The Periodontists
Periodontists in Perth
Not just your specialist dentist, but experts in managing complex gum problems and dental implant needs.
Our Services
Gum Disease
The main cause of periodontal disease is bacteria, which can form either as a sticky, colourless plaque (the layer that the toothbrush can remove) or as hard, dark-coloured deposits. However, many factors can cause periodontal disease or influence its progression.
Gum Grafting
If you’re looking for a gum graft, look no further – we are the practice for gum grafts in Perth. Our periodontist is highly experienced in gum grafting procedures, and our practice has been delivering excellent results for over twenty years. Gum grafts are procedures that aim to either replace missing gum tissue after gum recession (root coverage), thicken existing gum tissue, or achieve both.

About The Periodontists
‘The Periodontists’ was originally established as ‘Applecross Periodontics’ in 1999, with the vision of providing specialist periodontal and dental implant services in a relaxed patient friendly environment.
Dr Samy Francis rebranded ‘Applecross Periodontics’ to ‘The Periodontists’ committing to an exciting and successful future ahead. With this change, he is committed to upholding the clinic’s reputation for providing exceptional periodontal care, ensuring that both loyal referrers and patients continue to receive the high-quality services that they have come to expect.
Opening Hours and Services
Our practice is open Monday to Friday, from 8:00am to 5:00pm. Appointments are required. While most of our patients are referred by other dental professionals for periodontal care, a referral is not necessary. Anyone concerned about the health or appearance of their gums is welcome to contact us directly to make an appointment.
We also offer dental implant placement – a reliable treatment option for replacing missing teeth.
For anxious patients’, patient comfort is paramount. We work with experienced anaesthetists who provide additional anaesthetic services both within our practice and at Southbank Day Surgery in South Perth. Our facilities are fully equipped to accommodate patients in wheelchairs, ensuring a comfortable and accessible experience for all.
