“Exceptional experience. Dr. Balaster was professional, thorough and took the time to clearly explain everything, which immediately put me at ease. The care was precise, gentle and clearly delivered by someone who cares about patients. Highly recommended. ”

“Dr. Balaster and Advanced Periodontics were not my first consultation. Over several months, I met with five other practices for a severe dental condition requiring full-mouth restoration. While those doctors were competent, I never felt the trust or personal connection I needed for a procedure that is so involved and frankly intimidating.
From my very first visit with Dr. Balaster, that changed. Her communication was clear and reassuring. She focused not only on restoring teeth, but on restoring facial aesthetics to what they were before tooth loss. She explained the process in detail, discussed risks honestly, and outlined how those risks are managed through advanced technology, careful planning, and uncompromising clinical standards.
Although some anxiety is inevitable with a procedure of this magnitude, knowing I was in such capable hands made all the difference. I would absolutely choose Dr. Balaster again and am extremely satisfied with my experience.”

After a really bad experience with my previous dentist I was a bit wary of dentists in general. However from the very first appointment I had with Dr. Balaster her knowledge and understanding of my situation put me at ease. Throughout the process I'm currently in of getting a full upper implant she has been readily available to answer any questions I've had and has gone out of her way to to make this process as seamless as possible. I would highly recommend Dr. Balaster to anybody in need of dental work.

I was extremely anxious and had a panic attack during my implant appointment, but Dr. Balaster stayed calm, patient, and made me feel completely at ease. The surgery went smoothly and the crown matches so perfectly I forget which tooth it is.
