Ranii & Buzzatto Dental is a well-established and long-standing dental practice located at 12 Eastern Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15215. The practice has a rich history, serving the greater Aspinwall area for over 75 years. It was originally founded in 1950 by Dr. George A. Ranii. Over the decades, the practice has truly become a family affair. Dr. George A. Ranii's daughter, Dr. Susan Ranii Buzzatto, joined the practice in 1987 after graduating from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine. She worked alongside her father for 20 years, gaining extensive experience in various dental procedures including implant crowns, root canal therapy, bridges, bleaching, veneers, and crowns. In 1991, Dr. Brian P. Buzzatto, Dr. Susan's husband, also a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine (1986), joined the family practice. Together, Dr. Susan and Dr. Brian serve as the school dentists for the Fox Chapel Area School District, demonstrating their commitment to the community. Further solidifying the family aspect, Dr. William G. Ranii, Dr. George's son and Dr. Susan's brother, became a part of the team in 1995. Dr. William took a less traditional path to dentistry, working as a boilermaker for twenty years before returning to school to become a Lab Tech, where he learned to create dental prosthetics. His expertise in dentures, partials, and working with the senior population has led him to expand his work to Passavant Lutheran Homes, where he practices once a week.
