Specialty Practice.
Dr. Moshrefi
& Dr. Daneshmand
Board-Certified Periodontal & Implant Specialists
MD Periodontics is a board-certified periodontal and dental implant specialty practice in Beverly Hills, California, co-led by two of Los Angeles’s most credentialed periodontists, Dr. Abdy Moshrefi, DDS, MS, and Dr. Nazanin Daneshmand, DDS. Both are board-certified specialists in periodontics and dental implantology, having completed the rigorous three years of advanced surgical training beyond dental school that defines the periodontal specialty, and together bring more than two decades of combined practice serving the Beverly Hills and greater Los Angeles community.
Dr. Moshrefi is nationally recognized as one of the country’s leading specialists in Zirconia and Ceramic dental implants, Titanium implant placement, guided bone and tissue regeneration, and All-on-X full arch reconstruction, attracting patients from across the United States who are seeking a metal-free, biocompatible alternative to conventional implants. Dr. Daneshmand, a USC-trained, board-certified periodontist, is sought out for her expertise in holistic periodontal care, advanced gum disease treatment, minimally invasive laser therapy, and the periodontal needs of women through every life stage, from pregnancy gingivitis to postmenopausal bone health.
Drs. Moshrefi and Daneshmand co-founded MD Periodontics in 2002 with a singular mission, to deliver specialist-level periodontal and implant care in Beverly Hills that pairs clinical precision with a genuinely patient-centered, whole-body approach to oral health. Whether you are being treated for gum disease, gum recession, bone loss, or a permanent tooth replacement with Titanium or Zirconia implants, you are seen directly by a fellowship-trained, board-certified periodontist on every single visit, never a general dentist, and never a delegated assistant. It is the standard the practice was built on, and the reason patients across Beverly Hills, Bel Air, West Hollywood, Brentwood, and greater Los Angeles continue to trust MD Periodontics with their long term oral and overall health.

Visionaries
Dr. Moshrefi
The Implant Architect
Dr. Abdy Moshrefi’s path to becoming one of Los Angeles’s most respected periodontists began with a simple belief: every patient deserves specialist-level care delivered with honesty, precision, and genuine compassion. After earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and completing his advanced Master of Science in Periodontics, he co-founded MD Periodontics in Beverly Hills in 2002 alongside his wife and partner, Dr. Nazanin Daneshmand, with a vision of building a true periodontal and implant specialty practice where every patient is treated by a board-certified specialist, every single visit.
Over more than two decades, Dr. Moshrefi has become nationally recognized as one of the country’s foremost experts in ceramic and zirconia dental implants, drawing patients from across the United States seeking a metal-free implant solution that combines biological compatibility with natural aesthetics. His approach is architectural in its thinking, every case planned with CBCT cone beam imaging and digital smile design technology, with an obsessive attention to the details that determine whether an implant lasts a decade or a lifetime.
What has never changed is the standard he holds himself to with every patient. He does not believe in rushed consultations, one-size-fits-all treatment plans, or delegating care to less experienced hands. For Dr. Moshrefi, periodontics and implantology are not just procedures, they are a lifelong practice of giving people back something deeply personal, their health, their confidence, and their smile.
Twenty years in this chair has taught me one thing: when you truly care about the whole patient, the results take care of themselves.
Dr. Daneshmand
The Precision Specialist
Dr. Nazanin Daneshmand built her career on a single conviction: dental care must treat the whole patient, never just the problem. After earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree, she completed her board certification in Periodontics and Implantology at the University of Southern California, one of the most respected periodontal programs in the country. In 2002, she co-founded MD Periodontics in Beverly Hills with her husband and partner, Dr. Abdy Moshrefi, building a practice grounded equally in clinical precision and unhurried, deeply personal care.
A defining focus of Dr. Daneshmand’s work is women’s periodontal health, where the connection between oral and whole-body wellness becomes most visible. She is particularly sought out for her care of pregnancy gingivitis and hormonal gum changes, conditions that affect the majority of expectant mothers and carry consequences far beyond the mouth, including links to preterm birth and low birth weight. From perimenopause to postpartum, she guides her patients through the periodontal shifts of every life stage with the same meticulous attention.
