Our team combines leading-edge technology with a compassionate, patient-first approach to deliver care that feels both effective and comfortable. Whether you’re dealing with gum disease, exploring dental implants, or searching for answers about persistent oral discomfort, you can trust our periodontal specialists to provide exceptional solutions tailored to your needs.
Common Periodontal Concerns We Treat
Periodontal issues often begin quietly, affecting the gums and supporting bone long before visible changes appear—making skilled care essential once symptoms begin. Many of the problems we address include inflammation around the gums, bone loss, deep periodontal pockets, and infections hidden beneath the surface. Patients may notice bleeding when brushing, sensitivity to temperature or pressure, chronic bad breath, or swelling that doesn’t resolve. Others seek help after gum recession, injury, or a shift in how their teeth fit together.
These warning signs signal that the supporting structures of your smile need attention. By treating the underlying cause of infection or inflammation—rather than simply managing symptoms—we restore health, stability, and comfort. Our focus is always on preserving your natural teeth whenever possible while creating an environment where your gums and bone can remain strong for years to come.

Why Our Approach to Periodontal Care Truly Makes a Difference
Every person who visits us brings their own history, goals, and concerns, which is why we never rely on cookie-cutter treatment plans. Rather than jumping straight into a procedure, we take time to understand what you’re experiencing, learn about your overall health, and get a sense of what helps you feel comfortable and supported. We treat your care as a collaborative process—one where your voice matters just as much as our clinical expertise. Your smile’s foundation is important, and so is ensuring that you feel heard, valued, and confident throughout every stage of treatment.
What truly distinguishes our practice is the balance we strike between technical excellence and genuine compassion. Advanced imaging, innovative techniques, and precise tools help us treat complex conditions with accuracy—but they’re only part of the experience. We’re equally committed to creating a calm, reassuring environment where your comfort is always a priority. Because when modern innovation is paired with thoughtful, personalized care, the result is a higher standard of periodontal treatment that supports both your health and your peace of mind.
What Is Periodontics?
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating conditions that affect the gums, bone, and supporting structures around your teeth. These tissues form the foundation of your smile, and when they’re compromised, your oral health can decline rapidly.
Our periodontists focus on the full spectrum of gum and supporting tissue care, addressing everything from active gum disease to ongoing maintenance. They are highly skilled in managing gum recession, rebuilding the bone that supports your teeth, and ensuring dental implants are placed and maintained with precision. Their expertise also extends to enhancing the health and appearance of the gumline, creating a stronger, more balanced foundation for a long-lasting smile.
You can think of periodontics as the protective shield for your smile. What you see in the mirror is only part of the picture—your gums and bone play a vital role in keeping your teeth stable and healthy. By addressing problems at their foundation, we help patients move from discomfort and uncertainty to restored confidence and lasting oral health.
A Brief History of Periodontics
The desire to protect natural teeth has existed for centuries, but modern periodontics has evolved dramatically thanks to advancements in science, technology, and surgical techniques. As early as the 1800s, dentists began understanding gum disease as a treatable condition rather than an inevitable part of aging.
By the mid-20th century, periodontics officially became a recognized dental specialty, shaping the way we diagnose and treat gum infections, bone loss, and oral inflammation. Today, tools like 3D imaging, lasers, microsurgical instruments, and regenerative materials allow specialists at Lee Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and Periodontics - San Francisco to provide care that is more precise, comfortable, and predictable than ever before.
Despite the progress, the core purpose remains unchanged: protect natural teeth, restore gum health, and support long-term oral wellness.
