There’s a wide range of services that are offered by Dr. Trujillo here at Arizona Periodontal Group. If you’re interested in any of the services we’re about to discuss and outline below, you can schedule an appointment with him and find out more about them in a consultation. Dr. Trujillo is happy to educate his patients and answer all your questions.

Dental Implants

One of the most common procedures carried out by Dr. Trujillo is the dental implant procedure he offers. These allow patients to have secure implants installed to replace missing teeth. They’re more secure and don’t have to be removed at any point, making them a fantastic long-term and durable solution.

Gum Disease Treatments

Gum disease is a problem that affects many people, and it can spread to the bone and teeth if it’s not treated properly. The services provided by Dr. Trujillo ensure that the problem is treated at its source. The plaque that’s causing the inflammation and disease is removed entirely.

All-On-4® Procedure

If you have multiple missing teeth and you’d like to have them all replaced with permanent implants, an All-On-4® procedure might be exactly what you’re looking for. Dr. Trujillo has been offering this treatment for quite some time and they’re the ideal replacement for people who have been struggling with dentures.

Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

There’s a range of cosmetic dentistry procedures offered by Dr. Trujillo, so if you’re not happy with the appearance of your smile, you might want to consider some of the fixes he can offer. If you want a straighter or brighter or even more consistent smile, he can help you with that.

General & Preventive Dentistry

One of the most important things you can do for your teeth is to simply take care of them on a day-to-day basis. If you do this, you can make sure that no unnecessary problems arise in the future. Regular checkups and a good cleaning are the foundations for good oral and dental health going forward.

Bone Grafting

Bone and gum grafting are treatments that can be necessary for people who want to have implants fitted. If the bone is weak and not strong enough to support the implants, a bone graft must first be carried out, and the same concept applies to the gums.

Gum Recession Treatment

Gum recession treatment is made necessary when a person has experienced gum disease that has started to cause the gum line to recede. This can be carried out in many ways and is essential because it prevents further periodontal disease from developing and taking hold.

LANAP

LANAP is a new form of laser gum surgery, and it’s a cutting-edge procedure that offers alternative treatment for periodontal disease. It removes harmful bacteria without causing any damage to the healthy gum tissue. Dr. Trujillo is an expert at using this technology to produce positive outcomes for patients.

The office team is great, as is Dr. Trujillo. He’s skilled and also compassionate. This recent visit I was using a cane and he personally walked me to my car.
