“It is a priviledge to provide our community with gentle care and compassion.”

Both are certified in dental anesthesiology, advanced cardiac life support, and board certified in oral & maxillofacial surgery. They were also selected by Washingtonian Magazine and Northern Virginia Magazine as among the best oral and maxillofacial surgeons in Virginia, DC and Maryland.

“Dr. Kuzmik was amazing! I had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled and I was able to go to the grocery store immediately after the procedure. I hardly had any pain and was back at work the next day. I was shocked that I felt so good. Thank you for your meticulous work and trust. I would recommend him to anyone.”

But more than that, they are both passionate professionals who care about their patients. They both have long participated in supporting local organizations and charities.

“I could not ask for a better experience from any dental office. The staff was extremely efficient, helpful, kind, and considerate. Dr. Delgado made this implant experience extremely comfortable. More importantly I completely trust him with my care. He’s an incredible surgeon and I cannot thank him enough.”

Dr. Delgado lives in Vienna with his wife, Patricia, and their three children. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Georgetown University in Washington D.C. and then went on to Georgetown’s School of Dentistry, where he earned his Doctorate of Dental Surgery degree. Dr. Delgado completed his internship and residency in oral and maxillofacial surgery at Nassau County (NY) Medical Center, where he was involved with one of the first teaching centers in the United States for the placement and restoration of the dental implants that are now presently used throughout the world.

“Everyone was great and I love Dr. Delgado and his assistant who took extra steps and care when walking me back to recovery because I am a fall risk. The rest of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful as well. The overall office understands the “pursuit of excellence!”

Dr. Kuzmik lives in McLean with his three children. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Pharmacy and a Doctorate in Dental Surgery degree from the Ohio State University in Columbus, OH. Then followed a one-year residency at Prince George’s Medical & Trauma Center in Cheverly, MD, and specialty training in oral & maxillofacial surgery and anesthesia at the St. Francis Medial Center in Pittsburgh and at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, a research center for advanced bone grafting and dental implants.

“I was referred to Dr. Kuzmik for an urgent tooth extraction and I’m so pleased that I was. I can say that it was one the best experiences I’ve had for what I anticipated to be a major ordeal. He talked over the options and provided me with necessary information, and executed the procedure efficiently and quickly.”

Advanced Technologies

In order to provide the best experience for their patients, Drs. Delgado and Kuzmik have recently begun utilizing 3-D computer guided surgery, teeth-in-a-day and All-On-4 implant surgery. These are routine procedures in their office.

CT Scans: The Tysons Corner office is equipped with the i-CAT Cone Beam 3-D Dental Imaging System which provides high-definition, in-office, three-dimensional digital imaging at a lower cost and radiation to the patient compared to a traditional CT scan.

This system delivers the most complete radiographic information possible. The i-CAT’s images provide 3-D views of critical anatomy for a more precise analysis of bone dimensions and density. The need for bone grafting, selection of implant size and ideal placement can be more accurately determined pre-operatively.

Drs. Delgado and Kuzmik established their current practice in July 1990 at 8230 Leesburg Pike in Tysons, following with the Alexandria office in 1994, making them the longest-operating oral surgery team in Northern Virginia. Their specialties include:
