Restore and Enhance the Natural Beauty of Your Smile in Jacksonville
Gum health is the foundation of your smile.
Our goal is to maintain your teeth and gum health using the most effective care and advanced treatments available.
Gum disease (periodontal disease) affects millions of people each year and is one of the leading causes of tooth loss among adults. Unfortunately, most people do not know they have gum disease until they start to experience severe pain or loose teeth. Gum disease may exhibit few symptoms in the early stages and is often overlooked unless routine dental visits are upheld.
Our practice focuses on surgical and non-surgical therapies to remove any infection in your gums, replacing missing tissues with gum or bone grafts, and treating missing teeth with dental implants.
Here are a few warning signs and symptoms that can help you determine if you need to see a periodontist for evaluation and treatment:
- Red, swollen, or bleeding gums while brushing and flossing
- A chronic bad taste in your mouth or chronic bad breath that returns even after brushing
- Recession in your gums or pockets between your teeth and gums
- Teeth that feel loose or have shifted out of their normal alignment
- Pain experienced within, around, or underneath your gums
We take pride in going above and beyond
to ensure your convenience and comfort.
Your Trusted Expert in Treating Gum Disease
We treat gum disease at almost every stage, but treatments become more extensive and costly the further the disease advances. Early detection allows for the easier and less expensive treatment. Visiting OakTree Dental regularly is the best way to ensure the prevention of advanced gum disease.
We offer these periodontic services:
Bone Grafts Near You
Bone graft surgery is a great way to replace or augment lost bone and encourage natural growth. You may need a bone graft to create a stable base for dental implants, stop the progression of gum disease, or make your smile pleasing.
Oral Cancer Screenings Near You
Doctors diagnose more than 30,000 people with oral or oropharyngeal cancer each year, and almost 10,000 people die each year due to the disease. Our Jacksonville dentist specializes in looking for signs and symptoms of the disease.
Dental Implants Near You
Experts consider dental implants the gold standard tooth replacement option because they are as stable as natural teeth. An implant restores both the crown, or the visible part of a tooth, and the root. While no dental restoration can completely simulate a living tooth, implants are the closest to the real thing.

For patients who prefer a pill form of sedation, oral sedation offers a simple solution to dental anxiety. Take a prescribed medication before your appointment to feel calm and relaxed throughout your visit. While you'll remain awake and able to respond, many patients remember little of their treatment afterward. Available on some procedures, oral sedation provides a moderate level of sedation without the need for needles. Learn more about oral sedation options.
