Alex Lopez, DDS
Alex Lopez, DDS has a deep commitment to Periodontics, is a gifted surgeon, and brings over 20 years of experience to our practice. Dr. Lopez is a graduate of Northwestern University Dental School and then went on to specialize in Periodontics at the University of Southern California. Dr. Lopez is one of a unique group of surgeons who is board certified in both Periodontology and Implant Surgery. Dr. Lopez stays current with the latest technology in his field and is a proponent of computer assistant implant surgery. This aids in precise placement of dental implants and leads to ideal results both surgically and restoratively. In many cases, this minimizes the extent of surgery that needs to be performed, and thus, a faster recovery for the patient. Dr. Lopez brings to his craft an undeniable confidence and strength, combined with a gentle bed side manner. This makes a visit to the Periodontist informative and comforting. Dr. Lopez is a proud father of two, an avid golfer, and is in the process of becoming a decent Salsa dancer with his wife Julie of over 20 years.
