We offer high tech equipment in an inclusive whole body approach to periodontal therapy.

Although many people do not like to go to the dentist, we strive to make your visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We strongly believe that our patient’s comfort is an important part of quality dental care. We treat all of our patients with the same high standard of treatment, respect and compassion we would expect for ourselves and our families. We take great pride in having our office environment feel like “home” to our staff and our patient family.

Dr. LaSalle believes that your right to choose a periodontist is an important freedom. We work closely with your dentist, but a referral by a dentist is not required to visit our office. We also welcome referrals from patients and friends. We provide sound support for our patients by inspiring them to achieve optimal periodontal health; with education, as part of their general dentist team of quality care.

We offer our services to patients of all ages and endeavor to achieve a non-threatening, warm atmosphere that is especially kid friendly.

We are extraordinarily proud of our staff, which is comprised of caring and dedicated professionals. They ensure that the patient’s surgical and administrative needs are met as efficiently and smoothly as possible.

What Is A Periodontist?

A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease and in the placement and maintenance of dental implants. Periodontists are experts in the treatment of all forms of periodontal disease, including gingivitis, periodontitis, and gingival recession. Periodontists are often considered the plastic surgeons of dentistry. If you are looking to improve your smile, a periodontist may be able to help.

The American Dental Association recognizes periodontics as one of the nine specialties of dentistry. Periodontists receive extensive training, which now includes three years of additional education beyond dental school.
