    Periodontist Costs in Boston, Massachusetts (2026)

    Approximate price ranges — may vary by provider and insurance plan

    ProcedureTypical Cost
    Periodontal consultation + charting$0 – $200
    Scaling and root planing (per quadrant)$150 – $450
    Full-mouth debridement$150 – $400
    Periodontal maintenance cleaning$150 – $300
    Gum graft (connective tissue, per site)$828 – $4,140
    Crown lengthening (per tooth)$1,000 – $3,000
    Osseous surgery (per quadrant)$1,000 – $3,000
    Laser periodontal therapy (LANAP, per quadrant)$1,000 – $2,500
    Bone grafting (per site)$345 – $4,140
    Antibiotic placement (per site, Arestin)$35 – $75

    Prices sourced from myspecialtydentist.com's periodontal-treatment-cost guide (periodontal maintenance cleaning, osseous/flap surgery per quadrant, Arestin antibiotic placement), its dedicated LANAP guide ($1,000-$2,500 per quadrant), and its gum-surgery-cost guide (crown lengthening, quoted as a $1,000-$3,000 total range rather than broken out strictly per tooth); plus truedentalcosts.com's Boston, MA-specific estimator pages for gum graft surgery ($828-$4,140) and dental bone graft ($345-$4,140). Scaling and root planing (per quadrant) uses the national authoritydental.org range ($150-$450/quadrant), which is consistent with truedentalcosts.com's Boston-specific full scaling & root planing figure of $276-$1,104 across up to four quadrants. Two items -- periodontal consultation + charting, and full-mouth debridement -- had no verifiable published figure found in this session, so they are honest estimates, flagged rather than invented. Ranges reflect Boston, Massachusetts pricing as of 2026 in USD; Boston fees likely run at or above the upper end of national ranges given the region's cost of living. Dental insurance often covers a portion of non-surgical periodontal treatment; surgical procedures may have separate annual maximums. Always obtain multiple quotes from local providers.

    How to Choose a Dentist in Boston

    Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

    If you want routine or family care

    Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

    If urgency matters

    Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

    If affordability matters most

    Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

    Questions to ask before booking

    • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
    • Are you taking new patients right now?
    • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
    • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
