About our practice
All ages, from the first checkup to a full rebuild, in rooms made to feel like a spa.
What sets us apart
Prosthodontists are the specialists for anything that needs restoring or replacing in the mouth. Dr. Perry calls it being the quarterback of the plan: from a single tooth to all of them, he leads the case and the team around it.
Meet your prosthodontist
A sports accident as a boy meant he got to know his own dentist well, and he came away respecting the skill and the compassion of the work. For over a decade he has guided patients through complex treatment, rebuilding mouths to be functional, healthy and beautiful.
Meet your family dentist
As a college freshman she volunteered as an assistant at the dental school, and in her very first session watched a dentist change someone’s self-esteem in one visit. For over a decade since, she has cared for whole families and treats each patient like a close friend.
A people-first team of hygienists, assistants and coordinators, several with a decade or more in dentistry. Melissa, the office manager, has been here since 2015.
Dental services in Ponte Vedra Beach
From a routine cleaning to replacing every tooth, all of it is done here, led by a board-certified prosthodontist and a general dentist.
A first preventive visit takes about two hours, with an oral cancer screening at every checkup. Gum disease is treated before it can cost you a tooth.
Crowns in EMAX, zirconia or porcelain fused to metal, tooth-colored fillings, and every way there is to replace a tooth, from one to all of them.
Cosmetic work planned by a prosthodontist and a general dentist together, with whitening in the office or at home.
Sedation for anyone who dreads the chair, same-day appointments for emergencies, and a proper look at what is behind the jaw pain.
Four implants placed in the strongest parts of the jaw can carry a full arch, often without a long bone-grafting wait, and temporary teeth can go home the same day.
Receded gums are loosened through small openings and guided back over the tooth. No cutting and no stitches, so there is little swelling or bleeding.
Planned in detail by a prosthodontist and made from natural-looking materials, with implant-retained options for anyone whose traditional denture has not worked out.
A professional bleaching solution far stronger than a store kit. It can lift teeth up to eight shades in a single visit, and take-home kits are offered too.
Dental implants & full-mouth restoration
Because Dr. Perry is a board-certified prosthodontist, the whole implant process happens here. Every case is planned on 3D imaging first, and a full arch can be anchored on four implants or on six to eight.

Advanced dental technology
The equipment here is chosen for one reason: to plan every treatment down to the smallest detail, and to finish more of it in a single visit.
How a visit feels
A spa-like office, a team that takes its time, and sedation for anyone who would rather not remember the appointment.
About two hours, mostly with the hygiene team: radiographs, gum charting, photographs with the intraoral camera, and a cleaning. Then a conversation with Dr. Perry or Dr. De Bonis about what you want for your smile.
Nitrous oxide through a soft nasal mask for mild nerves, safe for all ages. For moderate anxiety or longer work, oral conscious sedation: a small pill before the visit that leaves you drowsy but responsive.
Patient-friendly amenities in a calm, bright building among the trees. The practice strives to make each visit feel like a stay at The Lodge & Club.

★★★★★Above and beyond - this is the phrase that best captures both Dr. Perry and his entire team. His care has been pivotal in my dental journey. After knocking out my front tooth as a child, I’ve worked with many prosthodontists over the years, but none have come close to the level of care, precision, and compassion that Dr. Perry and his team offers. …Montserrat R.Google review
