Heart of a Champion
Whether treating a Philadelphia Eagle or a community member, the team led by Dr. Dilip Dudhat strives to deliver a championship-winning dental experience: affordable, accessible, and free of fear.
Considering the outcome of this year’s Super Bowl and the championship parade down Broad Street five days later, it’s a fantastic year to be a Philadelphia sports fan. It’s also a great year to be a fan of another winning team, Dudhat Dental Group, which is the Official Dentist of the Philadelphia Eagles.
“Quarterbacked” by Dilip N. Dudhat, D.M.D., DICOI, Dudhat Dental Group has grown into one of the area’s most comprehensive and sought-after dental practices. The practice’s more than 20 offices throughout the Philadelphia area offer implant, cosmetic, and general dentistry delivered by highly trained dentists, dental hygienists, and other professionals staffs.
Each office under the Dudhat Dental Group umbrella is an oasis of sorts, where patients of all ages and backgrounds can find a long-term dental home. Why? Because Dr. Dudhat has gone to great lengths to erase the traditional barriers to treatment: dental phobias, limited financial means, and limited availability. Each staff member is trained to provide gentle and empathetic care, including sedation options to help fearful patients feel at ease throughout their procedures. The practice also offers multiple payment options, including an in-house payment plan, to make treatment as affordable as possible.
A 1987 graduate of Temple University Maurice H. Kornberg School of Dentistry in 1987, Dr. Dudhat continues to be driven by his passion for health care and his vision for the future of dentistry. Whether someone needs a six-month cleaning and exam or an advanced procedure, such as dental implants or the treatment of periodontal disease, Dudhat Dental Group strives to deliver care their patients can trust. Dr. Dudhat and his team have completed more than 10,000 surgical implants, along with more than 20,000 implant restorations to address implant-specific complications.
Dr. Dudhat believes strongly in continuing education and the adoption of the latest technology to facilitate treatment. Patients in need of dental implants, for example, benefit from 3D imaging and the YOMI® robotic dental implant system, which is designed to deliver precise implant placement and more predictable outcomes. For regular six-month cleanings, the practice has adopted AIRFLOW®, a Swiss-made technology that uses a highly effective combination of compressed air, water, and fine powder to address discoloration and remove stubborn stains; it also removes dental biofilm, the primary factor behind cavities, periodontal disease, and other unwanted conditions that can compromise one’s dental health. Other cutting-edge technologies, such as intraoral scanners and cone beam computed tomography, provide vital information designed to enhance treatment planning.
“We take a lot of pride in what we do and have great passion for what we do,” Dr. Dudhat says. “We are honored whenever someone decides to trust us with their care, and that’s why we’re going to make sure patients have the best possible experience. We believe in continuing education to improve our skill sets, and we continually invest in the practice with the latest technology. If there’s something we can do to meet someone’s needs and provide a better overall experience, we’re going to do it.”
Dudhat Dental Group also offers veneers and advanced smile makeovers, as well as options to address issues such as snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. No matter the need, Dr. Dudhat and his team have every tool at their disposal to personalize treatments that have the potential to improve patients’ aesthetics, boost their self-esteem, and enhance their quality of life.
Dr. Dudhat’s patient list includes members of the Eagles team. A long-time supporter of Philadelphia’s sports teams, Dr. Dudhat has been the Official Dentist of the Philadelphia Eagles since 2021. Whether they need dental care for an on-field injury or from the wear and tear of daily life, these elite athletes rely on Dudhat Dental Group to keep their smiles and oral health in “game shape.”
In other words, Dudhat Dental Group strives to be a dental destination for all patients. Dr. Dudhat wants everyone to feel comfortable having their smiles cared for with the utmost care, skill, and compassion from the moment they meet a team member at the front desk, to the moment they take a seat in the dental chair, to the moment they leave the office.
“That’s what we’ve been doing for more than 25 years,” he says. “Whether it’s one of the Eagles or one of our neighbors, our patients can expect an experience of the highest quality.”
