4 weeks agoAbout a year ago, my life changed in the most beautiful way thanks to Dr. Aalam and his extraordinary team! I was referred to Dr. Aalam by my dentist for full-mouth extractions and dental implants, and I’ll be honest, I was absolutely terrified. I didn’t know where to turn or what to expect. But from the very first consultation, Dr. Aalam gave me something I hadn’t felt in a long time: hope. He took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, patiently, and with such kindness that my fear slowly turned into confidence. He never rushed me, answered every question, and made sure I truly understood all the steps. I felt heard, respected, and genuinely cared for. The surgery itself and the healing process were remarkably smooth, something I never thought I’d say about such an extensive procedure. I experienced zero pain, and the outcome exceeded every expectation I had. From the placement of my temporary teeth to my final delivery, every follow-up visit was thorough, gentle, and done with incredible attention to detail. Throughout this entire journey, my daughter accompanied me to every appointment. She witnessed first-hand the professionalism, urgency, compassion, and expertise that Dr. Aalam and his entire team consistently demonstrated. From the front desk staff always being warm, organized, and highly professional in coordinating appointments, to the clinical team who patiently answered questions and offered constant reassurance - every single person went above and beyond. It is always a pleasure walking into this office and being greeted by such friendly and attentive members. There is also one particular moment we will never forget: shortly after my implant surgery, Dr. Aalam had an unexpected emergency and needed to fly out of the country. Despite this, he personally made sure to deliver my teeth himself before leaving to ensure everything was perfect and that I was okay. I don’t know many professionals who would do that under those circumstances. That level of dedication, integrity, and compassion speaks volumes about the kind of doctor and person Dr. Aalam is. Dr. Aalam is not only an exceptional periodontist; he is kind, honest, and trustworthy. From the moment you speak with him, you know you are in the best hands. He has a rare way of making you feel like you’re talking to a trusted friend who genuinely wants the very best for you. Today, over a year later, I am celebrating not just a new smile, but renewed confidence, comfort, and quality of life. My daughter and I will forever be grateful for the care I received here during and after my surgery. This review may be long overdue, but our gratitude has always, and will always, live in our hearts. ❤️❤️ If you are looking for top-tier periodontal and implant care done right, with compassion, excellence, and integrity, do not hesitate. Dr. Aalam and the Center for Advanced Periodontal & Implant Therapy are truly the best! With heartfelt appreciation and gratitude, — Seta and daughter 🙏🙏🙏

3 weeks agoI highly recommend this office; you won’t regret coming here. In fact, you’ll want to tell your family and friends. Dr. Aalam is great. He listens intently and truly cares, making you feel more like an old friend than just a patient. Professional, patient, and authentic are just a few words to describe the wonderful experience. Today was my second visit, and I had a deep cleaning that required anesthesia. My dental hygienist, Ava, was awesome. She has the hands of an angel and was both gentle and patient. I'm already telling everyone I know about this practice!

2 months agoDr. Aalam is absolutely the Best. I had avoided periodontal gum surgery for YEARS and had several consultations. His Professionalism, expertise, care and presence are extraordinary. He went over every detail, and the office staff are ALL amazing. I had no doubt or fear whatsoever prior. The surgery was seamless.. I had a potential issue days later and he responded within minutes to my call, with care and kindness. I couldn't be any more grateful for having the surgery, and with Dr. Aalam. 🙏

a month agoDr. Krivitsky is tremendous - I would highly recommend her and this practice to anyone in need of periodontal care! Due, in large part to, some bad dental advice in college to use a natural toothbrush, I required a conventional gum graft ~30 years ago. Over time, my gums slowly continued to recede, and it was time to do something again. Remembering the pain and long healing time from that graft (sourced from the roof of my mouth), I went looking for alternatives. Although I live in Florida, I travel frequently for business and the combination of positive reviews and their Rejuvagum Lift procedure brought me to Dr. Krivitsky. One tooth had so much recission that I ended up needing a small graft in addition to the Rejuvagum Lift, but both procedures were outstandingly successful. I paired my Rejuvagum Lift with a series of hyperbaric oxygen treatments at nearby Aalto Hyperbaric, which I think was helpful in the healing process. While it varies from person to person, I didn't get much bruising from the Rejuvagum Lift, but I did have significant swelling in the lower jaw - which made me look a little bit like Richard Nixon or Brando in the Godfather for several days. Further, although I was nervous about the small graft (given my first experience), I followed Dr. Krivitsky's recommendation and was happy with the outcome. She sourced the graft from a healed wisdom tooth pad, which doesn't have many nerves. Again, I was impressed. I've recommended Dr. Krivitsky to others (family, friends and business partners) who have gum recission or need technical periodontal work.
