Dealing with a sudden, unexpected dental issue--a tricky tooth with a congenital defect--proved quite a challenge. Before finding this practice, several other clinicians insisted I spend up to $10,000 on an implant without respecting my autonomy to explore alternatives. I'm not one of Dr. Ramirez's regular periodontal patients, but when I called after having difficulties with previous dentists, Audrey's reassuring manner made a huge difference, effortlessly streamlining the process of getting my X-rays and diagnostics transferred and completely putting me at ease right from the very start. Communication throughout has been stellar. Instead of pushing an extraction, Dr. Ramirez creatively partnered with Dr. Julie Beasley upstairs to design an intelligent, nuanced plan that actually saved my natural tooth. I cannot overstate Dr. Ramirez's clinical skill or his team's professionalism--honestly, he barely charged me enough for the follow-up because he's such a genuinely nice guy. If you need complex dental care, you're in expert hands here. read more

I needed an extraction which was infected and located under my bridge. I called and talked with Sara who was most friendly and she scheduled me for a consultation with Dr. Emil Marx. The Office of Dr. Ramirez was by far and away the most friendly and helpful Dental Office I had ever visited. Sara and Audrey were very helpful getting my medical clearance.....Sam was the most supportive and calming tech I had ever met and Dr. Marx was an "artist" who was most kind and compassionate to include a phone call after surgery to see how I was doing. I was blown away to receive a lovely "Healing Card" signed by everyone a couple days following surgery - - - the entire Staff was beyond professional - - and quite honestly - full of caring!! Thank ya'all for the kindness - - you are the "Poster Folks For Great Dentistry!!" Sue B. read more

Professional, good advice, friendly staff, and calls the next day to ensure the patient is having no ill effects from the treatment. Dr. Ramirez respects the patient's choices and does not exert pressure for unnecessary treatment. I recommend him highly. read more

Dr Ramirez has a very calm and pleasant way about him. He and his staff made me feel very comfortable for an otherwise uncomfortable extraction of a fractured root canal. He was very thorough going over my past history. The office had some nice relaxing music going. He stayed with me during the local anesthetic injection, making sure I was properly numb prior to the procedure. (Most other practitioners just disappear for a while). Despite the somewhat complicated fracture, the procedure went well. Additionaly, I had also been told by my old dentist that I needed an implant in place of the old root canal. Dr Ramriez opined that it was not necessary based on the tooth location, bite pattern, etc. What else can I say? Nice, knowledgeable, great 'chair-side' manner as well as surgical skills and a pleasant and professional staff! read more

I have been going here for a few years now, and I have had some pretty major dental work done. With that I can safely say that Dr. Bob is probably the most awesome dental surgeon ever. If I had to choose one person to stick needles in my mouth and drill holes in my face repeatedly, it's definitely going to be Dr. Bob. He is a true master with the needle and the drill, no doubt. His staff is super awesome as well. Just a bunch of friendly outgoing people that help put your worries at ease. I trust all of them with sticking very sharp medical instruments into my face hole. I think that says a lot right there. I can't really recommend Dr. Bob's office enough. If you need some serious dental work done, you should be getting it here. read more

Robert Ramirez, DDS, MS - Periodontists Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

A botch job in Mexico removing my wisdom teeth left me with a dislocated jaw, bone fragments and a serious abscess. I was in severe pain but had no idea what was going on inside my mouth until I saw the xray. It was horrific. A thorough examination showed extensive damage. Dr. Bob went over and beyond to help bring me back to health. HIs staff is great! Sam made me feel so comfortable as he could tell I was extremely stressed. Overall a pleasant experience and who can ever say that about being in a dentist chair. read more

Ramirez butchered the upper right quadrant of my mouth, leaving bicuspid and molar roots exposed. My general dentist was horrified when he saw the outcome of my surgery. He said he never would have recommended stripping away so much gingiva. I couldn't tolerate even room temperature water for over a year. read more

As good as it gets when it comes to this business. Grab Ramirez if you can. I came to Dr Ramirez when a tooth implant from a previous Dr was no longer viable. Going to Dr Ramirez's office was a pleasure. He's professional, clear, and concerned. I trust his work. He fixed my tooth implant and gave me suggestions on how to keep costs low. Working with everyone in his office was awesome - Jennifer, Sarah, Joe. All of them. Aces. Seriously I wish I could work with them more in the future! If I have any tooth challenges, it's a no-brainer...this is the best office. Logistics: -really liked getting email reminders for appointments -was able to email with jennifer when needed -the actual procedure was fun - he and Joe listened to music -the office is on jolleyville, it's nicely decorated, and there was always parking read more

