Five dentists, full breadth of care

Suncoast Dental is led by Dr. Byron Larsen, DDS and Dr. Zeyad Hammad, DDS as equal partners. They're joined by associate dentists Dr. Will Xie, DDS and Dr. Ahmed Hammad, DDS — and our newest addition, Dr. Abdul-Rafi Ahmed, DDS, joining the team in August 2026. Together, our team covers general dentistry, advanced implants (including remote-anchorage cases that most practices refer out), sedation including on-site general anesthesia, and emergency care. Meet Dr. Larsen, Dr. Hammad, Dr. Xie, and Dr. Ahmed Hammad individually for full bios and credentials.

Visiting pediatric specialist

Dr. Sean Beattie — children's dentistry, monthly visits

Dr. Sean Beattie is a board-certified pediatric dentist who visits Suncoast once a month. He handles children's cases that benefit from a pediatric specialist — anxious kids, special-needs patients, and complex pediatric work. We welcome pediatric referrals from general dentists in surrounding offices for his visiting days.

For routine children's care, our regular team is family-friendly and treats kids every week. Dr. Beattie's visits are reserved for cases where his specialist expertise makes a difference. When you book, mention your child's situation and we'll suggest whether a Beattie visit makes sense.

Three themes come up over and over in Suncoast Dental's reviews: same-day emergency appointments, IV sedation and general anesthesia that finally made years-of-avoided procedures manageable, and how warm the team is with families — especially Dr. Sean Beattie with children and Drs. Larsen, Hammad, and Will Xie with complex implant cases.

Excellent bedside manner for folks who deal with mental health disorders and who are uncomfortable during an operation. They offer several different types of sedative options for me, and every dentist I have met here is very good at what they do.

IV Sedation & Cosmetic Work

They were absolutely amazing. Fit me in as soon as possible and helped me with a treatment plan for the future. I even had a question late at night and emailed them and was shocked to see them reply within 20 minutes.

We are new patients at Suncoast and our experience was amazing! Very happy we switched to Suncoast! Also very kid friendly unlike our last dentist.
