Dr. Kum and his staff are awesome! Dr. Kum stays up to date on the latest treatments. He is conscientious and provides the care I need. He does a great job of explaining how to treat issues with my dental implants and he takes the time to answer my questions. I feel lucky and blessed that he and his team are providing care in Wyoming.

I am thrilled to have found Dr. Kum. He has and is helping me with a few different issues including an implant. His patient first attitude is so appreciated! Your mouth’s long term well being is his priority, even if it means delaying his own procedure and sending you back to your dentist to fix something HE found that he thinks has a higher priority… something that would have given him more business if ignored! He in congenial, and his knowledge is so evident, even in general conversation, as he refers to current study results pertinent to your treatment and explains your options along with their pros and cons. There is no such thing as a silly question in his office. Every query is taken seriously and explained. He can explain on a technical level, or bring it down to layman’s terms, which ever you are more comfortable with. And if you bring up something he is not familiar with, he will look into it and share his opinion. I don’t feel like I'm ‘just a patient’ to Dr. Kum. I feel like a person he truly cares about.

Dr. Kum must be the nicest guy in the business. Not only that, but he and his staff are professional, personable, and efficient. The Doc is amazingly gentle and conscientious. I personally loathe dentistry as my history is full of horror stories, however, it is probably because I didn’t have doctors like Kum. Had an implant affixed and would recommend Dr. Kum and his office for anyone in the same predicament without reservations.

I went by just as the office closed to grab paperwork and he spent a half hour of his time to make sure that my teeth were taken care of. He just went above and beyond for me more than any doctor has ever done for me.

Dr Kum went over everything with me and was very concerned. He helped push me toward getting my teeth checked and come in after a long while of not having gone. Would highly recommend his practice! I had Callie do the teeth deep cleaning. She was very friendly and made sure I was comfortable in the chair and wasn't hurting. She was highly knowledgeable and was keeping everything in a cheery mood and had some really awesome bangers on while working on my teeth. I will keep them as my primary for anything related to teeth. They work with you if you don't have any insurance as they are more concerned about the teeth. Schedule and book your appointment today!

Cheyenne Periodontics is a periodontal specialty practice located at 1401 Airport Parkway, Suite 110 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The practice focuses on periodontics and dental implants, with services that range from dental implant placement to cosmetic periodontal surgery and tissue grafting, along with the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease. Patients considering implants can find information on the practice's website about replacing missing teeth, implant placement, options for people missing all of their upper or lower teeth, implant supported overdentures, and bone grafting procedures such as ridge augmentation, sinus augmentation, and socket preservation.
Beyond implant care, the practice offers scaling and root planing, periodontal maintenance, crown lengthening, guided bone and tissue regeneration, and oral cancer exams. Cheyenne Periodontics works alongside referring general dentists, and its website describes combining periodontal procedures with cosmetic dentistry from a patient's own dentist to improve the appearance of short or receding gum lines. The office is open Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and is closed on Mondays. The practice accepts CareCredit financing and provides pre-operative and post-operative surgical instructions for patients online.
