Dr. Chiani first got her passion for dentistry through a close relative working in pediatric dentistry.
As she got more involved in her studies she chose to pursue a career as a prosthodontist and has since found incredible fulfillment in helping patients get their smiles back.
Dr. Chiani has been working in dentistry for 30 years. Her education includes an undergraduate degree in science and a total of 4 years of residency after graduating from dental school. Since then she has been practicing as a restorative dentist and is now working with the team at Nuvia’s Pittsburgh, PA center.
She has always loved helping patients with full mouth dental implants.
Although this procedure is incredibly life changing for patients, she recognized the struggles patients had waiting for what could be months while their final teeth were being created. Working at Nuvia and being able to provide permanent teeth in 24 hours completely transferred patient’s experiences with dental implants.
Dr Chiani’s patients can trust that they are in excellent hands. She is committed to ensuring that patients' wishes, concerns, and needs are heard and that they receive great care.
Dr. Zachary Weber, DMD, MD, is a dual-degree, board certified, highly accomplished oral and maxillofacial surgeon with both medical and dental degrees. He earned his dentistry degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine where he was inducted into the prestigious Omicron Kappa Upsilon dental honor society.
Dr. Weber then obtained his medical degree from Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia. He also completed his rigorous six-year residency at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital.
Dr. Weber spent nearly a decade as a faculty clinical educator of oral surgery residents and dental students at Columbia University Medical Center. Today, he continues to shape the future of oral and maxillofacial surgery with a special focus in All-on-X full arch dental implant surgery.
Dr. Weber takes pride in being part of a process that offers patients permanent teeth in just one day. He understands the frustrations that come with temporary solutions, such as the risk of breaking and the inconvenience it can cause.
With Nuvia’s approach, patients experience an immediate and life-changing transformation, leaving the office with a confident, fully restored smile.
What sets Nuvia apart, in Dr. Weber’s eyes, is the collaborative team of skilled surgeons, CRNAs, and restorative doctors who combine their experience and talents to provide exceptional results.
As an oral surgeon in Harrison, NY, Parsippany, NJ and Pittsburgh, PA, Dr. Weber wants those who are considering dental implants to know that at Nuvia every patient is in capable and caring hands. He approaches each case with the same diligence and respect he would expect for himself, never cutting corners and always prioritizing safety and quality care.
Outside of the office Dr. Weber loves spending time with his family, attending both of his kids’ sporting events and enjoying the outdoors. He and his wife love their two French Bulldogs.
