Fantastic experience: Jade the front desk receptionist was exceptional and Dr. Koa the Absolute best along with his assistant. If you need a root canal with no pain, go to the best Dr. Koa in Latham.
Fantastic experience: Dr Choi was able to put in an implant where there was very little space. He is a wizard. Highly recommend Dr Choi for any periodontal work you need.
Fantastic experience: Great perio practice. Professional, efficient, and compassionate. Dr Choi is detailed when he evaluates your issue and when he does your procedure. He gives you what post procedure issues are emergencies, what to do, and what you most probably will experience. He goes over your meds and allergies to make your scripts right. Lacey, the nurse, is kind and gives you the support you need, what to do and what not to do. You also get it in writing. My youngest saw Dr Choi many years ago and also had a great experience. The admin staff are nice and they are organized. You know what you will pay for your procedure at your consult. If you need some perio work check out Dr Choi and I wish you success in a healthier mouth.

They have gone out of their way to make my mother feel safe and heard, and the work done has been successful and effective. Parking in the back is a little cramped but it works. The office is really a renovated residence, so make sure you slow down the first time you visit or you might miss it.
Fantastic experience: For someone who is extremely anxious at the dentist, they did a terrific job with my root canal. The dental hygienist (I think her name was Andrea?) was very kind and thoughtful.

Fantastic experience: The staff there were just wonderful. Had a great conversation with them and they made me feel very comfortable. I even met another Disney-head, which made me feel really good. I wasn’t that happy about the $250 hold but after an explanation I guess I understood why they have it in place. It would be nice to get the work done sooner than three months out, but I guess that’s what happens when the state only has one Dentist in the area that takes their insurance. No fault on the Dentistjust the state there.
Fantastic experience: Latham Periodontics receptionist staff, hygienist, x-ray technician, and Dr Choi were personable, patient, courteous when I came in for a scheduled cleaning and examination, updated my personal and medical information. I also, had an updated full mouth x-ray completed it was efficiently and professionally done. A most satisfied customer.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with all levels of the staff for a less than exciting root canal procedure. The front receptionist was very welcoming. When I was moved to the coveted and luxurious dental chair his assistant was very calming and friendly. Once we started the procedure I felt very little discomfort other than the reminder to myself of taking better care of my teeth. When checking out the receptionists were very engaging and polite. I highly recommend this practice for your periodontal needs. It is worth the wait Cheers !
Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff from the minute you walk in the door. Dr Choi is incredibly thoughtful, thorough, methodical, and most importantly, friendly.

The staff is fantastic and friendly too!

Fantastic experience: My regular dentist, who is wonderful, referred me to Dr Choi to take care of an infection and some bone loss close to an implant. Everyone at Latham Periodontal is very friendly and skilled. I know that I will be taken care of professionally and compassionately.
Fantastic experience: Got a root canal done took about 2 hours had 0 pain the whole time the dentist was great at explaining everything in detail prior to doing it and the robber sheet they put around the tooth and your mouth make the whole experience more enjoyable because nothing actually gets in your mouth!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Choi is an amazing periodontist. He and his assistant helped me feel relaxed before, during, and after my surgery. His entire team—from the front desk to the clinical staff—works so well together. They’re a kind, down-to-earth group, yet completely professional when it matters most. I truly appreciate them. If you ever need periodontal treatment, crown lengthening, extractions, bone grafts, implants, or any service they offer, Dr. Choi would be my first choice every time.
