SPECIALTIES: The Center focuses on personalized treatment for people with periodontal (gum) disease, missing teeth, dental implants and complications encountered with previous treatment. Our treatment methods are tailored to each patient’s individual needs using innovative and scientifically proven strategies. 

South Florida Center for Periodontics & Implant Dentistry (SFCPID) has provided personalized, state-of-the-art care in Boca Raton for more than 35 years. They consistently work to optimize dental care for their patients through refined skills, innovative ideas and new technology while prioritizing individualized care and customer service. 

“At SFCPID, we focus on restoring and maintaining healthy teeth and gums and beautiful smiles. When this isn’t possible due to decay, trauma or periodontal disease (bone loss), we create new smiles and replace teeth with implant dentistry. We are globally known in implant dentistry to seamlessly replace esthetically sensitive teeth quickly as well as a full arch of teeth in one day. Our first international publication on our methods and results in full arch replacement was in 2001 with a 99% success rate! Today, we are even better,” explains Dr. Jeffrey Ganeles. 

“Our doctors know that suddenly losing a tooth due to a fracture, cavity or abscess is frightening, disorienting and debilitating. Sometimes these teeth can be repaired by your dentist with a filling or a crown. But when they can’t, call us and we can often replace the failed tooth with an implant and a temporary crown the same day. The months-long process from the past to have a tooth replaced is often obsolete. With six dental specialists in the practice, there is always someone on call to promptly address dental emergencies. Appointments do not require a referral; just call the office whenever the need arises!”
