Abe Bhatnagar, DMD
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a dentist. I am aware that is a bit unusual. But I love this job – to me, it is the perfect blend of art, technology, and engineering. I am forever grateful to be able to do this work with an amazing team and in a city I love.
I was born in India, but my family moved shortly afterward to California in 1990. We lived in San Francisco during the early stages of the tech boom and then moved to Atlanta, Georgia after the 1996 Olympics. There, I completed my undergraduate and master’s degrees at Georgia Tech in Biochemistry and Polymer Chemistry. Biochemistry was still a relatively new field back then! I was part of the fourth graduating class at Georgia Tech with that degree. I briefly considered pursuing a career in drug design and development, but chose to continue pursuing my childhood passion for dentistry. I completed my dental school in Phoenix, Arizona at Midwestern University. After dental school, my family and I moved to OKC around ten years ago and it has been a fantastic ride watching this city grow.
At dental school and afterward, I was very fortunate to have incredible mentors to learn from. With their guidance, I have focused my career on the surgical aspects of general dentistry. I have been extracting impacted wisdom teeth and placing implants since before I graduated from dental school. In my initial years as a dentist, I worked in an emergency dental clinic where we routinely took care of difficult-to-numb “hot teeth” and abscesses. Over the last few years, I have owned and practiced at Redbud Dental in Edmond, where my focus has shifted to comprehensive care and IV sedation. I think my drive to provide the most comfortable experience possible is because I have TMD problems and am a difficult dental patient myself.
At OKCDI, our focus is purely on dentures and implants. We do not do anything else. We place implants and make dentures on-site. This allows us to start with the end in mind, avoid multiple visits at multiple offices, and engage with the lab technician throughout the treatment. What you will find here is a culture of education. We are happy and proud to show you where we plan to place implants on your CT scan, how we make dentures using the highest quality materials, and how to ensure the best possible outcome with your dental treatment. If there is anything that I can do for you, whether or not you are a patient of ours, please feel free to reach out.
