Atlas Dental Specialists

We Are Atlas Dental Specialists.

Providing the most complete dental care solutions for downtown Pittsburgh and Shadyside.

Meet our friendly, family practice owners, Drs. Nicholas and Mara Mangini. Atlas Dental Specialists has roots reaching back over 35 years starting with the practice of Dr. Kathryn Duncan Friedman in Downtown Pittsburgh. The practice was eventually taken over in 2014 by her daughter Dr. Mara Mangini, and her son-in-law, Dr. Nicholas Mangini. Together Drs. Nick and Mara have grown their Downtown Pittsburgh dental office and have expanded their operations to the Pittsburgh neighborhood of Shadyside. Atlas Dental is a family practice that provides a warm, friendly environment and a wide range of experience and expertise. Drs. Nick and Mara are trained as Prosthodontists, focusing their efforts on dental implants and implant prosthetics, full-mouth reconstruction and cosmetics, dentures, and Invisalign. We offer a variety of procedures and services including dental fillings, crowns, root canals, Botox therapy, and cosmetics. Whether a patient’s level of need is as simple as a dental cleaning, or as complex as full-mouth tooth replacement, Atlas Dental Specialists has the solutions you are looking for.
