Dr. Frank Laga

Dr. Frank Laga was born and raised in Crystal River, FL. He attended the University of South Florida where he earned his Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Science with a minor in General Business. He then decided to pursue his passion for helping people and received his Doctorate of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from LECOM Dental School in Bradenton, FL. Dr. Laga was also selected for the Health Professions Scholarship with the US Army and proudly served four years as a dentist and officer.

Dr. Laga met his wife, Dr. Megan Laga, during dental school. They got married after graduation and headed to their first duty station at Fort Bragg, NC. Dr. Laga deployed with the 257 DCAS to Kuwait for nine months in 2019. Dr. Laga and his team provided high quality dental care for all military personnel on base. While deployed, he gained valuable experience in leadership and dentistry and is very grateful for the opportunity to serve.

After transitioning out of the military, Dr. Laga and his family decided it was time to return home to Florida to be closer to their family. He and his family found Lakeland to call home and absolutely fell in love with the community.

Dr. Laga is a member of the America Dental Association, Florida Dental Association, West Coast Dental Association and Polk County Association. He has continued his education with advanced courses in dentistry and is able to provide a wide variety of up-to-date and state-of-the-art dental procedures to meet the needs of his patients. Dr. Laga believes in compassionate and comprehensive dentistry and strictly follows the Golden Rule. Each and every patient can expect to be treated like family!

When Dr. Laga is not working he enjoys spending time with his wonderful family. He is the father of three, Andi Oliva, Remi Kate and Ford Lucas, and one fur baby named Ella.

Dr. Laga is excited to bring his passion for dentistry to North Lakeland. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Laga!

Great dentist, hygienist always takes their time. I’ve always recommended my friends and family that if you need a good dentist, that’s not part of a franchise. This is where to go.
