George R. Perri is a faculty member in the Section of Advanced Prosthodontics at the UCLA School of Dentistry. He is a graduate of the UCLA dental school and became part of the faculty after his graduation in 1981. He also currently practices general dentistry with a focus on implants, restorative and esthetic dentistry in his busy private practice in Whittier, California . Dr. Perri was involved in the original development of the UCLA abutment, especially in its use for esthetic restorations. His current clinical work is centered on developing systems to maximize efficiency, accuracy and success in the implant field. A major focus is developing a predictable understanding of the requirements for esthetic reconstruction and demonstrating effective methods for controlling forces generated by an over-denture on the underlying bar and implants. Dr. Perri has lectured nationally and internationally on all aspects of restoring dental implants and practice management since 1988. He has authored and coauthored articles on implants and their effective use.
