Advanced Periodontics, Microsurgery & Implantology Of Seattle

Dr. Richins and staff are simply wonderful! I have spent quite a bit of time with Dr. Richins and staff since last spring. In that time, I had extensive work done not only by Dr. Richins but by my endodontist as well. Through all of my procedures (gum grafting, root canals, root surgery, exploratory surgery), I never felt a thing and my recovery times were minimal with very little discomfort.
The entire office is so friendly and caring which really helped put my extreme anxiety at ease. The office even coordinated an appointment with one of my endodontic appointments on a different floor of the building thus saving me an extra trip downtown.
Dr.Richins has worked closely with my endodontist and dentist regarding treatments so everyone was in the loop. Before these ongoing issues started I was horrified of all schools of dentistry but after all these procedures, I really don’t get anxious or nervous about going to the dentist which is just of a flipping miracle in my opinion. If possible, I would have all of my dental work and cleanings done here.
I have recommended AdvancedPerio to friends and co-​workers and will continue to do so. I really can’t say enough good things about Dr. Richins and staff.

Dr. Bradley is fantastic! He did a crown for a front tooth that I had lost a while ago and he did such a perfect job that it’s hard to know which of my teeth is fake and which is natural. He is a perfectionist and I recommend him without any reservations. I am a pain as a patient because I demand perfection; I was very strict and wanted a beautiful and natural tooth. And he delivered! His implant was so perfect that the dentist who installed the crown (Dr Veigl) said it was very easy for him to do his job since Dr. Bradley’s was exact and precise and incredibly good.
I hope I don’t see him again because it would mean I need another implant but if I do, even if I am back in the East Coast, I will certainly fly here to Seattle to see him so he can work on my teeth.
Beside his professionalism, he is very nice and kind. Everybody at that office is very sweet. I can say that I miss them all. And what crazy person misses to visit the dentist office?

This place is high tech and excellent at making its clients comfortable. I have major dental anxiety and recently had to come in for a consult and extraction prior an implant. Dr. Weinstein is highly skilled and does a great job at explaining the process, etc… on the day of the procedure I had no discomfort at all. I also had no swelling or bruising. That same evening later at home I received a call from Dr. Weinstein to check on me. Who does that? Anyway, this place is excellent and I would not hesitate to ever go back for any tooth needs my normal dentist cannot do.

I don’t want to be biased, but I will be honest. I do work for Advanced Perio. The doctors here are incredibly kind and caring. They honestly have our patient’s health and care as their number one concern. Working for them is rewarding and makes it easy to come in every day and put your best effort forward. If this office is the one you choose know that you will be in good hands.

Preparing to have a crown lengthening was one of the most traumatic event of my adult life, so I can’t believe anything could compel me to give a 5 star rating, but Dr. Weinstein and Advanced Periodontics earned it.
Dr. Weinstein was tremendous. From my first visit to the procedure and afterward, I felt he was on my side and cared deeply about me.
He understood how incredibly anxious I was, calmly addressed my fears and provided options. He was a great presence during the procedure on a Friday, and made sure I had his cell number for the weekend in case of emergency. In addition, he called me on Saturday just to check in.
The procedure went as planned, without significant pain during or afterward, no infection or troubles. A week later I called about some discomfort, and Dr. Weinstein stayed late so I could come in so he could address it (which he did, easily).
I have never felt so cared about by any health care provider in my life.
In addition to Dr. Weinstein, both dental assistants did a great job. The first, Melanie (I think) was very knowledgeable and calming and truly helped me feel better. The second, who I think may have been new to the practice, also did a good job.
Dr. Weinstein has my absolute recommendation.

Dr. Jansen Richins and his team are some of the most highly respected periodontists in the state of Washington. The majority of the top rated general dentists on Unilocal in Seattle refer patients to Seattle Perio because of their expertise, quality of work and genuine regard for their patients well-​being.
Donna and the rest of the staff are a pleasure to interact with and provide the highest level of customer care and service.

I had my perio surgery about 9 months ago with Dr. Butler. Because I am a little dental phobic, I was apprehensive for my procedure, but all went well! He did an amazing job and his assistant Melanie was excellent and helped to calm me and alleviate my concerns. They were a great team and my mouth feels wonderful.
The office itself is warm and inviting. I had a few problems parking (I am not use to parking downtown Seattle) and I had to wait 15 minutes the first time I went, but otherwise a positive experience.

I’m more than impressed.
Dr. Weinstein is amazing. Absolutely and genuinely kind. He asked questions, explained the procedure, and was patient with my nervousness. His assistant was super helpful, too. They are a great team, those two (sorry — I can’t remember her name).
So why 5 stars? I mean, 5? Really?
Really.
Dr. Weinstein had given me a form with post-​care instructions, and included his personal cell number to call in case of an emergency. Murphy’s Law: I lost the form, and I needed to speak with him. And it was 10pm. But being the consummate professional (with what is apparently a cosmic awareness of his patients’ needs), he actually called ME to check on how I was feeling. Talk about fortuitous. I did have a few questions (I was feeling a little nauseous), and he talked me through all of my concerns, making it clear I should feel free to call him regardless of the hour.
This is one of those situations when 5 stars aren’t enough. Two thumbs way, WAY up. I will be recommending him to anybody and everybody. This doc is the real deal.

I had a procedure here about two months ago. It went fine, I liked the doc (Richins), and the work seemed to be fine … so why only a 3-​star review?
I was having pain near the area where the procedure was performed, and I called this morning with a few simple questions. The call rolled over to voicemail, which announced that they were «with other patients.» I left a message around 9 a.m.
Noon passed, 1 passed … I left another message. I tried posting an inquiry to their Facebook page around 2 asking how I could get a hold of someone. I emailed them around 3 asking them if their office was closed. NOTHING. No one called me back, and I have yet to speak with a real person. And now it’s after business hours.
They should have done at least ONE of the following:
— had a receptionist let patients know when to expect a return call
— indicated in their voicemail when patients can expect a return call
— included an emergency number in their voicemail message
— ANSWERED THE DAMN PHONE AND MY SUPER-​EASY QUESTION
My issue is not urgent, but what if it was? I would hate to get into a sticky situation and have to rely on these people. If you go here, just hope that you don’t have any complications.
UPDATE: I finally received a call, and the staff person apologized for not setting the voicemail system up properly (it should have provided contact and closure information, but didn’t). It doesn’t sound like this situation is likely to happen again, but if you are a patient here, BE SURE TO SAVE YOUR POST-​OP INFO. Otherwise, you may not be able to get a hold of your doctor when you need them.

I adore Dr. Butler! No one likes to go to the periodontist, but I always leave his office with a smile on my face (sorry about the pun).
Everyone in this office is nice, patient and welcoming. The staff seems to enjoy the clients and each other and creates a warm and enjoyable atmosphere. I am also impressed that during each one of my 9 visits to this office, the dentist and hygienists have started and finished my appointments on time. A doctor that is on time? Now THAT deserves 5 stars!
