Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Dr. Scott Kim was born and raised in Maryland, and started his career at New York University, College of Dentistry where he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree. Following this, he completed a one-year internship at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center, then went on to be accepted into the very competitive field of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and completed his residency training in OMFS at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia. There he was trained extensively in adult and pediatric general anesthesia, general surgery, sleep medicine, Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery, and maxillofacial trauma. He then went on to become chief resident at Level I trauma centers, Temple University Hospital and Cooper University Hospital, during his final year of training. Dr. Scott has honed his proficiency in a wide range of oral and maxillofacial procedures. He is particularly adept in performing surgeries such as wisdom teeth extractions, reconstructive and corrective jaw surgeries, dental implant placement, bone grafting and sinus augmentation, facial trauma and reconstruction, obstructive sleep apnea, disorders of the temporomandibular joint, and alveolar clefts. His attention to detail and commitment to patient comfort has established him as a sought-after practitioner among both patients and colleagues. While Dr. Scott practices the full scope of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, his focus remains primarily on the ambulatory setting, with an emphasis on dentoalveolar surgery, dental implants, bone grafting and reconstruction, and benign oral pathology.
