A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the soft tissues of the mouth and the underlying jawbone which supports the teeth. A dentist must first graduate from an accredited dental school before undertaking an additional three years of study within a periodontology residency training program, in order to qualify as a periodontist.
The periodontist is mainly concerned with preventing the onset of gum disease (periodontal disease), diagnosing conditions affecting the gums and jawbone, and treating gingivitis, periodontitis and bone loss. Periodontal disease is a progressive condition and the leading cause of tooth loss among adults in the developed world.
The periodontist is able to treat mild, moderate and advanced gum disease by first addressing the bacterial infection at the root of the problem, providing periodontal treatment, then providing information and education on good oral hygiene and the effective cleaning of the teeth.

Only had to have one molar replaced, but I am certain that had it been several more, the experience would have been the same. The entire staff was friendly, efficient, helpful and professional. Dr. Grover is wonderful -- generous and caring, so very good at his job. I recommend him and his staff to anyone who needed their services. And if I have to have another procedure, this is where I will go. I am going. Th

Dr. Grover performed 2 grafts on receding gum lines. I had heard many fearful stories of other peoples experiences with these procedures. This was a piece of cake. Dr. Grover personally called me after the procedure to check on me and left his cell phone number in case i needed anything. The entire team was very professional, sincere and kind. I appreciate and highly recommend Dr. Grover!

Dr. Grover and his team are outstanding. From the first visit they have been 100% professional. thorough and friendly. Prior to my procedure, Dr. Grover and Jen walked me through everything he would be doing and everything I would need to do post op. There was no rush or hurry, just a commitment to making sure I knew everything I needed to know prior to getting started. The real surprise was receiving a call from Dr. Grover that evening to see how I was doing. I don't know of many doctors who do that in this day and age.

I highly recommend this office! I went in needing a gum graft done for my recession on my front two teeth. They made me feel at home and comfortable in the chair. Made sure to go over everything and explain in detail what they were doing. I was awake for the entire procedure and they made sure I was completely numb and couldn't feel anything. Great experience and love the whole staff! The evening after my surgery he called and left me a message making sure everything was okay. The next day, to my surprise, I received flowers and a note from them. They went above and beyond what I would ever expect from a doctor/dental office.

Dr. William Grover has been my periodontist for over 25 years. Throughout that time, I've made at least four visits per year to his office and have always found it to run in an excellent manner-- friendly and efficient. Dr. Grover himself is a true gentleman and professional. He's skilled, knowledgeable and caring. Over the years, I've appreciated the way he and his staff follow up after procedures. They truly care about their patients well-being. I highly recommend Dr Grover!

Dr. William Grover and his staff are friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. My mom has been seeing Dr. Grover for more than two decades -- in addition to cleanings several times per year, she's also had several procedures at the office. After those, I've always been so pleased at the level of care and follow-up my mom has received from Dr. Grover and his staff. They have good hearts and always put their patients first. Our family recommends Dr. Grover and his office to anyone in need of a stellar periodontist!

Could not reccomend Dr Grover and his wonderful staff more! Having always been weary of Doctors and even more so dentist. I was extremely nervous going into his office, even having my teeth cleaned has made me Nervous in the past. Between his professionalism and his incredibly friendly staff I felt more than okay to have the procedures done I needed. Not only that but he made it a point to let me know what to expect while I was there, and made sure I was aware of everything that was going to take place. If you're looking for an extremely friendly staff, well knowledged DR, and as close to a stress free experience as they come, this place is perfect! Will be a long time customer for sure!

I cannot recommend Dr. Grover. Don't get me wrong, he did fantastic work on my bone graft in preparation for an implant. My problem with this man is much more personal. I did not accept sedation for my procedure--I didn't have anyone to drive me. I'm a tough cookie, and was willing to be awake and alert throughout. I don't think Dr. Grover is accustomed to this. Why? Because after my "bib" was put on, he laid out his instrument on it, therefore my ample chest rather than a tray. Every time he exchanged his tools, I felt like I was being a groped. A person under sedation, as would be common, would not be aware of this. I don't know what the law is about this, and I don't know what empowerment his assistant felt about objecting to it. It is what it is. I received several letters from his office asking me to make an appointment for an (unnecessary) CAT scan, stating that I would not get the expected results for an implant if I did not return soon. I'm sorry, but I did not get the expected result from from the graft procedure, i.e., being groped, so why would I return? As mentioned, the graft turned out beautifully, according to a dentist who didn't need a full CAT scan to see how the bone solidly filled in. I would avoid this practitioner like the plague. Skill exists, but everything else is completely absent.
