Louisiana Dental Center Chalmette office
Locally Owned& Louisiana Proud

Welcome to Louisiana Dental Center

Proudly Rooted in St. Bernard Parish

From our office on West Judge Perez Drive, just down the road from the Chalmette Battlefield, our dentists deliver complete dental care for every generation. A pediatric dentist, Dr. Hugh Bullard, an orthodontist, Dr. Eric Macaluso, and an oral surgeon, Dr. Lida Mirzai, all practice under our roof, so your family rarely needs a referral across the river.

This parish knows how to rebuild, and we have been proud to rebuild right alongside it. We see fishermen squeezing us in before the boat ramps open and refinery crews stopping by after early shifts, and we keep hours that respect both. Chalmette is the kind of place where your hygienist might also be your neighbor, and we would not have it any other way.

Six Days a Week on Judge Perez Drive

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. Our office at 9020 W. Judge Perez Dr. is open Monday through Thursday 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Friday until 3:00 PM, and Saturday 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Saturdays fill up fast with early risers, so calling ahead is smart.

  • Call us at 504-277-4401 or walk right in. If a tooth is knocked out, keep it moist, avoid touching the root, and get here within the hour. Swelling with fever or facial trauma needs urgent attention, so do not wait.

  • It depends on the tooth and how involved the removal is, and we never leave you guessing. You get a written estimate before treatment starts, and CareCredit or Sunbit financing can turn larger costs into monthly payments.

  • Most patients do well with an exam and cleaning every six months, though some smiles need closer follow-up. Our team sets the schedule around your actual oral health, so small issues never become big repairs.

  • Absolutely. Dr. Hugh Bullard, our in-house pediatric dentist, sees kids here on Judge Perez Drive from first checkups through the teen years. Parents love bringing the whole household to one address.
