Meet Dr. Neema Bak, Periodontist in Valley Village
Dr. Bak is a specialist in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry — the visiting implant authority at Rite Dentist for advanced bone, gum, and implant work.
He earned his DDS and PhD from Florida State University, where his research focused on Bone Biology — the foundation of every successful implant. He completed subspecialty training at the University of Southern California (USC), and currently serves as Director of the Biomedical Implants and Tissue Engineering (BITE) program at USC’s School of Dentistry.
Dr. Bak is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry, and a member of the American Academy of Periodontology and the Academy of Osseointegration. His work on bone graft and tissue engineering has been published in leading dentistry journals, and he is regularly invited to present at international symposiums.
At Rite Dentist, Dr. Bak places dental implants using 3D CT-guided planning and biocompatible zirconia and titanium options. He is widely recognized as a leading dental implantologist in Valley Village and across Los Angeles.
What Dr. Bak Treats at Rite Dentist
Dr. Bak focuses on the cases that require a periodontist’s training and an implantologist’s hands — precision work where the bone, gum, and implant come together:
- ✓Dental implants — single, multiple, full-arch
- ✓Bone grafting and ridge augmentation
- ✓Surgical extractions
- ✓Gum grafting and soft-tissue work
- ✓Guided implant placement (3D CT planned)
- ✓Crown lengthening
- ✓Pocket reduction surgery
- ✓Frenectomy
Rite Dentist is equipped with 3D CT imaging, digital implant planning software, and laser treatment — the same tools Dr. Bak teaches with at USC.
Research, Teaching, and Languages
Dr. Bak’s PhD work in bone biology informs every implant case — how bone integrates with titanium and zirconia, what graft material survives best in different jaw positions, how soft tissue heals around the abutment. His published research has shaped how implant cases are planned in operatories far beyond ours.
He speaks English and Farsi, and visits Rite Dentist on a monthly schedule. Because slots fill quickly, we recommend booking a consultation early — call (818) 766-7776 to ask about his next available date.
