"Who should I see about getting dental implants?"
 

When getting dental implants, you should select a dentist or dental team with in-depth knowledge and prior experience with all aspects of the treatment. At Tidewater Dental we have this expertise. Dr. O'Roark is the only Diplomat of the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry in the Southern Maryland area and one of the first 35 in the country to receive such recognition. Implantology is not recognized by the American Dental Association as a dental specialty, but the ABOI/ID follows the American Dental Association's requirements for National Certifying Boards for Dental Specialists. The ABOI/ID website (www.aboi.org) says, "The ABOI/ID Diplomat designations symbolizes the highest level of competence in implant dentistry and certification by the ABOI/ID attests to the fact that a dentist has demonstrated knowledge, ability, and proficiency in implant dentistry through a rigorous examination process."

The majority of Dr. O'Roark's work is implant dentistry and its associated prosthetics. He has over 30 years of experience in the field and has placed more than 5000 implants. A study of his implant patients is showing a success rate of approximately 92% over this entire period, including those designs that are no longer used. The implants currently being used have shown a success rate of
98%. This experience translates into confidence in the procedures necessary to transform your particular dental needs into functional, aesthetic, and comfortable prosthetic reconstructions. His constant contact with implantologists throughout the world assures you of the latest technology.

Dr. O'Roark is proficient in all of the implant types and prosthetics and can provide you with the proper implant procedures as dictated by your particular jaw conditions and your desires. Function is the fundamental reason for implants but this is followed closely by the aesthetic desires.
