Hay David C DMD, MPH

A periodontist operates in Pittsburgh’s East End. Hay David C DMD, MPH specializes in gum health, dental implants, and the kind of precise treatments that keep supporting structures intact. The practice handles everything from gingival grafts to bone regeneration, addressing both function and long-term oral stability. Periodontics isn’t the most glamorous branch of dentistry, but it’s the one that quietly prevents bigger problems down the line.

The office sits at 563 Epsilon Dr #300, a stretch of Pittsburgh where medical offices share space with low-key professional buildings. This isn’t a neighborhood that draws crowds for its charm, but it’s where people go when they need periodontal maintenance or a second opinion on receding gums. Parking is a practical concern here—street spots fill fast, so plan accordingly.

Most visits start with an assessment: probing depths, X-rays, and a discussion about whether scaling and root planing will suffice or if surgical options like crown lengthening are worth considering. Referrals often come from general dentists, but self-referrals aren’t uncommon, especially when patients notice persistent bleeding or loosening teeth. The focus remains on gum disease management, implant placement, and the less visible (but critical) work of preserving jawbone density.

Questions about treatment plans or insurance coordination are best directed to the front desk. Reach them at (412) 963-1911 for specifics. First-time visitors can scope out the location via directions here—the suite number matters in this building, so double-check before heading up.
