Periodontists and Implant Specialists in Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Advanced testing and targeted treatment for bad breath that keeps coming back.
We were the first in the U.S. to introduce laser periodontal therapy. No one in the world has more experience with this technology, and we have stayed on the leading edge of advances over the years.
LANAP treats gum disease around natural teeth. LAPIP does the same for dental implants. Both are FDA-cleared laser therapies that remove bacteria and promote healing without cutting or sutures.
Patients experience less pain, shorter recovery, and excellent long-term results. Many who were told they needed surgery or implant removal have been able to preserve their teeth and implants with our care.
We are a family-owned periodontal practice that has served the implant and gum health needs of Broward County for over 50 years. Our concierge-style care means you get personal attention, advanced technology, and a team that truly listens and knows your name.

Her professionalism, kindness, and expertise are truly unmatched. She takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, answers all of my questions with patience, and gives me helpful tips to improve my oral health. Not only is Cindy incredibly knowledgeable, but she also has a gentle touch, making the cleaning process smooth and pain-free. She is also amazingly thorough. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about her patients and takes pride in her work. My teeth have never felt cleaner, and I actually look forward to my visits thanks to her warm and friendly approach.

Dr. Dan McCawley and his team are the absolute best! I just finished my 6-month follow-up and cleaning after undergoing LANAP laser treatment and an implant removal surgery. The entire healing process and follow-up care have been incredibly smooth. Adriana handled my cleaning and was excellent—so thorough, gentle, and attentive to my comfort. Dr. McCawley's expertise in advanced procedures combined with such a caring, supportive team completely takes the stress out of periodontal care. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier results and a truly comfortable experience. Thank you Dr.McCawleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, or failing implants are often signs of serious infection. Left untreated, these problems can lead to extractions or implant failure.
At the McCawley Center for Laser Periodontics & Implants, we help patients keep their smiles intact. We treat the infection at its source using minimally invasive laser therapy that saves both natural teeth and implants, even when others say they can’t be saved.
We welcome second opinions and are proud to offer alternatives when surgery or removal seems like the only option.
Bad breath is often caused by bacteria that live deep in the tongue and throat, releasing gases that produce strong odors. These bacteria can’t be removed with brushing or rinsing alone.
We use advanced diagnostics and patented instruments to treat the source directly, including tongue disinfection and targeted antimicrobials.
This is not a temporary fix. Our goal is to resolve the root problem so you can breathe and speak with confidence again.

Receding gums can leave teeth sensitive and visually longer. The Pinhole Surgical Technique is a minimally invasive option that allows us to reposition gum tissue without scalpels or sutures. This gentle approach helps restore a natural, healthy gum line with minimal discomfort and fast recovery.

In addition to treating gum disease and infections, we also provide expert dental implant placement, including full arch dental implants for patients with extensive tooth loss.
Our advanced diagnostics and laser-assisted surgical approach help ensure long-term success and faster healing.
