As a prosthodontist, Dr. Kupeyan specializes in treating a wide variety of complex dental conditions and restoring optimal function and aesthetics. Because of their extensive training and experience, prosthodontists have a special understanding of the dynamics of the human smile, the preservation of oral health, and the creation of tooth and related-tissue replacements.
Since obtaining his prosthodontic license, Dr. Kupeyan has continued his involvement with dental education. He has taught prosthodontic students at the University of Michigan since 1983. In 1987, he also began training and continues to train other dentists in both restorative and surgical aspects of dental implants at his teaching facility in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
Dr. Kupeyan’s research activities have focused on evaluating implants and restorative components and providing restorative solutions to patients with temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). His collaboration and research has been published in dental journals. Dr. Kupeyan’s study on immediate provisional crowning implants was one of the first published in the dental literature.
With age, many people lose their teeth due to disease, injury and even wear, and the absence of teeth places unnatural stress on the mouth’s structure and shape. Such stress can cause unwanted changes to one’s facial appearance, as well as detrimental effect on confidence and self-esteem. The efforts of
Dr. Kupeyan and his highly trained team of dental professionals and technicians can reverse these impacts.
