What Our Amazing Patient Have To Say
Shawna Wilson
"Dr. Billinger is the consummate professional. From Dorothy who helped make my appointment to his procedural assistant Sara, it is clear Dr. Billinger and his practice prioritizes patient care. I had some gum overgrowth on my upper teeth due to braces, and I came across his work on TikTok and was extremely impressed. Through a virtual consultation, I was recommended a frenectomy and gingivectomy on my upper teeth, and I couldn’t have chosen a better practice for this procedure! He is very attentive, thorough and informative throughout each step, and ensured this procedure would be as painless as possible. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Billinger & Practical Periodontics to anyone in need of any service to their gumline! A truly outstanding service"
