A member asked:
I have had gum ulcers, pain and discomfort almost permanantly for months now and would like to be referred to see a periodontist in port elizabeth?

Not here: This is not a referral site. From 8,000+ miles away I don't know any Dentists in Port Elizabeth. This is a site to provide general health care information. If you have ulcers/pain/permanent discomfort you have a significant problem and need to see a Periodontist immediately. Your General Dentist can make recommendations, or you can call the local Dental Society for a list of Periodontists.
