Gum graft from pallet to lower gums. It's not fun and you have to be very careful during post-op and follow directions explicitly, which I did. The pain is not so bad, and I took Darvocet (which is extremely constipating so be sure to drink plenty of fluids and get liquid fiber - and don't reply on a constant diet of ice cream! - Becausee ice cream is constipating too and I ended up in the ER I was so blocked!) Be prepared to do nothing for a few days. But Dr. Blanton's staff were extremely good at explaining and emphasizing the post-op directions. She also called me on Sunday to check to see how I was doing.
The stitches and dead skin will slough off which is freaky, but I called Dr. Blanton's beeper on a Friday night 9 days after surgery, and she called me back in 5 min to assure me.
The procedure itself was painless. They knock you out with an IV drip. She got the vein immediately and I had no bruise or anything to know there had been an IV in my arm.
She and her staff are completely professional a SO EXPERIENCED. There is no substitution for that level of knowledge.
If you need a periodontist - go to her.
Dr. Blanton's office filed the insurance claim for me but is out-of-network. It was worth the investment!
About Hygienist: The best! My teeth have not been cleaned so well in years - and again - completely professional, no-nonsense, and highly trained and experienced.

Dr. Blanton and her staff are a total class act from start to finish. Dr. Blanton has the finest credentials you could ever want. Her staff has remained the same the entire time I've gone there with the exception of maybe 2 employees who moved out of the area. This tells you a lot about her and her pracatice. I've had multiple gum surgeries and an implant as well as continuing maintenance care. I could recommend her or her staff more highly. I'd trust her to deliver my baby except I'm 64 years of age.
About Hygienist: ditto as above - superior in personality as well as skill.

I found Dr. Blanton to be very professional with a great chairside manner. She found and treated a deteriorating bone condition in my mouth that went unnoticed by my dentist of 10 years. I will forever be grateful!!

Dr Blanton is an extremely thorough, excellent dentist. Although I was referred to her for an implant, her staff paid very close attention to my gums and other dental hygene. She is a friendly, empathetic professional. I highly recommend her.
