I could not be happier with a dental surgery experience . Dr. Dkeidek and and assistant did a good job and worked around my particular needs and issues, such as high novocaine tolerance and an intrusive travel schedule. The support staff filed the insurance claim on my behalf, which not all offices will do any more. Highly recommend. More
Best care I’ve received for an emergency dental procedure by Dr. Issa Dkeidek and his team at the Bellevue office. A special shout out to Svetlana (surgical assistant) for being the best care giver during a very stressful situation and was able to get me in the same day. Louie and Christie were also wonderful! Thank you team! More
I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Dr. Dkeidek, Svetlana, and Louie. I wasn't looking forward to my procedure, but everyone at Premier Periodontics was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and put me at ease before starting the procedure. I highly recommend this practice! More
I am a current happy patient undergoing major dental restoration, and I can objectively attest to the outstanding comprehensive care that I am getting from board-certified Dr. Issa Dkeidek and his team. Add to it, the great location, the state of the art facility, an amazing office team and technical assistants (would not forget to mention the care of surgical assistant, Arina), and you will realize that you made the right choice for your dental care. The valuable experience, Expertise, know how, care and open communication during and after the treatment of Dr. Dkeidek is unparalleled in this profession/field. I am glad that I opted for his professional services and Dr. Dkeidek and his team have all my appreciation and consideration.I highly recommend this office. Thank you to the whole team. More
Dr. Dkeidek and his assistant Svetlana are so kind and gentle. I had bone grafting and implant prep. They were Very professional And kind-hearted about it listening to my concerns. I never felt any of the pain during any of the procedures. I told Dr. D he is a gentle giant with great sense humor. The entire staff from the front desk to the office manager are fun and attentive. Highly recommend this office. More
Dr. Dkeidek and Cindy transformed the last 3 years of Covid and complete ineptitude from the hygienists of my previously beloved dentist. Dr. Dkeidek listened to my concerns and made a bad situation very good. His hygienist, Cindy, is better than my most favorite/competent expert hygienists ever. I can’t thank them enough for their caring, focused and personable attention. These folks are the best! Thank you! Heather Wolfe More
This wasn’t my first visit to the Prime periodontist. Each time I am there I get the BEST service starting from the front desk person Sara to the doctor. Dr. Dkeidek is amazing and he’s really great with his work. He’s done a fabulous work on my sister as well as her husband. Svetlana, his assistant is super helpful and professional at the same time she makes the work place very joyful and I appreciate her so much for her great work ethic. Cheers, Bahar Suseyi More
I am very impressed with the professionalism and courtesy that's Svetlana, Tesla and Dr Dkeidek showed to me. I will come back if I ever need this type of service again and I will not be afraid to refer anyone to premiere periodontics. Thank you everyone. More
Dr Dkeidek has taken great care of me now but also during my first experience several years ago for an implant Professionalism and custom service super apparent. Thank you Tesla and Arina for all that you did throughout Highly recommend this fantastic group from Premier Periodontal More
Great experience with Dr Issa Dkeidek & Surgical Assistant Arina. I’m a returning patient of dr Dkeidek and I knew he is knowledgeable, compassionate and sensitive. Everyone in the Bellevue office is friendly and ready to help. Highly recommend this practice to everyone! More
I had great experience with the Redmond team, Dr Issa Dkeidek, Surgical Assistant Arina and Admin Assistant Tesla were all great. They got me in and out quickly for an implant on the same day of the consultation due to my exceptional situation. The procedure was fast and without any pain. Thank you for your great service! More
Highly, highly recommend Dr. Dkeidek and his amazing assistant Arina for any Periodontics work you may need. Both of them are so professional and made me feel like I was in great hands from first consult through surgery. I was nervous about the procedure, but Arina made me feel at ease immediately. I will recommend this team to all my friends and family (if needed), as I know they will be in excellent hands! More
The whole experience was great, appointments were on time and to the point. Doctor Issa Dkeidek did the procedure professionally and least invasive , his assistant Arina was always cheerful and respectful. The administrative assistant Tesla responded to any of my questions timely and with full details. More
I had two different procedures with Dr Issa Dkeidek, and was very impressed with the quality of his work (and so said my "regular" dentist) as well as quality and friendliness of the staff. Arina, his assistant, was very nice and knowledgeable, helped me navigate through the treatment, before and after procedures. More
Can’t share enough praise about Dr. Issa Dkeidek and his staff, specifically, Azina and Tesla among others. Fantastic communication and ease of conversation. A consummate professional and an amazing office. Most of all, my teeth look and feel great. More
The Premier Periodontics are a wonderful group of professionals that were very helpful in relieving my anxiety for an extraction and implant. Dr. Dkeidek and his surgical assistant, Svetlana, were very proficient before, during, and post surgery by explaining the process and what to anticipate. Dr Dkeidek even threw in some humor for good measure. The entire staff including the front desk were wonderful and amazing and I highly recommend them. More
This place has been phenomenal. They provided excellent care, showed compassion and patience throughout my entire experience. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Dkeidek and my surgical assistant, Svetlana. They were the best. I would recommend them to anyone. More
Dr Dkeidek and his team were friendly, witty, VERY professional, and very detailed in their approach to my dental needs and procedure. They offered a very no-nonsense approach which resulted in dental work which was not at all uncomfortable, surprisingly pain-free, and which made me wonder why exactly I had waited so long for periodontal surgery. More
Dr. Hyun and her assistant Larissa extracted my number 32 tooth yesterday September 21st in Everett. I was so impressed with their expertise and kindness. They were continually asking if I was OK and that gave me great comfort. I would recommend the team to anyone knowing that they would be happy with the procedure More
Highly recommend Premier Periodontics (Bellevue)! I was a patient at the Bellevue office and underwent a dental gum grafting. Was somewhat anxious going into the surgery because I had heard stories from my friends who went through similar procedures. Dr. Issa and Svetlana did an excellent job of outlining the entire process and making me feel comfortable before, during, and after the procedure. Not only did the surgery and recovery go well, but I felt like I was literally a part of the Premier Periodontics family every time I stepped foot into that office. Everyone there is so over the top nice and welcoming; never thought I would feel sad leaving my last check up appt. More
Finding a new periodontist is always an adventure, and my experience meeting Issa Dkeidek proved reassuring. His evaluation of the issues I brought him was thorough and his explanation of how he would address them was clear and direct. Since relocating to Bellevue just before the Pandemic changed everything, I am just now beginning to establish connections with medical professionals nearby. I am very grateful to have found Dr. Dkeidek. More
I was a first time patient coming in with extreme pain and an infected tooth with urgent needs for relief. I got more than just relief when seeing Dr Hyun, Candice and Larissa! Their expertise along with kind spirits and gentleness made an agonizing health matter quickly resolved and I felt at ease! Amy, who works at the front is also a pleasure to schedule with and dealing with any financial questions you have. I highly recommend coming here and look forward to my follow up appointments with them! Thank you so much! More
Highly recommended! Having been a past patient, I knew what to expect from Dr. Dkeidek. The last time I had work done, he was kind and informative, setting my expectations, which made me comfortable with what I needed to have done (a tooth implant). This time my dentist recommended I return for an evaluation of a tooth that would benefit from a gum graft. Once again, Dr. Dkeidek, provided information regarding what I could expect relative to the procedure, recovery, cost/benefit as well as how long I could delay so that I could work around travel and other planned activities. Additionally, the staff at Premier Periodontics has been nothing short of professional, friendly, and helpful. More
Dr. Dkeidek was on time(!!), kind, knowledgeable, gentle, and knew how to anesthetize the nervous me for the extraction. I highly recommend him for implants and bone grafting as well. The team at Premier Periodontics is friendly and knowledgeable, which makes each visit a pleasant experience. More

