I went here for a gum graft in 2024. I am still fighting with them about my balance. At the time of service, I was quoted $1,889 as my portion, and I paid that full amount promptly. I trusted that this represented my complete responsibility, especially since their own financial policy clearly states treatment plan fees will be honored for 180 days. Since then, I have received repeated bills over $1,000 and a threat of collections. I've contacted their billing department and sent a letter with no response. Unfortunately, periodontal clinics don't fall under the No Suprises Act. There are other legal measures I'm now going to have to take. What they are doing is at best unethical if not criminal. Judging by the other reviews and social media posts, this is a recurring theme here.
During the procedure I was not even sedated the entire time. The only reason I went there was because of an extreme dental procedure anxiety.
I would advise to not go here and if you do just plan that they aren't going to quote you correctly and will demand possibly over 1000 on top of what you've already paid. There is also a possibility you will be awake during the procedure.

I was referred to Dr. Will Akin at the Nashville office by my regular dentist for an issue with an implant. Dr. Akin was very professional and also has a charming personality. Although Dr. Akin was not able to help me with my specific issue, he was generous with his time and expertise and referred me to another dentist. I would definitely recommend Dr. Akin.

I can’t sing their praises enough!!! I was so afraid of the dentist but had gotten to the point I had to have work done. Dr Will and his staff were All just amazing walking me thru what needed to be done, holding my hand and calming my nerves. I will be forever grateful to this Brentwood office and staff. Now I am every 3-4 months to get my teeth cleaned by Marci. She is amazing!!
If you need periodontal work done. Go see Dr Will Akin and his amazing staff.

Dr. Akin, Lisa, Pam, and the rest of the office staff were very warm and welcoming (even though I didn't confirm my last two appointments)! One small gripe, mostly because I'm lazy - I think it'd be helpful to receive an appointment confirmation text vs. an appointment confirmation call.

About Nashville Periodontal Group
Nashville Periodontal Group is a periodontal and dental implant practice located at 2000 21st Avenue South in Nashville, serving patients throughout Nashville and Middle Tennessee. The practice focuses on periodontal treatment and dental implant surgery, including All on 4 and full arch implant solutions for patients who are missing some or all of their teeth. Rather than a single doctor, the office is staffed by a team of periodontists who work alongside dental hygienists to plan and carry out implant and gum treatment.
Patients considering dental implants at this location can expect a practice built specifically around periodontal surgery and implant placement rather than general dentistry, which means the clinical team spends its time on procedures like bone grafting, gum disease treatment, and implant supported tooth replacement. The Nashville office is one of two locations the group operates in the area, the other being in Brentwood, so patients booked at the 21st Avenue South address are seeing the Nashville based team. Anyone exploring All on 4 or full arch options should ask the office directly about which of the practice's periodontists will be handling their specific case.
Meet the Doctors
Nashville Periodontal Group's Nashville office is staffed by a team of periodontists: Dr. Will C. Akin, DDS, Dr. Alec J. Temlock, DMD, MS, and Dr. Brian D. West, DMD. According to the practice's own website, all three doctors are listed as providers at both the Nashville and Brentwood locations. Because appointment scheduling can vary, patients should confirm with the office which periodontist will be treating them at the 21st Avenue South address.
