I've had the most POSITIVE experiences with Perio & Implant Center of Monterey. I had a successful Lanap laser surgery 13 years ago, but the pockets had returned and my hygienist recommended I see a Periodontist before my dental insurance ends in a few months. I put it off, and found myself looking for an in-network Periodontist in December. I couldn't find one in the town where I live, so used ChatGPT to find the best one within an hour drive. Dr. Pechak came up in the top two. I was stressed about scheduling before the end of the year, but when I called Dr. Pechak's office, the office manager Melissa was SO INCREDIBLY WELCOMING that I immediately felt cared for. She got me in for an appointment within a week. As I called to cancel the local out-of-network appts I'd made previously, one of them told me their doctor WAS in-network, but when I asked the office manager to confirm with the insurance company, her response was so negative I couldn't imaging working with that practice and decided to stick with Dr. Pechak, even though it meant an hour drive in each direction for each of four appointments. ChatGPT confirmed for me that Dr. Pechak was by FAR the more experienced Periodontist anyway, being board certified and having extensive references to his cutting edge techniques. When I went to my consultation the next week, the office staff was very welcoming (and the office is beautiful too!). Dr. Pechak took a CT of my jaw and quickly informed me that Lanap surgery wouldn't help--the tooth needed to be extracted and bone graft applied to prevent a perforation through to my sinus. Melissa worked with me to schedule the procedure in January so I could wrap my benefits over two calendar years. Being over cautious, I asked the office to submit a pre-authorization estimate to my insurance. I have 100% periodontal coverage, but unfortunately they denied the charge for the bone graft and biological materials. I communicated with Melissa and the insurance specialist and learned that my plan excludes bone grafts. Grrr!! The center's insurance specialist explained it was a contractual exclusion, but that she'd still dispute the denial. (Already, this was SO much more supportive than the local practice who wouldn't even help me verify their in-network status!!!). I again consulted ChatGPT which explained the insurance exclusion more, gave me a script for the appeal to share with the office, and most importantly, reassured me that even paying out of pocket, I'd save a lot of money working with an in-network Periodontist; moreover, working with a board certified Periodontist like Dr. Pechak would save me from future bone and tooth loss. All of this support happened BEFORE I even had my procedure, but my experience on the day of the procedure was also extremely positive. I'd made a dozen calls to the practice before my appointment and they could easily have stamped my file as "difficult patient", but when I arrived the entire office staff greeted me warmly without a hint of impatience. The procedure took only an hour and both Dr. Pechak and the dental assistant coached me through each step, but really, it was painless. I'd read on his website that Dr. Pechak uses a laser to help loosen the tooth rather than yank-and-twist and indeed, the tooth was out before I knew it. I returned home prepared for lots of pain and swelling, but had no swelling whatsoever (!!!!!!!), and only minimal discomfort that was easily resolved with an ice pack and ibuprofen that afternoon. I'm pretty sure my comfort was due to the laser removal technique because other friends have reported pain, swelling and bruising after extractions. I'm two days out now and aside from eating soft foods and refraining from working out, I feel fine. I am SO grateful that I found Dr. Pechak's practice! The warmth and professionalism of the entire office staff, as well as the calm, competent expertise of Dr. Pechak, has been amazing, especially considering how anxious I've been around all the logistics. read more

Have been a patient since 2011 & he's the one His staff is also amazing Maria M has recently helped me out tremendously & I highly recommend Dr P & all who work there Would never even consider going anywhere else..thx to everyone there for years of service read more

Having broken a molar eating my favorite candy I knew the route would be one of two... extraction and implant, but so wanted to save my tooth...my general dentist started the crown prep, once the break was accessed I was referred to Dr Pechak. I opted for the first available which to my surprise and delight was the next morning. I arrived in Sunnyvale to a modern, high tech office, Dr. Pechak is a wonderful, highly skilled, and very professional, I knew I was in good hands. He explained to me what he would do, in order to save my tooth, his team of RDA's were so upbeat and welcoming I was at ease. I returned a week later for suture removal to the Monterey office, so happy to meet with the same upbeat, professional, and respectful RDA!! What a gem she is!! Having been in the dental field for many years I knew what crown lengthening entailed and I was a ball of stress, and nerves. All that was put to rest by a true professional in his speciality, Dr. Pechak. Thank you ALL!! read more

This office is wonderful. Both the doctor and the staff are amazing. I had oral surgery to remove an infected dental implant.

