Meet our team
Perry Stamatiades, DDS, FAGD
Fellow, Academy of General Dentistry
Fellow, International Congress of Oral Implantologists
After earning his DDS from UNC-Chapel Hill in 2002, he completed a one year residency at Palmetto Richland Memorial Hospital in Columbia, SC. He then started his dental practice in partnership with Dr. Bill Cave and became the sole proprietor after Dr. Cave retired.
Prior to earning his DDS, he graduated from UNC Charlotte in 1996 with a BS, majoring in biology; he simultaneously earned a BA in Chemistry during that time. He also completed a mini residency in dental implants from Misch Institute, which is affiliated with Temple University.
His FAGD (Fellow, Academy of General Dentistry) title demonstrates an extremely high level of competency. Only 5% of dentists in the US and Canada achieve this designation, which requires rigorous, in depth continuing education for better patient care.
He is newly married to Fay who is also in the healthcare field. When he’s not helping patients, you can find him spending quality time with Fay, cooking together and taking cooking classes, hiking, reading, and hanging out with extended family.
