ROOT CANALS

Dr. Stoops and Bollinger are well respected endodontists with a practice in Westlake Village, CA. They consistently utilize Cone Beam CT technology to identify periapical lesions and infections in the bone. We recommend them for any patient that needs a root canal, any patient with an existing root canal treatment that has become reinfected, or any patient with asymptomatic previous root canal treatment that has unresolved systemic inflammation.
GUM DISEASE

IMPLANTS
Periodontist: Dr. Jeremy Wilgus
Dr. Wilgus and his team have offices in Westlake Village, CA and Camarillo, CA. We refer to Dr. Wilgus when a patient has advanced periodontal disease where scaling and root planing has not resulted in a reduction in probing depths, inflammation and calculus removal. Dr. Wilgus has Cone Beam CT technology in both of his offices and is our go to specialist for tooth extractions and implants.
