Periodontics & Bone Regeneration

Advanced periodontics, grounded in bone science.

Castle Connolly Top Dentist® 2026

Dr. Gretel Pellegrini is a periodontist and bone biologist who treats the complex, high-difficulty surgeries — full-arch reconstruction, advanced grafting, and structurally difficult implant cases — that many practices refer elsewhere. Her practice is built on the science of bone: she has advised FDA and CE trials for bone regeneration devices.

Dr. Gretel Pellegrini, PhD, DDS, MS

Trained to rebuild what's structurally difficult.

Full biography →

Dr. Pellegrini's approach is grounded in the biology of bone, not just the mechanics of surgery. She holds a PhD in Mineralized Tissues and completed postdoctoral training in bone research — expertise she applies directly to the hardest reconstructive cases: severe bone loss, failed implants, and full-arch rebuilds.

She currently serves as director and scientific advisor on multiple FDA and CE clinical trials for bone regeneration devices, work that shapes the protocols used in her own operating room.
