To do so, he furthered his education in oral sedation, obtained an IV sedation license, and is currently a member of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology. One of the unique features of his practices is that patients can obtain all of their dental services in one office, from his team of top-notch specialists, while sleeping through the entire process.

Dr. Dean is a graduate of the Misch Implant Institute; one of the worlds most advanced training centers in dental implantology. His training at Misch enhanced Dr. Deans superior surgical skills and knowledge of periodontics necessary for complex implant treatments. His training and expertise in dental implants have allowed him to rehabilitate numerous cases of partial and/or total edentulism, the absence of teeth, giving patients the smiles they want and deserve. Dr. Dean has incorporated numerous cutting-edge technologies into his surgical practice, such as Plasma Rich Protein, which greatly accelerates the healing rate and recovery in his patients. His surgical skills have earned him a Fellowship at the esteemed International Congress of Oral Implantologist as well as the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.

His drive for perfection, passion for his work, and love for his patients keep Dr. Dean in tune with all current developments in the industry. He is affiliated with some of the most respected dental organizations including the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, The American College of Prosthodontists, and the American Academy of Craniofacial Pain, a group of multi-disciplinary professionals, committed to the relief of craniofacial pain and dysfunction of TMJ.

Dr. Dean and his wife actively support several philanthropic organizations including the Concern Foundation, which funds cancer research worldwide, the National MS Society, and Our House.