Dr. Ramirez and staff are friendly and helpful. I left because I felt excessive pressure to set up my next appointment--according to their schedule rather than my own needs. Twice in one year my regular periodontal hygienist could not make it to work and a non-periodontal hygienist cleaned my teeth but did not do the usual checking of my gums and nothing was said about my gums. I've used periodontists in several cities, and this one is near the bottom. read more

I have not had many (any) good experiences with dentists prior to meeting with Robert Ramirez a few weeks ago. Very personable and reassuring. Prior to that consultation, I was convinced I'd have to pull all my teeth and get dentures. My last trip to a dentist 5 years ago was a disaster and ultimately resulted in my having to got to the hospital for a dislocated jaw. After a thorough examination and X-rays, he proposed a three part treatment plan which was minimally invasive and did not involve any extractions and implants, with a treatment cost that wasn't exorbitant. Dr. Ramirez's practice is small, just him and his supporting staff, the office is cozy and warm. Yesterday I had my first of three procedures to deal with my recessed gums. Mara did a great job scaling and planing my right side. Dr. Ramirez came in and shot my mouth up with novocain, but I barely felt a pinch with the shots. His presence for that brief time was very reassuring. They did everything possible to make me comfortable during the procedure and today, I am not in the least bit sore. In about a month I'll be getting a gum graft for my bottom front teeth. I'm still a little nervous about that procedure as it is a minor surgery but if yesterday's work is any indication, I hope to be able to enjoy all of next month's thanksgiving meal with the rest of my family, pain-free! read more

Dr. R is super-professional, friendly, and efficient. I like being able to make 7am appointments so I don't have to miss work for a checkup. He's very forthright with you when explaining issues with your gums and teeth and gives you your options in plain English. His staff is very warm, welcoming and helpful. Hopefully you'll never have to have gum surgery, but if you do, he's the guy to go to! read more

Very friendly and professional folks here! My first periodontist did a throughout root and scaling procedure and then wanted to do a much more invasive cleaning costing twice as much as my first car. I decided to change periodontist and landed in Dr. Bob's office. He gave a very comprehensive exam and recommended we hold off on the more invasive / expensive procedure. He then recommended me to a super dentist to have my regular cleaning. I can confidently say that Dr. Ramirez will be my periodontist for life! read more

Bottom line: Dr. Robert Ramirez is a rockstar of Periodontics!! For years I had put off getting much needed dental work done because of some - quite frankly - horrible past experiences (stay away from a particular dental chain, people!). When the time came for some dental surgery to install a TAD, I was referred to Dr. Bob by the person who became my regular dentist last year (a guy who is himself an amazing doctor!). What a world of difference it has been to be in Dr. Ramirez's care! I've never had such a smooth experience during, or after, a dental surgery procedure. He and his staff have a wonderful blend of warm friendliness and professionalism. I always feel that my dignity as a patient is respected and my concerns addressed. Dr. Ramirez and his staff provide outstanding service!! read more

Addendum - I have now had two gum surgeries with Dr. Ramirez. After two of these experiences, I can say without a doubt that his staff is excellent, his work has proven to be excellent, they see you when you are scheduled to be seen, and they make the experience the absolute best it can be. He personally called me to ensure I was ok... they office sends a get well card signed by everyone... he took a ton of pix so my insurance company couldn't weasel out of paying me this time like they did the first time. These are the things that separate the outstanding office that they operate, from the good offices that I'm sure are out there somewhere. read more

I have dental trauma & anxiety so I am very selective in who I see for my dental/perio care which is advanced. Dr. Ramirez & have his staff are amazing!! During my exams, x-rays, and recent extractions (5 teeth) they were very sensitive to my issues, and were compassionate & caring throughout the entire process (before, during, after). I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I trust Ramirez for my care and highly recommend his office to anyone! read more

