Dr. Uzi Kamal grew up in London, Ontario before making North Carolina his permanent home. He received two Bachelor of Science undergraduate degrees at Western University in Canada, double majoring with honors in medical science and biology in 2012. During his last year in college, Dr. Kamal was commissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy and proudly served the Canadian Armed Forces as a Maritime Surface and Subsurface Officer and Sub-lieutenant for six years, four of which were served while he attended dental school. He was indelibly recognized at the national level for his extensive naval vessel training, in addition to his strong leadership and navigation skills by the Department of National Defence. In 2018, he decided to depart from the Navy to fully immerse himself in his completed Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the Indiana University School of Dentistry in Indianapolis. Today, Dr. Kamal still gives credit to the Navy for his foundation of discipline, work ethic, and dedication while he served, and he now applies those same qualities when serving patients in his community.

Dr. Kamal has worked for a number of dental offices in Arkansas before bringing his professional skills to Black Bear Dental. He worked in Blytheville, Fort Smith, Jonesboro, Paragould, and West Memphis as a general dentist in addition to working at a pediatric office treating children and special-needs patients in both hospital and private practice settings. Dr. Kamal also travels around the world to follow his passion of helping others, and recently traveled to Lebanon to help treat refugees in need of urgent dental care. He plans on continuing to fulfill his passion both personally and professionally through future mission trips in Honduras and Jordan.

Due to Dr. Kamal’s enthusiasm in committing himself to improving the lives of his patients, and to a life time of learning, he has taken numerous opportunities to increase his understanding of medicine and surgery as it relates to dentistry. He is certified in Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) through the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, as he takes pride in seeking the most natural and holistic alternatives to treatment. Dr. Kamal believes in the safest and healthiest, biological approaches to dental care and always thrives to gain more knowledge in the world of holistic medicine and dentistry.

He holds memberships in the American Dental Association, the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, North Carolina Dental Association, American Academy of Facial Esthetics, and the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. Currently, he is in the process of receiving his status of Diplomate of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. He is currently immersed in the Progressive Orthodontic Seminars curriculum as well as the McCracken Implant Education course, both of which are known in the dental community to be well-renowned postgraduate training programs.

Outside of the office, Dr. Kamal can be found training at the gym, traveling domestically and internationally, watching the Toronto Maple Leafs play hockey and playing soccer. He studied multiple languages including French and Spanish, and is fluent in English and Arabic. Among all of his outside interests, he most enjoys traveling and hiking the Blue Ridge mountains with his beloved Samoyed, Jon Snow.

If you’re missing teeth, we’re here to give your smile a second chance! Dental implants have revolutionized how us dentists approach smile reconstruction. With implant dentistry, we can recreate your natural smile down to a tee, restoring look and function.

What are dental implants?

Simply put, dental implants are prosthetic teeth. They look and function just like your natural smile but are made with high-quality materials right in our office!

Every dental implant is made up of three parts. A titanium artificial root, called a post, is implanted into your jawbone to integrate with the natural structure. Hence the name “dental implants”. From there, we place an abutment and custom crown right on top.

Am I a candidate for dental implant?

Honestly, a lot of our patients are perfect candidates for dental implants. But, in order to determine if you are, you’ll need to come in for a consultation. We’ll run the appropriate tests and get the right imaging to confirm that your oral structures are healthy enough for implants. This includes your jawbone density and placement of your sinuses. If your mouth is in need of preparatory procedures, we’ll be able to walk you through your options.

Benefits of implant dentistry:
