Hamburg dentist certified as implant expert

Hamburg - After passing a rigorous examination on implant dentistry recently in Chicago, Michael J. Tobin, DDS joined 316 dentists as a diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology/Implant Dentistry, thus becoming one of the nation’s leading experts in implant care. To sit for the examination, Dr. Tobin was required to practice implant dentistry for at least five years, to provide dental implant services to more than 10 patients, and to otherwise prove his implant expertise. To earn the title of diplomate, he presented cases for review by an expert panel of implant dentists and passed a series of written and oral examinations sponsored by the American/Board of Oral Implantology/ Implant Dentistry. The examination process measured the in-depth knowledge, proficient skills, and abilities required for practitioners to provide comprehensive, safe, and effective oral implant care for the public. The board, founded in 1969 and sponsored by the American Academy of Implant Dentistry, conducts examinations to determine the qualifications and competence of dentists who voluntarily apply for certification. Dr. Tobin’s office is located at 3339 Rte. 94 in Hamburg. For information or an appointment, call 973-827-5533.