If you're looking for the best dental surgeon and team, you have to go see Dr. Bob. He cares about his patients and takes pride in his work. Throughout my dental implant process, Dr. Bob and his assistant, Sam were very kind and professional. They explained every single step to me and they took the time to get to know me. Plus, they let me pick the music during the procedure. The office is easy to get to, always has parking, and is really clean. I had changed my job, my career and moved to a new home... all this, Sarah at the front desk would always accommodate my crazy schedule. You walk in and the entire office has a cool harmony and it seems like everyone really like their job...a good sign to me. Dr. Bob accepts insurance, gives an estimate before starting the procedures, and overall fair price for a quality dental implant. I had gone to two different dentists to get the crown for implant, which Dr. Bob checked 2 times because it did not fit correctly and my gums were swelling for days.... Dr. Bob saw me twice and worked with that dentist to get a new crown for me. Very happy and would recommend this office to anyone. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Ramirez and his office. His staff is amazing and he is fantastic. I recently brought my kiddo in for some work and they were so comforting with her and really helped her through her fears. Throughout the procedure, they kept things light an fun, singing, talking to her and generally making her feel at ease. From our initial consult, I could tell that Dr. Ramirez knew his stuff. I felt completely comfortable with my little one in his care. He even called that evening to make sure that she was feeling alright. Class act. read more

Excellent team and experience. Everyone was a huge help and they really made me feel listened to and included in the process. I had a tooth implant. It was actually a pleasure to go there. You could tell they enjoyed working with each other, and they made me feel extremely welcome every time I called or had an appointment. It is such a pleasure to know that I could ask any question at any time and get really great responses. I strongly recommend this practice. read more

I've never been somewhere I laughed and enjoyed myself so much!! Great ,fast and easy! Awesome that's all thank u!

Okay, so I've known Dr. Ramirez for a few years, but I never wrote a review before. What can I say? Professional doctor and professional staff to say the least. He always gave me the impression that he really cared for me as a patient and as a human being. I had an implant done with him which can be very scary!! (plus I didn't want to be put to sleep during the procedure) and Dr. Ramirez was phenomenal- making jokes with the intention to make me feel at ease and it worked. Dr. Ramirez is also a very gentle person and has a friendly personality. Sam was also great! Anyways, just wanted to say kuddos to them for making such a great team. read more

Dr. Robert Ramirez is very professional, super nice and one of the kindest Dr. I have ever met in my life. All the staff in Dr. Ramirez's office are awesome. His office is super clean, quiet. I can't find words to express my appreciation to Dr. Ramirez and his wonderful staff. Ms. Mara cleans my teeth and she does not just clean, but also checks gums, tongue etc. She does full exam to make sure everything is alright with my mouth. Also, several times I had to reschedule my appointments and Ms. Jennifer is so kind to reschedule at a time that is convenient with my schedule. Awesome, wonderful place! read more

Dr. Ramirez and his staff are the best! The staff is friendly and skilled, and Dr. Ramirez's work is exemplary. (Really, others dentists comment on the quality of Dr. Ramirez's work.) It's obvious he takes pride in his work, stays current in his field, and, most of all, operates with integrity--consistently keeping the patient's best interest in mind. I've been a patient for many years because I value the quality work/service and trust the advice I get each time I visit. The former is worth the fair amount I pay, but the latter is priceless. read more

I have been going to Dr Ramirez about 8 yrs. Initially I was referred to him because I needed gum graphs. I have had that done - but it was not necessary to do all that was planned because of the way he helped and encouraged me to care for my teeth and gums. I have my teeth cleaned at least every 4 months. I was told as a child that I would probably lose all of my teeth. At 60 - I have healthy teeth and gums - am very proud of that. I also have loved the family atmosphere of Dr Bob's office and staff. I've always had a great fear of dentists. I have such comfort and trust under his care - that fear is not a factor. I would recommend Dr Ramirez to anyone needing a dentist/periodontist - and interested in a GREAT one. read more

Should have written this review long time ago. My general dentist recommended Dr. Robert Ramirez - super sweet, professional, talented oral surgeon because I needed to have my implant done. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for such a scary procedure. Dr.Ramirez explained everything very carefully to me. He made me feel comfortable and confident that the surgery would be fine - and it was. He even called me the night of my surgery to see how I was doing! Very impressive. Pleasant from the initial consultation to the follow up. I have never been happier at a dentist. Not a single complication afterwards. His staff is just as phenomenal, they took the fear out of dental work. Best dental experience ever.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! read more

Dr. Ramirez really knows his work. He's very gentle and he explains what he's doing before he does it so there are no surprises. His staff is easy to work with and is well organized. They gave me several payment options and I never felt pressured during the consultation. Dental work is expensive but in this case you really get what you pay for. The office is clean but not plastic feeling. I felt comfortable during the procedure (which I barely remember) and I'm happy with the results. read more
