If your gums bleed when you brush, feel tender, or you've been told you have gum recession or bone loss, finding a qualified periodontist in Coral Springs is the next right step — and you don't have to look far. At Coral Springs Smiles, Dr. Payal Anand, DDS, brings advanced periodontal training and 16+ years of hands-on experience to patients right here in Coral Springs, Florida, treating everything from early gum inflammation to advanced periodontal disease and implant complications.
Many patients searching "periodontist near me" or "periodontist near Coral Springs" are dealing with pain, bleeding, or a diagnosis they don't fully understand. This post introduces you to Dr. Anand, explains what periodontal care at Coral Springs Smiles actually looks like, and helps you decide when it's time to book a visit.
Who Is Dr. Payal Anand, DDS?
Dr. Payal Anand is a graduate of the LSU School of Dentistry, where she also completed a subspecialty fellowship in periodontics — advanced, focused training in the diagnosis and treatment of gum disease, bone loss, and the tissues that support your teeth. She is a member of the American Dental Association (ADA), the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), and the Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (ACD).
Over more than 16 years in practice, Dr. Anand has treated 10,000+ patients and placed 2,000+ dental implants, giving her a depth of clinical experience that matters when your gum health and the long-term stability of your teeth are on the line. She combines periodontal precision with a calm, unhurried chairside manner — patients consistently describe her as thorough, gentle, and easy to trust with more complex treatment.
Periodontal Services Available at Coral Springs Smiles
As a periodontist near Coral Springs, Dr. Anand offers a full range of gum health treatments under one roof at our periodontics page, including:
- [Scaling & Root Planing](/scaling-root-planing) — a deep cleaning below the gumline that removes plaque and tartar buildup and smooths root surfaces so gums can reattach and heal. Learn more on our scaling & root planing page.
- [Deep Cleaning](/deep-cleaning) — for patients with early to moderate gum disease who need more than a routine cleaning. Details are on our deep cleaning page.
- [LANAP® Laser Gum Treatment](/lanap) — a minimally invasive, laser-based alternative to traditional gum surgery that targets diseased tissue while preserving healthy gum. See our LANAP treatment page for how it works.
- [Peri-Implantitis](/peri-implantitis) Treatment — specialized care for gum and bone inflammation around dental implants, an area where Dr. Anand's implant experience directly supports better outcomes. Read more on our peri-implantitis page.
- General [Gum Disease Treatment](/gum-disease-treatment) — for patients at any stage of gingivitis or periodontitis. Visit our gum disease treatment page to learn about your options.
Because Coral Springs Smiles also offers laser dentistry more broadly, many periodontal procedures can be done with less discomfort and faster healing than traditional methods — you can read more on our laser dentistry page.
Why Gum Health Matters More Than Most Patients Realize
Gum disease doesn't just threaten your gums — left untreated, it's a leading cause of adult tooth loss and can affect the bone that holds your teeth (and implants) in place. Dr. Anand's periodontal fellowship training means she's specifically equipped to catch early warning signs — bleeding, puffiness, recession, or bad breath that won't go away — before they progress into something more serious. At Coral Springs Smiles, every periodontal evaluation is paired with a clear explanation of what's happening in your mouth and what your treatment options are, so you're never left guessing.