I wanted to get some restorations done that involved extractions, bone grafts, and implants. I was referred to Premier Periodontics to get them done. Dr. Dkeidek came highly recommended and I quickly understood why. He is communicative, gentle, and thorough. After beginning my procedures, Dr. Dkeidek recommended making a small change which he discussed with me as well as communicated with my dentist which insured the success of my procedure. Everyone in the Redmond office is friendly and attentive. Their Covid prevention practices made me feel safe in every aspect of my treatment. Being in the dental field, I have some insight and understanding of great work and I definitely found it here. I'm very pleased with my experience at Redmond Premier Periodonics and highly recommend them if you're looking to get dental implants done. More
My dentist suspected a cracked root on my retainer tooth for my bridge. Sure enough it was cracked and I was referred to Dr. Dkeidek at Premier Periodontics for an extraction and bone grafting. The front desk staff was very kind and made me feel very comfortable when scheduling an appointment. Dr. Dkeidek’s assistant Jessica was very thorough when explaining the procedure and my post-op care. Dr. Dkeidek is excellent at giving anesthetic and it was a painless procedure. I will highly Premier Periodontics to all. More
Mary Jo is amazing! My teeth need major cleaning because I do not floss or take care of them. She does everything including laser and it never hurts. Mary Jo is very knowledgeable with a depth of experience. I had moved to different states due to job and have had several dental professionals and Mary Jo is the best. Dr. Dkeidek(D.D.S., MSD) is well recognized for his expertise in periodontics and implantology. Dr. Dkeidek rebuilt the area around my implant(done in CA) perfectly. His surgical skill exceeds all others... Lucky to have this high level of dental care in Bellevue. More

