ABOUT ME
Dr. Vivian Roknian
EDUCATION
​
My educational path began at St. Monica Catholic Elementary and High Schools, where I built a strong academic foundation. I then continued to UCLA, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychobiology. Following this, I pursued my dental degree at Temple University, where my passion for implant dentistry blossomed. I have never stopped learning, holding numerous fellowships and a diplomate certificate from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. With over 2,400 hours of continuing education credits in implant dentistry, my commitment to lifelong learning and professional growth is unwavering.
PROFESSIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS
​
As a healthcare provider, I am highly effective in understanding peoples needs. This empathy spans from health issues, financial challenges, and often times topics that people can find embarrassing. Given my career in healthcare, I have dedicated my life to directly helping and understanding people. Over my years in practice, I have done pro bono work for victims of the Innocence Project, and have an Adjunct Professor appointment where I teach Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery residents management of implant surgery complications, this is also done on my dime. In September of 2024, I will become an official Fellow of the International College of Dentists. Fewer than 3% of dentists in the United States have been accepted for this Fellowship, a leading honorary dental organization dedicated to the recognition of outstanding professional achievement, meritorious service, and the continued progress of the profession of dentistry for the benefit of all humankind. My publications and lectures cover everything from technical implant placement to the broader impact of dental health on overall well-being. Recognized for their depth and impact, my contributions have helped advance dental practices worldwide.