What patients remember most about Dr. Daneshmand is the standard of precision she brings to every visit, from a routine cleaning to a complex gum graft. She believes the details others overlook are exactly where the difference between a good outcome and an exceptional one is made, and that earning a patient’s trust is the quiet foundation every great clinical result is built on.
The details others consider minor are exactly where I focus. In periodontics, precision is not optional, it is the difference between a result that lasts and one that doesn't.

FAQ
Dental implant costs in Los Angeles typically range from $3,000 to $6,000 per single tooth implant, depending on whether bone grafting or a sinus lift is required. Full-arch solutions like All-on-4 range from $20,000 to $30,000 per arch. At MD Periodontics, every consultation includes a fully transparent, itemized treatment plan with no surprises. We accept most major insurance plans and offer flexible financing options.
MD Periodontics is Beverly Hills’s only dedicated periodontal and implant specialty practice co-led by two board-certified periodontists, Dr. Abdy Moshrefi and Dr. Nazanin Daneshmand, with over 20 years of specialist experience. Unlike general dental practices that offer periodontal services as a side specialty, every patient at MD Periodontics is treated directly and personally by a board-certified periodontist on every single visit.
Dr. Abdy Moshrefi at MD Periodontics in Beverly Hills is one of the country’s most experienced ceramic and zirconia implant specialists, drawing patients from across the United States seeking a metal-free implant alternative. Ceramic implants offer the same strength and longevity as titanium with superior biocompatibility and natural aesthetics, making them the preferred choice for patients with metal sensitivities or a preference for holistic, metal-free dentistry.
Gum grafting costs in Los Angeles typically range from $600 to $1,200 per tooth, depending on the extent of recession and the grafting technique used. Most dental insurance plans provide partial coverage for gum grafting as it is considered a medically necessary procedure when recession is causing root exposure, sensitivity, or bone loss. At MD Periodontics, we provide a complete, transparent cost breakdown before any treatment begins.
Most patients are surprised by how little discomfort they experience during and after implant surgery. Dr. Moshrefi and Dr. Daneshmand use precise, minimally invasive placement techniques combined with effective local anesthesia, making the procedure far more comfortable than most patients anticipate. Mild soreness for two to three days following placement is normal and easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief. The majority of our patients return to normal daily activity within 24 to 48 hours.
Most patients recover from gum grafting within one to two weeks, with the initial tenderness subsiding significantly after the first three to four days. Dr. Daneshmand and Dr. Moshrefi use minimally invasive grafting techniques that reduce recovery time and discomfort considerably compared to traditional approaches. Full tissue integration typically takes four to six weeks, after which most patients report dramatically reduced sensitivity and a visibly improved gum line.
All-on-4 is a full-arch implant restoration that replaces an entire upper or lower set of teeth using just four strategically placed implants, eliminating the need for traditional dentures. It is an excellent solution for patients who have lost the majority of their teeth or are facing full arch tooth loss due to advanced periodontal disease or decay. At MD Periodontics, Dr. Moshrefi evaluates every candidate using CBCT cone beam imaging to determine the ideal implant positioning for long term success.
In its earliest stage, gingivitis, gum disease is fully reversible with professional treatment and improved home care. Once it progresses to periodontitis it cannot be cured, but it can be very effectively controlled and stabilized with specialist treatment. Dr. Moshrefi and Dr. Daneshmand have helped thousands of Los Angeles patients halt the progression of advanced gum disease, preserve their natural teeth, and maintain healthy, stable gums long term through personalized periodontal treatment and maintenance program
Traditional gum surgery requires cutting and suturing, resulting in longer recovery, more post-operative discomfort, and visible gum recession after healing. LANAP laser treatment uses the Biolase laser system to precisely target and eliminate diseased tissue with no cutting, no sutures, and significantly faster recovery. Most patients return to normal activity within 24 hours. LANAP is FDA approved for the treatment of periodontitis and delivers comparable clinical outcomes to traditional surgery with a fraction of the downside.
No referral is needed to schedule a consultation at MD Periodontics. While many patients are referred by their general dentist or orthodontist, anyone experiencing bleeding gums, gum recession, loose teeth, bone loss, or tooth sensitivity is welcome to contact us directly. Dr. Moshrefi and Dr. Daneshmand will conduct a thorough periodontal evaluation and provide an honest, pressure-free assessment of your situation and all available treatment options.
