Our Latest Patient Testimonial

I was experiencing discomfort in a tooth and called to be seen today since I have a trip planned starting tomorrow.. The young lady on the phone, Amy, was so nice. Gave me an Ppt for 10:30am. The staff was so welcoming, very professional and thorough. Hygienist, Becca, was comforting and very proficient. Dr Guzman took care of my tooth situation, temporarily; and I will be back for the extraction Oct 31. Very pleased with the services today!!

Our Latest Patient Testimonial

Last year, I was referred to Periodontal Associates of North Florida, and from my very first phone call with them, I sensed that I had found an exceptional place for dental care. Dr. Colon and his remarkable team go above and beyond when it comes to professionalism, courtesy, and genuine friendliness—qualities that are unfortunately becoming rarer in today's world. They make you feel like their sole focus, taking the time to explain and break down the necessary care and treatments in a clear and understandable manner. Eventually, I faced an extensive procedure that involved a corticotomy, bone grafting, and several other components. Needless to say, I was quite apprehensive, as I had heard from others who had undergone even just one of these procedures that it could be quite painful. My anxiety had built up to the point where I almost postponed the procedure. However, I'm incredibly grateful that I didn't. I prayed about it, and from the moment I stepped into the building at 6:30 a.m. on the day of the procedure, I felt a profound sense of calm. The receptionist was warm and welcoming, not treating the early hour as an inconvenience (which can unfortunately be the case at some businesses). Everyone who assisted Dr. Colon during my procedure seemed like angels sent from above. Even when Dr. Colon had to start my IV line, he did so with remarkable skill. I'm typically a challenging case when it comes to finding veins, but Dr. Colon's expertise made it a breeze. Despite the extensive and detailed procedure, which took several hours and was expected to be painful, I didn't experience any discomfort during or after it. Additionally, Chelsea did an outstanding job with the packing. This "family" at Periodontal Associates of North Florida has now become the regular dental care providers for my entire family. If you're someone who has been putting off dental work due to anxiety, encounters with rude and unprofessional staff, or if you're simply looking for a change, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Colon and his team of true professionals.

I'm new to Tallahassee and found myself in need of an emergency extraction. After being referred to their office by my Attorney, I came in the office in a great deal of pain so much so that I couldn't concentrate while completing my intake forms. Amy, the receptionist saw the state that I was in, took me into an office away from other patients, then proceeded to help me finish my paper work in the kindest fashion. After it's completion and gently ushered me to waiting room and advised me to gather myself in the restroom while they prepared for my procedure. Minutes later Amy brought me to the back where I was introduced to Shayla and Shannon. They were so understanding, kind, personable, and comforting as the read the moment and understood that above all else I needed to be relieved of the pain and in a comfortable state of mind before proceeding with the necessary exams (numbed me, provided a warm blanket, offered humor and smiles). Dr. Colon was amazing as well! He made me feel that everything was under control, that he and his crew were more than capable of meeting my immediate needs, and he explained my options as well as what I should expect very clearly. The extraction was quick and painless. The staff made it easy for me to leave quickly as well as payment taken and post-op instructions were given all while I was in the dentist's chair. I'm so very grateful for my experience with the entire crew and will see them again in a couple of weeks. - Jarod Rucker

When to See a Periodontist

Periodontal treatment may be sought in several ways. Your general dentist or hygienist may recommend a consultation with a periodontist if they find signs of periodontal disease through the course of a checkup. You may also decide to see a periodontist on your own, no referral is necessary to be seen at our office.

If you experience any of these symptoms, we encourage you to schedule an appointment at our office without delay:

  • Bleeding while brushing or eating normal foods. Unexplained bleeding while performing regular cleaning or consuming food is the most common sign of a periodontal infection.
  • Bad breath. Ongoing halitosis (bad breath), which continues despite rigorous oral cleaning, can point to periodontitis, gingivitis or the beginnings of a gum infection.
  • Loose teeth and gum recession. Longer-looking and loose-feeling teeth can indicate recession of the gums and/or bone loss as a result of periodontal disease.
  • Related health concerns. Patients with heart disease, diabetes, osteopenia or osteoporosis are often diagnosed with correlating periodontal infections. The bacterial infection can spread through the bloodstream, affecting other areas of the body.
