When it comes to having a healthy, beautiful smile, you can't simply take care of your teeth and ignore your gums and other soft tissues in your mouth. As support for your teeth, your gums are the foundation of a healthy smile, and issues with your gum health (also called periodontal health) can jeopardize your oral and overall well-being.
Two of the most common dental problems are gum disease and tooth loss, and unfortunately, they can also be two of the most devastating conditions as well. These issues can rob a person of their ability to chew and speak properly as well as severely affect their appearance, making everyday life uncomfortable in innumerable ways.
Would you like to schedule an appointment with Dr. Rasmussen? We make the process easier than ever! Then, you simply choose the one you want. With dental office hours that start in the early morning and extend into the evening, we're sure to find a timeslot that works with your busy schedule. We look forward to helping you improve your smile soon!
It seems that technology changes and progresses on a daily basis, and the dental field is no different. The good news is that our team at Periodontics and Implant Dentistry of Tallahassee stays on top of these developments and uses the best technology and techniques available to improve how we treat our patients.
Your teeth rely on your gums to stay firmly in place, so should they develop an infection like gum disease, this can have severe consequences for someone's oral health. Swelling, redness, and bleeding are all early signs of gum disease, but worse problems like gum recession, chronic bad breath, and even tooth loss can develop without the proper treatment.

Bad experience with this office. I canceled an appointment with another Periodontics office in town (waiting only one week, but not in my dental insurance network) because I called Periodontics & Implant Dentistry and they told me that they were in my dental insurance network, but I need to wait for about seven weeks. So, I decided to wait seven weeks and use a provider who takes my insurance.
During the seven weeks we had few communications back and forward regarding my dental insurance information. After seven weeks I showed up for the appointment and they requested payment. When I asked if

I've been fortunate to be under the superb care of Dr. Matt Rasumssen. I'm a retired dentist and I can attest to the top quality of care that he provides.
He is kind, patient, conscientious, and an excellent listener. This is in addition to his being highly skilled and competent. His relaxed manner and humor puts patients at ease.
I also want to give special thanks to the entire staff. They were always cheerful and were dedicated to the dental work being done. It was wonderful to be greeted by happy, warm smiles (which I could feel through their masks) and to be made to feel so

What a wonderful office. I had my first visit yesterday as a new patient! I was overwhelmed by the beautiful office as it appears brand new. I met Dr. Matt and he so friendly and accommodating. I had my cleaning with Angie. She is an absolute sweetheart. She is very good with putting you at ease and making you feel comfortable. You can just tell it’s a well run office when everyone is so friendly and happy. It really shows. Nobody was unfriendly or grumpy. Everyone that I encountered greeted me with a warm smile. I am so excited I found them, not a typical dental office at all. I can’t wait

Excellent care and staff, beautiful, newly equipped office, and great personality of everyone at the office. Imagine my surprise to receive a first time bill in August 2021 (I always ask, do I owe at the end of any visit with any Dr.)for over $400, for services received in March of 2020. Business practices need serious improvement.

Very nice group of people. They were very polite and friendly. I was nervous about the technology at first since I’m not used to the new machinery that they have, but they did a really good job on my teeth. They also informed me of how I can better take care of them in the future which is great.

I had unbearable pain that started over the weekend and needed some serious relief. I contacted Tallahassee Dental Specialist. Dr. Barocio had me come in and access, diagnose and propose the solution. She was able to get Dr. Matt of Periodontics & Implant Dentistry to see me the same day and considering the issue I had, it was a pleasant experience. I still have a ways to go, but knowing that they really have your best interest at heart makes it that more tolerable. Dr Barocio, Dr. Matt and their whole team are such compassionate people. They treat you like family. I am so glad that my husband

Tallahassee Dental Specialists is the nicest, cleanest, and most modern Dental Office I have ever seen.
Priscilla and Raven are very cordial, knowledgeable and professional. The make you feel welcome from the very beginning. It is obvious that they both love their jobs.
Dr. Barocio is extremely pleasant with a wonderful personality. She keeps you well informed of the process throughout the procedure.
My visit was a pleasure from beginning to end
It is easy to see why Tallahassee Dental Specialists is a leader in the industry.

When the people who are providing a service for you create that magic between being incredibly professional and also feeling as if they're treating you like you're one of their own family, I found that with Dr. Matt Rasmussen, along with Skyler and Lauren. Every detail of my appointment was clear. Each step explained, every question answered, some I didn't even know to ask! The office was spotless. The equipment indicative of the high level of investment and commitment to best practices. The time spent was generous and thorough. I have confidence in my upcoming procedures.

Office is staffed with professional, caring staff who are attentive to your care. Doctor Rasmussen was thorough and took his time focusing on my case . He explained the treatment plan and was clear about what he thought was going on in my situation. He will confer with my dentist to coordinate care and their office will accept my County Retirees insurance and let me know what my cost share will be before work is started. Good experience with my visit with Dr. Rasmussen and his staff yesterday and top of the line dental equipment.
