Dmitry graduated from Russian State University with a Master’s degree in Metrology, Standardization and Quality Management. In 2010, he narrowed his focus to the field of Dentistry and studied for an additional 3 years as a dental technician at the Vladimir State Medical College.
Dmitry worked in Moscow producing metal-free restorations from zirconium dioxide for 3 years, then - with an extensive understanding of each stage of denture production - entered digital design. He developed a deeper knowledge of morphology and the basics of an aesthetic smile, as well as anatomy, gnathology, and the mechanical workings of the temporomandibular joint. During this time, he also advised colleagues from other laboratories in Moscow and Vladimir.
In 2018, Dmitry was invited to the United States to a large dental laboratory to improve the quality and speed of total work on implants with a focus in All on 4, All of 6, and other related productions. He introduced dynamic digital design software tools and implemented virtual simulations of jaw movement in the protocol, improving the quality of final restorations.
During this time, he upgraded a separate dental office in Los Angeles from analog to digital. This served to speed up production and allowing for a more streamlined patient experience. Patients were given a customized visual model of each stage of the treatment providing clarity and predictability of results, timeline, number of visits, and expected financial investment.