Just had my second surgery performed by Dr. Eirleen Hyun at Premier Periodontics in Everett. I received the same great care as I did in October. Dr. Hyun and her staff are so friendly & welcoming...they really ease my nerves. Great instructions for post-OP too. Thanks again to Dr. Hyun & Candice for today. Also thanks to Lourissa that assisted in October. More

Not only have Dr. Dkeidek and Mary Jo turned the health of my mouth from “on life support” to “good closing in on great”, but they have done so in an encouraging, educational, self-motivating way. I actually look forward to my appointments! I would not hesitate to recommend them. More
Issa Dkeidek, DDS, MSD did a “crown lengthening” procedure around lower-left-back crown. My dentist referred me to them and set up the appointment, because my permanent crown is so shallow that the permanent cement doesn’t hold the crown in place for more than a few months. He & assistant Sadie spent a generous amount of time answering my questions, and explaining the procedure and the after care. Some of my questions related to medical issues, and my TMD which causes my jaw to lock open during some dental procedures, unless I’m given frequent opportunities to close my jaw. He removed some surface gum, then cut it away to access & remove 1-3mm height off the jaw bone. Stitched gum back in place. In six weeks or so once the gum is firm enough to resist pressure, my dentist will take a mold for a new crown that will be deeper inside, and then hopefully I will never have issues with that one permanent crown popping off frequently, especially when it’s a new replacement. Gums were not deep enough to do the simpler gingivectomy. Gentle, fast, calm, friendly and good listeners! More
I was terrified about getting an implant and in fact all major work at the dentist scares me. I had a fantastic experience today. Virtually no pain or discomfort and every detail was designed to keep me comfortable while the work was done. I am home, comfortable and grateful to the Doctor and all staff but especially to his assistant during my visit. Thank you all so much, Dr Dkeidek! More
I am very grateful to Dr. Dkeidek and Karen Parker for the wonderful experience I had at Premier Periodontics in Redmond. They were very knowledgeable, compassionate and sensitive to my needs. The office is gorgeous and environment seems to be friendly from first greetings to the final steps. I highly recommend this practice to everyone and definitely will be coming back for ongoing periodontal care. More

I accidentally bit down on a popcorn kernel with my back tooth that sent a lightning bolt shooting through my body. After my dentist evaluated my tooth and told me it needed to come out, he sent me to Dr. Dkeidek. I have never had a better experience in a dental office. I now have a implant replacing my cracked tooth and I can’t even tell which tooth it is. I wish Dr. Dkeidek could do all my dental work! More
I had a very good experience with Dr. Dkeidek who removed a tooth and installed an implant on the same day. It was my 1st tooth pulled as an adult and I was nervous. They gave me a pill and of course numbed the area and I DID NOT FEEL A THING! I was amazed and thrilled! More

The office staff was friendly and professional. They worked with my insurance and their pricing was more than fair even without insurance. But more importantly Dr. Dkeidek did a fabulous job fixing my receding gum on a front canine tooth. It looks beautiful, just like i did prior to receding. I highly recommend this practice and Dr Dkeidek. More
Dr. Toloue and team were fantastic, I came to Premier for a 2nd opinion after a disagreement with a periodontist in Issaquah related to external cervical root resorption. As soon as Dr. Toloue looked over images and finished her exam, I felt at ease as her proposed treatment plan was in line with what I consider best practice, she took the time to listen and was ready with the best interventions when it came time for the procedure. It was not until the end of the procedure that I disclosed that I am a healthcare provider. I trust Dr. Toloue to provide a conservative/minimally invasive treatment plan when possible and the most up to date interventions. I'm grateful to have found Premier, thank you. More
As a health care professional and consultant I have high expectations concerning those who provide care to me and my family. The front office staff at Premier Periodontics were most helpful in both scheduling and then rescheduling my appointment when the need arose. They greeted me warmly and assisted efficiently with the insurance submission process. Dr. Dkeidek and his support team were knowledgeable and caring. Both took time to completely describe what they were doing, the implications, and potential next steps. Dr. Dkeidek took time to be sure I understood his thought process and assessment of my oral health. I will not hesitate to refer him and his staff to others. More
I’ve come here now for two gum graft procedures and have had an excellent experience both times. Dr. Dkeidek does a wonderful job, and him and his staff are friendly and welcoming. I’ve been pleased with the results of both procedures and the care taken post-op. Would highly recommend. More

