About Dr. Thomas Mccawley, Dds

McCawley Center for Laser Periodontics and Implants is a family owned periodontal practice located at 800 East Broward Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale, just east of US-1 near Las Olas Boulevard and downtown. The practice has served Broward County residents for over fifty years, and Dr. Thomas McCawley has treated patients in the Fort Lauderdale community since 1972. For patients considering dental implants, the practice offers full dental implant placement and full arch dental implant replacement for those with extensive tooth loss, along with related procedures like bone grafting, sinus lift, and ridge augmentation to prepare the mouth for implants.

What sets this practice apart is its focus on laser assisted periodontal care alongside implant treatment. The team uses LANAP laser gum treatment for gum disease and LAPIP, an FDA cleared laser therapy specifically for treating infected or failing implants, which can help patients avoid implant removal in some cases. The office also offers advanced diagnostics such as microscopic and culture based testing to guide treatment. Patients who need both implant placement and ongoing gum health support may find the combined expertise here useful, and the office provides on site free parking along with elevator access for those with mobility needs.
