Our Periodontal Services
We provide patients in the Collegedale, TN community with a range of services to promote whole, healthy smiles.
Dental Implants
The loss of a tooth can make it challenging to eat your favorite foods or to feel confident when you smile. Dental implants are widely considered to be the most effective option for smile restoration. Implant placement promotes long-lasting, natural-looking tooth replacement, all while preserving the health of your jawbone.
Full Mouth Restoration
No matter how many teeth you have lost, or need to have extracted, you can qualify for full mouth restoration. Our team can replace entire dental arches using just a minimal number of dental implants. You can enjoy a second chance at a full, healthy smile with full mouth restoration.
Immediate Dental Implants
For some patients, we can provide immediate dental implant placement to enjoy a restored smile on an abbreviated timeline. For eligible patients, Dr. Randall can extract unhealthy teeth, place a dental implant, and affix a custom replacement tooth, all in a single appointment.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Traditional dentures remain a popular option for smile restoration. The problem is that dentures often lack the comfort and security patients desire. Implants can be used to support dentures, lending them greater security and preserving the health of the underlying jawbone.
Snap-on Dentures
Some patients prefer the flexibility of snap-on dentures, which are removable for cleaning. Snap-on dentures can sometimes be anchored by dental implants, ensuring a strong and secure smile that maintains full form and function. Our team can provide a range of denture options for patients in Collegedale, TN.
Bone Grafting
One of the qualifications for successful dental implant placement is having an adequate jawbone. If you have lost bone tissue, you can still get dental implants by way of bone grafting. This procedure is performed to regenerate bone material where it is most needed, greatly increasing your chances for dental implant success.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum infections can do a lot of damage to your teeth and your jaw. Thankfully, there are a number of treatment options that have been proven safe and effective, including laser therapy, deep cleaning, medications, and more. We are proud to offer full-scope periodontal care to our patients in Collegedale, TN.
Gum Recession Treatment
Receding gums can impair your confident smile. Additionally, receding gums sometimes result in increased tooth sensitivity or other forms of physical comfort. Proper periodontal care can help curb gum recession and even help regenerate gum tissue where you need it.
Gummy Smile Treatment
A gummy smile is one that reveals too much of the gum tissue and not enough of the teeth. While this is mostly a cosmetic problem, the loss of confidence it can cause is real. Our team provides a full range of gummy smile treatments, including crown lengthening, for our patients in the broader Collegedale, TN area.
Laser Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease, when left untreated, can ravage your oral health, affecting not only gum tissue but even your teeth and jaw. There are a number of ways to eradicate gum infections without the use of invasive surgical interventions. Laser therapy has been proven to be a safe and effective treatments for mediating gum disease.
IV Sedation
At Chattanooga Periodontics & Dental Implants, we prioritize the comfort and safety of every patient. We are pleased to provide IV sedation options to ensure a smooth surgical experience and to prevent you from having any lingering memories of what the treatment was like.
Tooth Extractions
While the goal of oral healthcare is to extend the life of your natural teeth for as long as possible, there may be situations in which a tooth is too damaged or diseased to be saved. Dr. Randall has a proven track record of keeping patients safe and comfortable while extracting non-viable teeth.

Some common treatments include injectable medications like Botox and dermal fillers, which can help smooth over wrinkles and fine lines.
