About Dr Robert Thein
Dental implant treatment demands careful judgment, precise surgery, and long-term planning. Dr. Robert Thein provides implant-only care for patients seeking a stable, lasting solution for missing or failing teeth. Each consultation is focused on evaluating function, bone health, and long-term outcomes—not quick fixes.
Dr. Robert Thein, DDS, ABOI, ICOI is a board-certified dental implant surgeon whose practice is devoted exclusively to implant surgery and implant restoration. Unlike general dental practices, Dr. Thein limits his work entirely to implant care, allowing for greater precision, consistency, and predictable long-term results, particularly in complex cases.
Dr. Thein earned his DDS from Boston University and completed advanced surgical training at the Misch Implant Institute at the University of Pittsburgh. His background in full-mouth reconstruction and prosthodontics ensures that surgical decisions are guided by restorative function and long-term stability.
He is board certified by the American Board of Implant Dentistry (ABOI), a distinction held by a small percentage of implant clinicians nationwide and earned through advanced training, documented outcomes, and rigorous examination.

Making a Difference Beyond the Clinic
Dr Thein’s commitment to giving back reflects his belief that quality dental care should be accessible to everyone—regardless of location or circumstances.
"Dr. Thein is just outstanding. We chose him because he works well with people with phobias using sedation, and our son needs that. But since then, the whole family has been going there and wow. Dr. Thein is a perfectionist. I had a very difficult cavity that was between teeth up to the nerve. His filling was artistry. And no pain or sensitivity. I'm also in process for an implant and it has been exceptional. I can't recommend Dr. Thein highly enough.”

Advanced Dental Implant Surgery is a modern procedure that uses cutting-edge technology to replace missing teeth with artificial implants. It offers higher precision, faster healing, and long-lasting results compared to traditional implant surgery.
Advanced Dental Implant Surgery uses digital imaging, 3D planning, and minimally invasive techniques, while traditional implant surgery relies on manual methods. This results in better accuracy, less pain, and quicker recovery.
