Cosmetic Dentistry

Orthodontics
An in-house orthodontist straightening smiles with braces and Invisalign clear aligners for kids, teens, and adults across St. Bernard Parish.

Nitrous oxide and oral sedation for patients who would rather relax through the appointment than white-knuckle it. No judgment, just calm.
Endodontics
Root canal therapy that stops a toothache at its source and saves your natural tooth, handled in our office instead of a specialist across the river.

Not Sure Which Service You Need?
You are not expected to diagnose yourself. Most patients call us with a symptom, not a treatment plan: a tooth that twinges, a denture that rocks, a child overdue for a checkup. The exam comes first at 9020 W. Judge Perez Dr., and your dentist lays out what they found in plain language along with every reasonable way to fix it, cheapest sensible option included.
If it hurts right now, skip the research entirely. Walk-ins and same-day emergencies are part of how this office has always run, Monday through Saturday. When you are ready, call 504-277-4401 and let the front desk point you to the right chair.
What makes the card grid above possible is who sits behind it. Louisiana Dental Center keeps a pediatric dentist, an orthodontist, and oral and maxillofacial surgeons on staff, which means the care chain from a toddler’s first visit to a grandparent’s implant consultation never leaves this building. In a parish that rebuilt itself around self-reliance after the storm, that independence matters to us, and we think it shows in how patients are treated here.
Built Around a Working Parish’s Schedule
Every service on this page runs on hours that respect how St. Bernard Parish actually lives: Monday through Thursday 8 to 4, Friday 8 to 3, and Saturday 8 to 1. Teachers, refinery shift workers, fishermen, and retirees all find a window that works, and when a Saturday morning is the only slot you have, we are open for it. Walk-ins are welcome across every day we run, and same-day emergency time is set aside rather than squeezed in as an afterthought.
Payment works the same practical way: most major dental insurance plans accepted, Medicaid for children, and CareCredit and Sunbit financing for anyone who prefers monthly payments. Nothing about getting dental work in Chalmette should require courage, a second job, or a second office.
What “We’ll See You…Today!” Actually Means
Plenty of practices advertise friendly service. Our motto goes further: it promises access. When you call before the day fills up or walk through the door hurting, the default answer at this office is today, not next Thursday. That promise shows up in practical ways, from exam slots reserved for emergencies to a front desk trained to triage your call instead of reading from a calendar.
It is also why the services above pair the way they do. A same-day extraction flows into sedation if you need it; a cosmetic plan waits patiently while preventive care gets your gums healthy; an implant consult happens with the surgeon who will place the post, not with a stranger reviewing your X-rays for the first time. Connected care is faster, calmer, and usually kinder to your wallet.
Proudly Rooted in St. Bernard Parish
Louisiana Dental Center is locally owned, and our sponsors and partnerships run toward the things this community already loves: the Saints, LSU, and the parish schools and ballfields that fill up on weekends. We chose Chalmette on purpose, and we have kept this office independent on purpose, because decisions about your care should be made across the chair, not handed down from a corporate office three states away.
Whether you need a child’s first cleaning, a teenager’s braces, a bad tooth handled before the weekend, or dentures that finally fit, the door at 9020 W. Judge Perez Dr. is open six days a week. Come meet the team your neighbors from Arabi to Poydras already know.
