Dr. Rana Shahi, DDS
Dr. Rana Shahi founded LA Periodontics with a clear goal: to bring specialist-level periodontal and implant care to patients across Los Angeles who deserve more than a general dentist can provide. A second-generation periodontist, she combines rigorous surgical training with a genuinely warm chairside manner, and leads a practice that has earned 240+ five-star patient reviews across Google and Yelp.
Education & Training
Philosophy of Care
Dr. Shahi believes specialist periodontal care should feel as comfortable as it is precise. She built LA Periodontics around that idea, pairing state-of-the-art implant and grafting techniques with a practice environment designed to put anxious patients at ease. She stays active in multiple study clubs where periodontists and restorative dentists collaborate on complex treatment plans, and she regularly completes continuing education to keep pace with new technology and materials in implant dentistry.
Outside the office, Dr. Shahi has volunteered her dental skills on humanitarian trips to Tanzania, Mexico, India, Guatemala, and Cambodia, work that she says shapes how she treats every patient who sits in her chair, whether they are receiving a single implant or a full-mouth rehabilitation. When she is not treating patients, she enjoys hiking, biking, reading, and traveling to experience new cultures and cuisines.
