I had a gum and bone graft by Dr. Hegde in December of 2023. I had heard of horror stories regarding having a gum graft, but this wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected. Dr. Hegde and her assistant were so thoughtful with numbing my mouth and reassessing regularly as I seem to metabolize local anesthetic a little faster. The recovery process was just tedious, but not terribly painful after the first day. Dr. Hedge really prepared me with the steps to take with my daily recovery and realistically what to expect. If I had questions, the office staff was very prompt to respond. Cynthia, the office manager, has always been so dependable with communication and working with my insurance. She is so cheerful and professional. Dr. Hegde has been wonderful with courtesy follow-up visits to check on the status of my graft.

Such a positive and smooth experience from start to finish. I had my wisdom tooth removed, along with a bone graft, and it was painless—something I honestly didn't expect for that kind of surgery. I also appreciated that the doctor didn't overuse medication and explained each step. Highly recommended.

Extremely disappointed with my experience at this practice. In just 3 visits, they managed to exhaust my entire year's worth of dental insurance benefits, something that has never happened to me with any other dentist or procedure in my life.

The first visit was a consultation, which they billed my insurance for. The second was a deep cleaning, which I expected to be charged for. The third was a follow-up check to see how my gums were healing and they billed for that too. I wasn't warned upfront that these visits would consume my annual maximum.

The real problem hit when I went to my regular hygienist for a routine cleaning 6 months later, only to be told my dental benefits were completely depleted and I would have to wait until next year. A simple routine cleaning, something I've always been able to get is now out of reach because of how aggressively this office billed my insurance in such a short window.

I strongly recommend asking this office for a full cost estimate and insurance breakdown BEFORE agreeing to any treatment plan. I wish someone had told me that.

I had such an excellent experience at Alpen Periodontics! The team was professional, caring, and took the time to explain everything. Cynthia (the office manager) was incredibly kind and so thorough in gathering all of the details around my insurance coverage for the procedure (it was really nice not having to worry about any of that!) Dr. Rachna Hedge was absolutely fantastic and made me feel so comfortable during the consultation and gum graft. My graft went smoothly, recovery was so much easier than expected, and I’m very happy with the results. I HIGHLY recommend Alpen Periodontics and Dr. Rachna Hedge (I have even already personally referred them to a friend needing the same procedure done!)

The staff and doctors have been great with explaining things before and after a procedure as well as getting all appointments scheduled with such an unusual work schedule.

Had my second bone graft done around an implant, the first was at a different office. This procedure was 1,000 times better!! Staff is so kind, professional and reassuring. I’ve had 0 swelling and not a single minute of pain post procedure. I wish I would have gone to them the first time!!! Highly recommend Alpen Implants, Dr Hesge and her entire team!!

Outstanding care and compassion
From the moment I walked in, I felt truly cared for. I’ve had bad experiences in the past with dentists and periodontists, and it left me with a hard time trusting anyone. But Dr. [Name] completely changed that for me. She is incredibly skilled, humble, honest, and genuinely friendly. She performed my tooth extraction, cleaned out an infection, and did a bone graft—and I was amazed that I had no swelling, hardly any bleeding, and healed so quickly.

Her staff is just as wonderful. I especially want to thank Cynthia, who showed genuine kindness when my phone stopped working and I couldn’t call an Uber. Even though the office was closing, she stayed with me until I got my ride home. I was humbled by her patience, friendliness, and compassion—it meant so much to me.

I cannot recommend Alpen Implants & Periodontics enough! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. The staff is absolutely amazing—friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. They go above and beyond to ensure you’re comfortable and well-informed every step of the way.

I have had to have two dental bone grafts done here, and I have to say that Dr. Hegde is exceptional! Her expertise and gentle approach made what could have been a stressful experience completely seamless. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly and answered all my questions with patience and kindness. It’s clear that Dr. Hegde and her staff truly care about their patients’ well-being.

The office itself is spotless, modern, and equipped with the latest technology, which only adds to the confidence I feel in their care.

If you’re looking for a periodontist who delivers top-notch care and has an incredible team, look no further. This is the place to go for a healthier smile and a positive experience from start to finish!
