Dental Implants

Being a board certified specialist means that in addition to the usual requirements for completing a specialty program, Dr. Sachs has made significant achievements beyond the mandatory requirements of the specialty. This includes successfully completing a comprehensive oral and written examination covering all phases of periodontal disease and its treatment, including placing dental implants. The requirements for board certification also includes detailed reports of a broad range of actual treatment personally proved by Dr. Sachs, and a rigorous examination by a panel of internationally respected peers. This is one of the highest recognitions of achievement by the specialty.

Dr. Sachs lives locally with his wife and two daughters. They enjoy travelling as a family and experiencing new adventures! Dr. Sachs is an enthusiastic skier and outdoor photographer, and activities that bring him closer to nature - which include hiking and back-packing.