A periodontal treatment became inevitable and a rather unpleasant infection necessitated that 2 teeth had to be pulled. I really didn't look forward to this but Dr. Dkeidek explained the options very well and step 1 - the pulling of the teeth - was much better than expected and did bring indeed the relief I was hoping for. I can still think of many places where I'd rather spend my time but I'm more relaxed and confident for the next steps. More
Premier is amazing! I came in as the last patient of the day, the Friday before Christmas weekend and couldn't have felt more cared for as a patient. They took their time and made me feel valued. Dr. Dkeidek was professional and so kind as was his entire staff! Thank you again! More
This is a long review, but I hope the detail I’ve included may help others who need periodontal work. It’s neither cheap nor fun, but when you need it, you are so much better off with a skilled and reputable practitioner. I give the highest recommendation Dr. Issa Dkeidek and his team – and please read on to discover why. Although I live in Upstate New York, I spend a lot of time in Washington State. My gums were bothering me (and my general dentist told me I would need gum surgery), so I found Premier Periodontics and made an appointment to see Dr. Dkeidek. First of all, he and his hygienist performed the most complete dental exam and cleaning I have ever had! I now feel bad seeing my dentist in New York, knowing that he and his staff could be doing so much more. However, as I expected, my gums needed work: a gum graft. I scheduled the procedure, and went in—accompanied by my considerable fear of dental work. But…what a pleasant surprise! The whole thing was as pain-free as I could ever hope for. For me, the injections of anesthetic into the gum tissue has always been the worst part of dental work, but somehow Dr. Dkeidek got around 20 small shots into the gums and I barely felt it. I think the combination of the topical anesthetic that was swabbed on first, plus his efficiency and skill, made this part of it so easy. And, since I was numb in all the right places, the actual taking of the graft from the roof of the mouth and stitching it to the gums was anticlimactic—the hardest part was just holding my mouth open. The whole thing was gentle yet efficient, and both he and his staff exhibited such friendly teamwork that I felt safe and relaxed to be in their capable hands. He prescribed pain medication to take, and, though I filled the prescriptions, I only needed a couple of ibuprofen on the second day. I made sure to follow the detailed guidelines they gave me (rinsing with salt water, no brushing around the site, etc), and never had any recovery problems. I have enjoyed pain-free, healthy gums since then. And, when I visited my NY dentist for my regular checkup, he invited the other doctors in his practice to come look at the grafts, because he felt they were so beautifully done. I guess you have to be another dentist to appreciate that kind of beauty! I hope I have no more serious dental problems, but if I do, I’ll wait until I am again in the Seattle area, and can see Dr. Dkeidek of Premier Periodontics. More

Where have these two ladies been my entire life? Maryjo and Anja at Premier Periodontics, are the absolute best dental hygienist I have ever had! I had a dentist for 35 years who died in a ski accident and I was pushed out of my comfortable dental nest, so to speak, so I had the opportunity to find a new provider. My teeth were basically well cared for and I had no periodontal needs but I wanted to be proactive and research what was available. What about gum disease? What about implants that all my friends of a certain age are talking about? So, I made an appointment at the Bellevue office of Premier Periodontics which was comfortable, friendly and welcoming but not ostentatious. I had my teeth cleaned like they have never been cleaned before, and my gums mapped for recession. The advancements in dental care were fascinating and Dr. Dkeidek throughly examined my teeth and presented a plan of how I could better care for them. He also answered my many questions thoroughly and patiently. I was to have my teeth cleaned every 4 months to prevent further plaque build-up or recession of my gums. That was it! There was no hard sell to do any advanced procedures nor pressure to sign up for a package deal. I left the office smiling with a sense of receiving the best professional dental care available. More
