LA Periodontics & Implant Specialists is led by a team of board-certified periodontists, not general dentists offering implants as a side service, but specialists who have completed years of additional training focused entirely on gum health, dental implants, and the surgical foundations of a healthy smile. Together, our doctors bring decades of combined experience to every consultation, working out of our Wilshire Blvd practice to serve patients across Los Angeles.
Dr. Shahi founded LA Periodontics with a commitment to specialist-level care for every patient. Board-certified with advanced training in implantology, she leads the practice's most complex reconstructive cases.
Dr. Yi brings specialized training in complex implant cases and periodontal regeneration, with a precise, detail-oriented approach that puts anxious patients at ease.
A founder of the practice whose 30+ years of clinical work and teaching shaped the standard of specialist care our team continues today.
A meticulous, evidence-based clinician, Dr. Young focuses on long-term implant and periodontal health, walking every patient through their treatment plan in plain language.
Legacy note moved into the grid.
Our specialists lead the care, but the practice runs on a team of professionals who greet you at the door, prepare your treatment room, cleanse and support your recovery, and quietly train the next generation of dental clinicians alongside us.
