Dr. Wilson is one of the most knowledgable, personable dental professionals I have ever worked with. His staff is always cordial, but above all else - he is a highly skilled, highly respected professional in his field. If you do research, you will learn that he frequently lectures on periodonal issues and has authored several textbooks in his field. He does not accept insurance - you must file for your own reimbursement. In my opinion, if you're in a situation where you're visiting a periodontist you've reached a point where you need a qualified individual to assess your situation......well worth the dollars spent when you could easily go from preserving your own teeth to wearing dentures.