Hands-down the best choice for any sort of oral care in the Monterey bay area! PROs: My wife required some special laser treatments to clean up her gums and teeth from multiple previous surgeries. She has seen half a dozen dentists in two states and still something just wasn't right. She was still suffering in pain and shouldn't have. Maya listened to my wife's story and immediately took her in the see Dr. Pechak. Within a few minutes of a quick exam he diagnosed the problem, came up with a treatment plan and immediately began laser treatments to correct it. CONs: Zero If you need any sort of dental care that it requires a special skill set, this is your best choice. Not only are they top quality, they're also very flexible with your payments and insurance companies. They truly care about fixing you while also and not costing you an arm and a leg. read more

DISORGANIZED. (Monterey office) -They asked me to come in early and then they were 1.5hrs late, -they offered me coffee, I took it, but in a Dental office?? Is that just to make nice due to routine over scheduling? -so after an hour and a half I see the guy. He seemed okay not particularly friendly but not quite gruff, just fine I guess. I expected more positive engagement for procedures that I assumed would require me paying him $1000's. - after the visit they said "oh no charge" and I was thinking, yeah of course no charge, it's a consultation number one, number two I asked about a charge prior to coming in and they were like "oh, I don't know, we'll get back to you" and they didn't, Plus 1.5 hour late, all that says no charge. -after the consultation, I didn't get any email of any kind, no summary of findings, proposed treatment plan, estimation of cost, etc, nothing -but what i did get, about 2 months later, a random text message saying I owed them $127, wtf? you guys are so disorganized. -I really wanted to like this place, reviews great, thorough covid protocols, seemed like advanced, modern technologies but if theyre this disorganized prior to treatment I dont want to know what the treatment would look like read more

Well first off all this place is really really unprofessional the girl in the front of the office (Liz) is so cold and shallow individual when ever I asked a question she would roll her eyes and ignore my questions and she would only be sitting and gossiping talking about a lady named Mya I don't know who she is or why she said all them things about her but common your at work keep it at home or on your lunch I only came in for an exam with dr because he was recommended but with this type of behavior going on it's easy to see their is no foundation in this establishment fat shaming is not appropriate especially me being on the heavier side read more

Years ago my husband knocked out his front tooth. He had a crown but it chipped and had infections. When he saw Dr Pechak we were relieved he would finally receive an implant that would last forever. The exceptional care of Dr Pechak and his dental team are the very best with this dental practice. Once you have made the decision to be a part of their practice you are family. We are so grateful for the care we have received and have recommended to many of our family and friends. We trust the care and the 100% Covid protection you will not find anywhere. read more

Now I understand, Dr Pechak works on the gums and beneath the gums. My regular dentist works above the gums. Dr Pechak has more specialized education and it shows in the professionalism of his entire practice. One thing...he has a very well developed sense of humor...that was unexpected! Dr Jonathan Pellegrin read more

They always exceed my expectations. Very professional yet personable staff. Had one implant done here 5 years ago. That implant looks great and it's rock solid.

Dr. Pechak and his entire crew are the absolute best! I had to have some gum surgery, and I am quite skittish when it comes to dentistry!

Very good experience with the implant. Not disappointed. Very accommodating. Pleasant group.

I went to the Perio & Implant center for a second opinion on an issue I had been having. The staff was efficient and helpful, and after a 3D extra, Dr. Pechak was very helpful in laying out my options for me. In this case, an implant didn't appear to be the best solution, but should ever need one in the future I will definitely be back at his office! read more

The office where I had my appointment did not have any masks and my visit would had to have been rescheduled without your generosity. I appreciate your helping very much!!! read more

Dr. Pechak was professional, kind and very thorough. I had broken a crown and when the dentist took the old crown off realized I didn't have enough tooth to reapply another crown. I needed a gum reduction. When the office called to see if I could get in for surgery, Dr. Pechak's office fit me into their schedule THAT day within a half an hour after my dentist appt. He was gentle and talked me through the whole procedure and has followed me closely to make sure it was a good experience. I would recommend him and his office to any other person needing periodontal work. Tina Del Piero read more
