“Had an unexpected need for a tooth extraction and implant. Didn’t love it but Dr. DiMatteo and the full team at University Periodontal were FANTASTIC throughout all of it! Great credentials, great work, great bedside manner explaining things, easy to follow process, billing, etc., and the team scheduling and working with me were professional, easy to reach, and flexible. Highly recommend them!”

“I recently had my initial consultation with Dr. Erick E. Di Matteo at University Periodontal Associates in Houston, and it was a great experience. From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming, and I was seen right on time. Dr. Di Matteo took ample time to thoroughly explain my periodontal situation, discussed treatment options clearly, and made sure I understood everything without feeling rushed. His calm, knowledgeable demeanor put me at ease, and I felt comfortable like a valued patient, not just another number. I highly recommend this practice for anyone needing a skilled and caring periodontist.”

“Have been a patient for many years and I keep coming back because I trust them! They are personable, thorough and they verbally & visually walk you through their decision process and/or recommended treatment options. And if not needed (as in my case, last visit) they explain the ‘all good’ to you instead of prescribing a Rx or scheduling an unnecessary next visit and I look forward to my next visit w/them (whenever that might be).”
