Focusing on Your Oral Health

Our Charleston dental office building

Have you been referred to our office? We work closely with your general dentist to obtain your dental goals.

Your general dentist may have asked you to schedule an appointment with us or requested that you see a periodontist. If so, then you are in the right place! Dr. Laro, Dr. Poston, and Dr. Wade are expert periodontists with years of experience caring for the health of our patients’ teeth and gums.

As a periodontist and implant dentistry office, we help you keep your teeth. If that is not possible, we replace your missing teeth with beautiful, long-term solutions. We achieve this through the use of modern technology, expert techniques, and specialist training. This trifecta allows us to practice high-quality dental care that not only produces amazing results but also makes your visit more comfortable and efficient.

When you visit the Center for Periodontics and Implant Dentistry, you will enjoy:

  • Knowing that we care about you as a person
  • Open and honest communication
  • A comfortable atmosphere
  • Superior periodontics and implant dentistry
  • Predictable and effective care
  • An array of treatment options

There is so much to be excited about at our practice. However, our primary focus is you and your health. We want you to be happy about your time with us and leave with healthy teeth and gums. The impact your oral health can have on your well-being and confidence cannot be underestimated. We are here to help you feel good and look fantastic!

Understanding Your Needs
Through open communication and our unrushed visits, we are able to get to know you as an individual. This not only helps you relax but allows us to address your primary concerns and work within your comfort level. Gaining insight into your concerns means we can make your visit all about you!

Always nice to go here. All the staff is helpful, friendly, and happy! They all help make the best of occasionally difficult and uncomfortable dental work. Jeff Laro is as close to a painless dentist as they come! He keeps you comfortable. Thank you to everyone.
