As a welcoming presence at our front desk, Jayla helps ensure that every patient feels comfortable and cared for from the moment they walk through our doors—or speak with us on the phone. We are delighted to have her as a wonderful new addition to our team!

Outside of the office, Jayla brings an impressive passion for the performing arts. A longtime student of both theatre and music, she has appeared in numerous productions, including Law & Order: FTU as Goldilocks, RENT as Mimi, Into the Woods as the Witch; the original musical Camille as Eugenie; Once on This Island as Asaka and Mama Euralie; and The Addams Familyas part of the ensemble.

🦷 September is Gum Care Month! 🪥✨

Healthy smiles start with healthy gums! Your gums are the foundation of your oral health—and caring for them can help protect your natural teeth, support your dental implants, and keep your smile healthy for years to come.

This month, we’re shining a spotlight on the importance of:
✨ Daily brushing & flossing
✨ Regular professional cleanings
✨ Recognizing early signs of gum disease
✨ Treating inflammation before it progresses
✨ Maintaining healthy gums around dental implants

At our periodontal office, we believe prevention, early detection, and personalized periodontal care can make all the difference.
September is the perfect time to give your gums a little extra attention. Because a healthier smile starts below the surface. ❤️

✨ Save Your Smile with LANAP Laser Therapy ✨
Gum disease doesn’t just affect your gums—it can lead to bone loss and, if left untreated, even tooth loss. That’s where the LANAP® laser comes in.

Using advanced laser technology, LANAP targets and removes infected tissue while preserving healthy gums. It also stimulates your body’s natural healing response, helping reduce inflammation and encouraging new bone growth around your teeth—all with less discomfort than traditional gum surgery.

But treatment is only the beginning. To keep gum disease from returning, it’s essential to stay on your periodontal maintenance schedule and continue your regular professional cleanings. These visits help protect your investment in your smile and maintain the healthy results you’ve achieved.

Healthy gums. Stronger bone. A healthier smile that lasts.

📞 Schedule your periodontal evaluation with Dr. Alfred Penhaskashi today and take the first step toward lasting oral health.

✨No scalpel. No sutures. Just your body’s natural ability to heal.

One of the most common questions we hear is, “How can a laser treat my gums without cutting them open?”

The answer is precision. Our PerioLase™️ laser selectively targets infected tissue and harmful bacteria while preserving healthy gum tissue. Because there are no traditional incisions or sutures, your body’s natural healing process can begin immediately - with less discomfort, less swelling, and a faster recovery for many patients.

Laser periodontal therapy isn’t just about treating gum disease and recession - it’s about preserving healthy tissue, supporting natural regeneration, and helping you keep your teeth with a minimally invasive approach.

Healthy gums. Natural healing. Better outcomes.

If you’ve been told you need gum surgery, come see us for a second opinion and ask if you are a candidate for laser periodontal therapy.
