Get to know Dentist Dr. Joshua M. Ignatowicz, who serves patients in Henderson, Nevada.

An exceptional dentist, Dr. Ignatowicz is committed to providing superlative care at his private practice in Henderson, Nevada. Gentle, skilled, and considerate, he always makes time to understand and meet the individual needs of his patients. In addition to their health, he believes that his patient's comfort and confidence are what matter most. He enjoys cosmetic and family dentistry with a dedicated interest in surgery and oral implantology.

Fewer than 1% of dentists worldwide have received the doctor’s advanced level of training in implantology. He has attended the surgical fellowship program at the world-renowned Misch International Implant Institute, where he was awarded Fellowship status for completing both the surgical and prosthetics programs.

On a professional level, Dr. Ignatowicz has qualified for the highest honor a professional society can bestow on a dental professional, holding the title of Diplomate in both the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (DICOI), and the International Dental Implant Association (DIDIA). He demonstrates his dedication through ongoing participation in higher dental education courses and international study clubs. 

To boot, he is an active member of the American Dental Association, the National Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the Student National Dental Association. Through his devotion to new developments and techniques, continued education programs, and state-of-the-art dental technology such as 3D (cone beam) imaging, he can offer immeasurably more to patients than many other dental practices.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries, create beautiful smiles, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

On a more personal note, Dr. Ignatowicz resides with his wife and daughters in his native Las Vegas, where his family is his number one accomplishment and priority. He enjoys travel, hiking, cycling, and countless tea party/football game compromises.
