About Dr. Saltman — Why McLean Patients Choose Him
McLean patients seeking an oral surgeon don't have to choose between technical excellence and a doctor who actually listens.

​
Who Is Dr. Saltman
Dr. Saltman is a nationally recognized authority in dental implantology, full-mouth implant reconstruction, and zirconia (metal-free, ceramic) implants. He is the only oral surgeon in the Washington DC metro area who trained with zirconia implants, and has pioneered entirely new surgical protocols for ceramic implant reconstruction — setting a new standard for metal-free implant surgery in the region.
​
As a Part-time Attending Surgeon on the elite Georgetown University Head & Neck Cancer Surgery team, Dr. Saltman performs life-changing jaw-in-a-day surgeries for oropharyngeal cancer survivors — and remains the only surgeon in the world performing this procedure using zirconia implants. He co-authored the textbook Oral Cancer: Evaluation, Therapy, and Rehabilitation (Thieme, 2020), and is widely known as the surgeon to see when you've been told you're "not a candidate for dental implants."
