Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants - Service With Heart And Where Patient Care Comes First

Carlsbad Chamber Of Commerce Business Spotlight

LANAP Laser

Dr. Bembey and Dr. Yokoyama carefully evaluate new technologies as they become available and incorporate those they find beneficial. We have been using dental software to manage our office since 1989. Digital x-rays were added in 1999. Our dental implant patients have 3-D CBCT x-rays taken. These are for the fabrication of 3-D guides for precise implant placement. Biologic growth factors have been a part of our bone and tissue regenerative procedures for almost 20 years.

In the last 20 years, we have seen some amazing advances in dental technology. Let our Dental Specialists tell you more about the latest dental technology and how we use it to help our patients.

Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants

Board-certified periodontist Dr. Kanika Bembey, DDS MS, offers exceptional dental care alongside Dr. Yokoyama, DDS. The goal of the practice is to deliver patient-focused, affordable periodontic care that is tailored to each patient. The Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants team is committed to educating patients about the treatment and prevention of gum disease. Dr. Bembey utilizes innovative technologies and procedures to minimize recovery time and pain in her practice.

Personal Hygiene & Gum Disease

Gum disease is not all about brushing your teeth. Research shows that periodontic health often is related to the body’s inflammatory response. That is why periodontal disease is more common among people with certain health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, and colon cancer. Research has indicated that some people may be genetically susceptible to gum disease. According to the American Academy of Periodontology, gum disease is the eading cause of tooth loss. A treatment plan outlining preventative maintenance is key to long-term care. The treatment plan might include surgery, specialized deep cleanings, or more frequent cleanings with your regular dentist.

There have been many advancements in periodontal care during the past 15-plus years. Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants uses the newest research and evidence-based techniques and procedures, which minimize both pain and recovery time. At Encinitas Periodontics & Dental Implants the patient’s overall health is considered when the treatment plan is created. Our treatment care philosophy includes patient education regarding oral health and addresses which factors affect their gum health, including the body’s inflammatory response.

Encinitas Periodontics – "Service with Heart"

Dr. Yokoyama built a trusted community practice while serving thousands of North County residents in the last 15 years by doing what is right for patients.

“We’ve all heard ‘Our doctors don’t listen to us’ a million times, but this is exactly what we do” said Dr. Bembey. “We listen to you, and it all begins with an extensive initial examination.”

This approach is embedded in the DNA of the clinic. The doctors and staff are driven by a mission of patient-centric service in every appointment. This is best reflected in their many five-star Google testimonials which show their commitment to patient care. Some of the key online reviews patients posted are; “Excellent Care”, “Cutting Edge”, “If you need a periodontist – your search is over”, “She explains everything & Her assistants also made sure I am comfortable”, “Dr. Bembey treats you with both great expertise and great kindness”, “Excellent Periodontist & a true Gem” and “I instinctively knew I was (finally) in the right place with the best Doctor”.

“Our treatment philosophy is driven by a comprehensive approach to dental treatment practiced one patient at a time,” said Dr. Bembey. “We’re totally focused on identifying the best outcomes and solutions for each patient at their first treatment.”

Caring Staff and State of Art Dental Facility

Our office uses the most advanced technology and tools and one such technology is Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure or LANAP. This is a no-cut, no-sew surgery that has excellent results with a faster recovery period than traditional methods. Another technique, Platelet-Rich Fibrin, also known as PRF, accelerates the healing process because we use the patient’s own blood, which is exceptionally rich in platelets, white blood cells and growth factors.

Your Community Periodontists

While our business is periodontics, our commitment to service goes far beyond the dental chair. “We’re connected to the community,” Dr. Bembey said. “Our family lives in Carlsbad and we look for ways to establish roots. One of those ways is by providing dental services to our community over the long term, and building relationships. Another way is to give back to the community by donating time to nonprofits and volunteering regularly at local charities. We plan to engage on a more regular basis to achieve these goals.” The practice also employs staff from the local community and pays a living wage to help bring greater stability and a better-quality life to more local families. Also, we were recently nominated by Carlsbad Chamber for 2022 “Community Impact Award”, a great honor for our small office.

This Doctor is a true healer!

I had a wonderful opportunity to see Dr. Bembey! She really knows her stuff! I felt like she had my best interests in mind and she took her time and listened with an open mind and an open heart. I have some really tough dental issues, and she completely understood everything that I was going through and was able to guide me in the right direction. So great full of for her kindness and compassion.
