Dr. Plaut specializes in periodontal treatment and surgery, implant surgery, sinus surgery, as well as bone and soft tissue grafting. He takes a comprehensive approach with each patient, focusing on their entire mouth and general health as much as their oral wellness.

He keeps an individual’s periodontal needs in mind while assessing their endodontic, restorative, and prosthodontic needs as well. It is not uncommon for Dr. Plaut to work in coordination with multiple dental specialists to extend the highest standard of expertise and care during treatment. He is currently a member of the American Academy of Periodontology.
