Welcome to Our Periodontal Office

Welcome to the practice of Dr. Mario J. Canal and Dr. Bernard B. Calem. We are a group of highly trained periodontists in Medford and Moorestown, New Jersey who are dedicated to giving you the finest and most attentive care possible. We look forward to meeting you. We will walk you through each step of your periodontal treatment.

Periodontal disease is responsible for over 75% of all adult tooth loss in the United States.  If you have been referred to our office by your general dentist, it is very likely that your periodontal infection has progressed beyond the mild stage.  Please call our Medford office at 609.953.3700 or our Moorestown office at 856.439.1200 at your earliest convenience.

On your first visit to our office, we will give you a thorough examination and discuss our findings.  Our treatment recommendations tend to be conservative.  We want you to be completely informed of your choices before proceeding with care.

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by our receptionist, who will guide you through the New Patient Paperwork, and alert the clinical team that you have arrived. In a timely fashion, a Surgical Assistant will be out to seat you in one of our state of the art operatories. At this time, you will meet Dr. Canal or Dr. Calem for a complete comprehensive examination. Following the examination, Dr. Canal or Dr. Calem will consult with you and review your x-rays to form his diagnosis for treatment. Our New Patient Coordinator will discuss your financial and treatment options to get you scheduled promptly. Our dedicated and highly trained staff will help to make this dental experience as comfortable and pleasant as possible.

Our goal is to work closely with your general dentist to help you maintain your natural teeth for a lifetime.  We hope you find this website a helpful introduction to our practice.  If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to give us a call.  Delaying treatment can have serious consequences.
