Willamette Dental has the capability to provide most required oral health services within our own offices.
Most specialty services, when determined to be necessary by the primary doctor of record, can also be provided
in Willamette Dental offices. Specialty services that are not available through Willamette Dental offices are
normally available through referral to a specialist within the local dental community in accordance with limitations
and exclusions of individual plans.
Periodontics - the specialty in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of
the gums, and other tissues surrounding the teeth.
