Sandra Newman Savannah Periodontics has been part of my dental routine for about 6 years.. Very professional. In fact, I drive all the way from Greenville, SC, for them to care for my teeth.
5 /5
Twains Ghost Dr. Turner and her staff are very considerate and professional. Dr. Turner takes the time to explain everything and to alleviate any concerns. As a dental-phobic patient I really appreciate her empathy and understanding. I have no reservations about getting the work done as recommended.

Sarah H Savannah Periodontics is only dental office I’d recommend for anyone with dental anxiety.
First, I should say that I had a very traumatic experience with an emergency dentist when I was on vacation on the West Coast and ever since then, I am a bundle of nerves when I have to have any sort of dental procedure.
When I met Dr. Kube (pronounced Q-B) she assured me that she and her team would take every single measure to soothe my worries before the procedure. She kept her promise and did exactly that.
I was given a pre procedure pill to take the “edge off” but the morning of my gum graft, I was so wound up, I didn’t feel like it worked at all. When I got the procedure room, Dr. Kube reassured me that she would explain everything she was doing before she did it and she began to numb my mouth. Even though she was exceptionally gentle, calm and patient, I couldn’t help feel panicked, (the experience I had with the dentist I visited on vacation had let me that shell shocked.)
Dr. Kube went above and beyond and invited my husband to sit beside me during the gum graft so that he could help me calm down and communicate what was being said / done to me. ( I am hard of hearing and rely on lip reading to communicate and it is understandably stressful when masks obscure the mouths of those speaking.) Both Dr. Kube and her assistant Melisa were so gentle with every single part of the process. When I shed a few tears during the numbing process, they gently wiped them away ( which really shows that they care about the patient and not just getting the procedure over with.) When Melisa helped me out to our car, she noticed that I was cold and she put my hood up over my ears to keep me warm. ( It’s the little things like this that really set this office apart.)
While the first few days after the procedure were a bit rough pain wise, the pain medication I was prescribed was very effective and I was able to sleep and recover without issue. The after care instructions covered all the bases with regard to healing / managing pain. ( Trust me when I say to follow the icing directions- it really helps with swelling. ) A few days after the procedure, Dr. Kube personally texted me to make sure all was going well - which I thought was a really lovely personal touch.
And the after care didn’t stop there, any time I had a random question about the healing process ( e.g. How long does the bandage on the roof of my mouth stay on? Am I able to drink warm tea? etc.) the office staff Katherine, Megan (and a few other lovely gals that I was a bit too drugged up to remember the names of ) cheerfully and quickly gave me the info I was looking for.
Long story short: As someone with severe dental anxiety, believe me when I say: Dr. Kube is an exceptional periodontist and she has my complete trust. Not only is she exceptionally skilled, but she is also so kind, gentle, reassuring and thorough in her care planning. A perfect 10/10. Not only do I whole heartedly recommend her, I will be going back to complete additional procedures with her, which for me, is the highest compliment I could possibly give.
