Dr. Jason Chawla is a Louisiana native raised on the Northshore. He is a graduate of Northshore High School and attended Tulane University in New Orleans where he completed his Bachelor of Science in Public Health and Tropical Medicine. Dr. Chawla also attended Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge for graduate coursework in finance and biochemistry. Following LSU, Dr. Chawla attended Lake Erie College of Medicine - School of Dental Medicine in Sarasota, FL, where he completed his Doctorate of Dental Medicine.
After graduation, Dr. Chawla wanted to return to Louisiana to make an impact in his local community. In a time where corporate dentistry is replacing the traditional dentist-owned and operated practices, he believes in bringing back the relationship-driven care that Louisiana patients want, and deserve. He takes his time with every patient and works with them to find the best solutions for their individual dental needs.
When Dr. Chawla isn't practicing dentistry he enjoys spending time with his soon-to-be wife, Alison, and their two rescued dogs, Cooper and Layla. Most weekends you'll find him either outdoors fishing, traveling, or at a Saints/LSU football game. Who dat?!

As all Southerners know, if you don't get your roux right, your gumbo will suffer. A roux is just fat and flour, but it's how you cook it that makes a difference. In the same way, dentistry is simply mastering techniques with the proper tools, but it's the little touches that make a difference. At Deep South Family Dentistry, we promise high-quality dentistry with a twist - true Southern values and hospitality.

I had an amazing experience at this dental office. I went in for a consult and a cleaning. I knew my teeth were in rough shape and worried how they would treat me once they saw my teeth. But they treated me with the upmost dignity and respect. They were kind and compassionate. They offered me tools to improve my oral hygiene and created a comprehensive treatment plan to get me back on track. I was very impressed with the care I received and look forward to getting my treatment plan carried out in the near future.

Best dentist, hygienist & staff I've seen in a long while! They are quick and always painless. Not sure why I'm always afraid to go, they haven't hurt me one bit and I'm the person that only goes for emergencies!

I always have a wonderful experience every time I visit Deep South. I never have to wait long to be seen and the whole staff is kind, professional, and knowledgeable. Dr. Deacon is a wonderful dentist and has the best bedside manor I've experienced with any doctor. I would recommend Deep South to anyone, but especially to those who have had negative experiences with dentists in the past.

Dr. Chawla is a great dentist! He is so laid back but so professional at the same time. During my last visit, I had my four-year-old son with me and Dr. Chawla made small talk with him and was very patient with him. I LOVE my dental hygienist, she is so professional but so personable at the same time! If I had a problem with anything else she would keep me coming back. She's so kind and I love our talks!
