Welcome to Wasatch Perio in Salt Lake City

MVPerio’s Salt Lake City location, Wasatch Perio, provides specialist periodontal and implant care led exclusively by Dr. Thunell. As a locally owned practice, we take pride in offering a personalized, patient-first experience—without the structure or pressures often associated with large corporate dental groups.

This location reflects a long-standing commitment to thoughtful, specialist-led care focused on gum health, dental implants, and long-term oral stability. Patients are given the time to understand their condition, ask questions, and feel confident in their treatment decisions.

Precision, Planning, and Patient Understanding

Periodontal and implant care requires careful diagnosis and a clear understanding of each
patient’s needs. At our Salt Lake City location, treatment is guided by:

Comprehensive Evaluation and Imaging

We begin with a thorough clinical examination supported by advanced diagnostic imaging to accurately assess your oral health and identify underlying concerns.

Evidence-Based Planning

Every treatment plan is carefully designed using the latest research, proven techniques, and clinical guidelines to ensure safe, predictable, and effective outcomes.

Conservative Treatment Philosophy

Our approach focuses on preserving natural teeth and tissues whenever possible, recommending only the treatments that are truly necessary for long-term health.

Clear Communication at Every Step

We explain findings, options, and procedures in simple, understandable terms so you feel informed, confident, and involved in your care decisions.

Respect for Patient Comfort and Anxiety

We prioritize your comfort by creating a calm environment, offering gentle techniques, and providing supportive care for patients who feel anxious about treatment.

We take the time to explain findings, answer questions, and help patients feel confident in their care decisions.
