What are you proud of in your practice?

As co-founder and owner of Advanced Periodontics & Implant Dentistry with his brother Daniel, Dr. Richard takes pride in the family ethos and environment of his practice. Everyone from front desk staff to the Ivy League trained dental specialists to the patients that walk through the office's front doors is treated as he would his own family. This service provides one-of-a-kind comfort to each patient. When patients arrive, it's like saying "welcome home, let's get you back to smiling."

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?

For Dr. Nejat, it's always been patients first — it's not the case, it's the person in need of help. That's why his favorite cases to treat are those that involve patients in need of serious restoration, especially as a result of advanced periodontal disease — the kind of issue that could be fatal if left untreated. Helping restore not only the aesthetic value of these patients' but the longevity of their lives is a large part of the reason Dr. Nejat operates.
