Today’s Dental Network, a leading multi-specialty dental practice network and support organization to dental providers in Florida, has officially formed a partnership with Contemporary Periodontics & Implant Dentistry, a state-of-the-art facility in St. Petersburg, Fla., led by Michael R. Tesmer, DMD, MS. Contemporary Periodontics is the fifth periodontal practice in the TDN network and the first practice in the St. Petersburg, FL market, marking the company’s vision to expand both its specialty practice and geographical reach.

“We believe partnering with top specialty practices serves as a key entry point to expanding TDN’s footprint into new geographical markets,” says Kevin Krause, DMD, chief executive officer for TDN. “As a premier periodontic practice in the St. Petersburg market, Dr. Tesmer and his team are a great fit with TDN’s multi-specialty model. We are delighted to welcome them to our growing network.”

Established in 1997, Contemporary Periodontics & Implant Dentistry is a state-of-the-art periodontal dental practice providing the latest treatment options available to patients, including advanced dental implant care, periodontal plastic surgery for receding gums, aesthetic crown lengthening and laser periodontal therapy, for over 25 years.

“We’ve known both Dr. Tesmer and Dr. Langston for quite some time and have admired their commitment to clinical excellence, advanced periodontal therapeutics, and outstanding patient care,” says Ryan Taylor, DDS, MS, head of periodontics at TDN. “The addition of Dr. Tesmer, Dr. Langston, and their team not only expands TDN’s periodontal offering, but it also further raises the bar with the addition of two top clinicians to our partnership network.”

“Our partnership with TDN enables us to elevate our clinical excellence, as well as grow the practice,” says Michael R. Tesmer. “We will continue to manage the clinical side of the practice, while Dr. Langston, myself and our team gain access to administrative support. We are also looking forward to the collaboration with Dr. Taylor, Dr. Krause and the other highly skilled doctors and surgeons in the network.”
