Our Specialists
Patricia Kingston, DDS
Patients who previously had to travel to a different location for implant placement or specialized periodontal care can now be treated right at our office. Our visiting Periodontist, Dr. Patricia Kingston, is available to see patients several times a month or upon request.
Dr. Kingston provides a number of specialized services to our patients including comprehensive periodontal rehabilitation and surgery. Through her expertise, patients are able to prevent early tooth loss and the resulting expense of replacement dentistry. In situations where patients have already experienced tooth loss, Dr. Kingston also provides the foundation for natural tooth replacement by placing strong, secure dental implants.
Dr. Kingston is trained in sedation and pain management and patients are routinely amazed with the ease of their appointments.
"Naturally, I had some apprehension about having an implant placed but I couldn't believe how easy the appointment turned out to be. Dr. Kingston is so caring and called me at home to make sure I was feeling OK. I went out to dinner the very next day with my boyfriend's parents. It was no big deal" - Lisa.
Dr. Kingston graduated cum laude from the College of St. Catherine with a BA in Biology and minors in Chemistry and Education. After earning her Doctor of Dental Science Degree from the University of Minnesota, Dr. Kingston practiced in downtown St. Paul for a number of years, during which time she was also a clinical instructor at the dental school. Returning to the University as a student yet again, Dr. Kingston completed her Masters of Science degree in Periodontology in 1994. She is an active member of the American Dental Association, the Minnesota Dental Association, the American Association of Periondontist and the Minnesota Association of Periodontists.
