A Credential No One Else in Delaware Holds

The Only Dentist in Delaware With This Combination

Dr. Sattar A. Syed, DMD, MAGD, DABOI, DICOI is the only dentist in Delaware to hold an Academy of General Dentistry Mastership (MAGD) and Diplomate-level board certifications in implantology from both the American Board of Oral Implantology (DABOI) and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (DICOI).

What that means for you: master-level general dentistry and board-certified implant expertise in one chair — so whether you need a routine cleaning, a full smile makeover, or permanent tooth replacement, you never have to start over with a stranger.

The Dentist You'll Actually Look Forward To Seeing

Dr. Sattar A. Syed, DMD, MAGD, DABOI, DICOI

For more than 20 years, Dr. Syed has cared for Wilmington families from the same Kirkwood Highway office — many of his first patients now bring their children and grandchildren. He is a master-level dentist who holds two Diplomate board certifications in dental implantology and a product tester for Gordon Christensen.

New patients tell us the same thing again and again: he listens first, explains everything, and never pushes treatment you don't need.
