In his practice, Dr. Kogan takes a comprehensive and holistic approach to dental care, understanding the connection between oral health and general health. "The health of the mouth is inseparable from the health of the body," he emphasizes. Dr. Kogan is a big proponent of Minimally Invasive Dentistry (Microdentistry), which focuses on preserving healthy tooth structure through prevention, remineralization, and minimal intervention. By utilizing scientific advancements and specialized techniques, this approach allows Dr. Kogan to perform the least invasive treatment necessary while conserving as much tooth structure as possible to restore teeth to their optimal condition. Additionally, it employs high-quality, long-lasting dental materials to enhance tooth preservation and minimize the need for future repairs. Dr. Kogan's extensive post-graduate training enables him to provide advanced procedures, including dental implants, Invisalign, porcelain veneers, and more. Outside of work, Dr. Kogan enjoys spending time with his wife, Julia, the office manager of their practice, and their two sons, Daniel and Edward. He also loves reading, swimming, and traveling. |
