Frequently asked

Periodontists in Utah: questions

  • How are these periodontists in Utah ranked?
    The ranking weights NPPES record completeness, CMS Medicare enrollment, MIPS quality scores when available, and HRSA HPSA service. Of the 10 listed, 2 are Medicare-enrolled and 0 practice in a dental shortage area. We do not accept payment for placement.
  • Do periodontists in Utah accept Medicaid?
    Utah's Medicaid program is Utah Medicaid. Specialist participation varies. We surface Medicare enrollment as a public-program proxy on each profile, but the only authoritative answer comes from the office and the Utah Medicaid provider directory (https://medicaid.utah.gov/).
  • How do I check a periodontist's license in Utah?
    Use the Utah Dentist & Dental Hygienist Licensing Board license-lookup at https://dopl.utah.gov/dentist-dental-hygienist/. Confirm the license is active and check for any disciplinary actions.
  • When should I see a periodontist instead of a general dentist?
    Bleeding, receding, or persistently red gums; A diagnosis of moderate-to-severe gum disease (periodontitis); Loose adult teeth with no other obvious cause.
