For several years now, Dr. Matt Rowe, a Lexington resident and owner of Southern Roots Periodontics, has provided periodontal care for the greater Columbia area. Having procured an existing practice from retired Dr. Bill James, a highly respected, local periodontist. Dr. Rowe says, “I want my patients to know that, even though the practice itself has been around for 30 years, the ideals of treating patients as we would want to be treated, and respect for our patients as we would want to be treated, and respect for our patients has not changed.”

“A lot of improvements in technology have been added,” says Dr. Rowe. These include using cone-beam 3D imaging, digital x-rays, CO₂ laser therapy, ceramic implants, IV and oral sedation, and platelet rich plasma to promote healing after dental surgery. Each treatment room is outfitted with a television, salt lamps are stationed throughout to purify the air, and the coastal décor is reminiscent of a relaxing trip to a Charleston beach. “I want my patients to feel like they’re coming home, not going to an office.”
