This office and every staff member in it is constantly going above and beyond for their patients. They provide top notch, unmatched care and are always willing to answer your questions! I couldn't recommend them any more highly. They're truly life changing. Dr Bakuri is one of the most knowledgeable, highly & skillfully trained doctors I've ever had the pleasure of being cared for by. If you're even considering implants or any extensive mouth work/treatment do yourself a favor and call their office now!

My appointment with Dr. Bakuri was as excellent as a tooth extraction could be. He and his staff were all very friendly, professional, and efficient. Dr. Bakuri has a very congenial "bedside" manner and was very forthcoming in explaining what he was doing. I would highly recommend him and his practice.

The entire staff at Greater Pgh Dental Implants and Periodontics are awesome! From the moment I walked into their office inquiring about services, through my treatment, everyone was approachable, professional and actively listened to my questions to ensure my concerns were addressed! The office is clean and the staff are experienced and knowledgeable.
This was a great find on my part, because I was referred to another provider that showed zero interested of my concerns. Excellent care and experience are what you will receive from Dr Bakuri and his team!

The office was pristine and ran flawlessly. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and confident; they made me feel calm and taken care of. Dr. Kian was gentle and communicative and completed my procedure so quickly. For an unpleasant thing, they all made the experience positive and I am very grateful.

Dr Bakuri and his staff are wonderful. I needed gum grafting performed on 10 teeth. Needless to say, I was a bit apprehensive about having this extensive of a procedure completed in one visit. Every person on Dr Bakuri's team was very helpful, patient, and thoroughly explained each step of the process prior to commencing it. They all helped turn a potentially stressful, scary dental procedure into one that went smoothly and painlessly. I highly recommend Dr Bakuri for periodontal procedures!

Dr Bakuri and his whole staff have been amazing through my gum grafting procedure. From the initial consultation, they went over everything thoroughly about what to expect and the follow up care. My actual surgery was painless and smooth. Recovery was good and I've had 2 follow up appointments since I had the surgery last month. My final appoint will be in March. I can't be happier with the results so far, my gums look brand new! And the care and support I received from everyone through the process made all of the difference!

Dr. Bakuri and his staff are absolutely the BEST! There's minimal wait time to be seen. All imaging is extremely quick and onsite. The office opens at 7am so if you ever have a question or concern, you can get ahold of someone extremely quickly. Dr. Bakuri will even text you back if you have a concern over the weekend! This is is only surgeon my DENTIST SAID THEY WOULD SEE IF THEY NEEDED WORK. I now know why, highly recommend!

Thanks to Dr Frye Pgh. Dental took me asap due to infection that needed tended to asap. Before this I have neglected my teeth and what a mistake. I walked in so scared and embarrassed but from the Front desk to all assistants and Dr. Kian I left there feeling better than I had in years. Procedure was pain free from beginning to end I was amazed. Thank You so much for the way you treat your patients, now thanks to all of you I'm not scared anymore.

First rate excellent experience as a first time coming patient. Dr. Bakuri and his office made sure that my they received my records from my previous perio-dentist ahead of time so that they were familiar with my medical history and dental situation. Everyone in the office seems to enjoy working there and they love what they do. I was treated with respect and my evaluation of thorough and my prospects were explained in a plain language.

I needed to have a frenectomy and free gingival graft done. As a dental assistant myself, we refer to Dr. Sam and his associates VERY frequently. He was the only one I trusted for my procedure. Not only did his team take care of me in my time of need, but assured my fiance while discharge what all would be needed to be taken care of. This team is. incredible and beyond any expectation you will have.
They truly make every minute of your time worth it while you're in their chair. I had anxiety going in for treatment, even while knowing exactly what would be done. They still held my hand when needed and assured me every step of the way. This is the only office I will be going to for my perio needs, and it should be yours too.

I highly recommend Dr. Sam Bakuri and his team! I've been to this office several times now for evaluations, a cleaning and yesterday an extraction.each visit has been seamless, organized, informational and everyone is SO KIND! I've been truly impressed with everything. I'm also thrilled that Dr. Sam offers ceramic dental implants as an option! Highly recommend!

I needed 2 teeth pulled as I have to have an upcoming surgery. Everyone was so professional, caring and very nice and helpful. The teeth were extracted and didn't feel a thing. Gave me all information I needed to take care of the extractions and I'm to follow up in two weeks to check that all is healing as it should. Will be going back after my Dr says I can continue getting what the plan is to replace these teeth.

This is a first class practice. I'm "lucky" enough to have needed gum grafts, extractions, and six implants, which I've had done here, among a few other procedures, and I have been in the best of hands every time. Dr. Sam Bakuri follows his predecessor Dr. Weingarden, and is an outstanding surgeon. I've never had a problem with any of his work. The office is very organized and as a patient I always feel cared for by the staff.

I needed an emergency extraction! They were able to get me in right away. Dr. Sam and the entire staff made me feel comfortable, although the dentist office is my least favorite place to visit. The level of detail as to what to expect during the procedure was very welcomed. I asked lots of questions and they provided answers without hesitation. I'll be sure to tell my friends about the excellent service!

Let the buyer beware. Be sure to confirm they are in your insurance network. I was misled by the intake/financial 'team member'. She assured me that my insurance was very good, and should cover most. She never revealed they were not in my network, and it cost me over $2100 for simple extractions and graphs. This is $700 over what the peridontist. in-network charges.
When I called to discuss this I was told that they did not need to tell me they were out of network. Although the insurance 'expert' who took my check said the only problem might be a maximum limit for the year, again, no mention that they were out of network. I was told that I never asked, so it was my fault!

Everyone is extremely friendly and always professional as well. They are timely and efficient and do an amazing job treating my teeth and gums and providing me with updates and information to take the best cate of my mouth. I highly recommend this office
