The VCU Department of Periodontics specializes in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease in modern comfortable facilities to patients of all ages.

Our residents receive training in all aspects of periodontics, including implantology and conscious sedation, and predoctoral dental students participate in the delivery of advanced periodontal treatment modalities.
