World renowned oral surgeon and educator Michael A. Pikos, DDS, has chosen the highly acclaimed Safety Harbor Resort and Spa as the new home for The Pikos Implant Institute. “We are very pleased to partner with the Safety Harbor Resort and Spa. This luxury resort and world-class spa located on the shores of Tampa Bay will provide our course attendees with all the amenities of a first-class hotel,” Dr Pikos said in his announcement.
In addition to the new Safety Harbor location, Pikos is also celebrating “20 Years of Surgical Education” by unveiling a new website and new logo. The logo features a series of soft lines representing the threads of a dental implant, symbolic of the industry.
Pikos and his partners have had office locations in Palm Harbor, Trinity and Spring Hill since 1983. He has personally trained more than 2,300 clinicians from all 50 states and 32 countries since 1990 at his Palm Harbor-based Institute.
In addition, he has performed thousands of surgical procedures including more than 13,000 dental implants.
He is an innovator and has introduced various techniques in advancing dental implantology throughout the years.
Pikos, a summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the Ohio State University, completed his oral maxillofacial surgery training in the Pittsburgh Health System, Montefiore Hospital.
In 1983, he opened his first office in Palm Harbor. With the new dental implant procedures shown to provide advances over the more commonly accepted bridges and false teeth, Pikos devoted his attention to implant reconstruction in order to give people with missing teeth better quality of life.
Research has shown people with missing teeth suffer from emotional, psychological and health damage while dental implants return the ability to chew and give people a reason to smile and show their teeth. When people lose teeth, they often decline into eating soft food. In addition, nutrition is often compromised.
“As an implant surgeon, there is no greater satisfaction for me than to witness the many functional, emotional and psychological changes that occur in our patients upon completion of all of their procedures. Implants allow our patients to eat their food more efficiently, thus improving both their quality of life and their self image,” Pikos said.
