For Dr. Arya, dentistry has always been about more than procedure—it’s about giving people back their confidence and comfort to eat, smile, and speak freely again.
As a Surgical Dentist and Chief Clinical Officer at Elevate Dental in Dayton, Ohio, Dr. Arya specializes in full-arch smile restorations, helping patients who’ve struggled with missing or failing teeth get a complete, permanent solution in as little as a day. Using advanced CT-guided planning, he’s able to map out each patient’s treatment with precision before ever picking up an instrument, which means fewer surprises and a smoother recovery.
With over 14 years of experience, Dr. Arya holds a dual dental degree, a DDS with Honours from the University at Buffalo, and a BDS from India. He went on to complete his oral and maxillofacial surgery training (MDS in OMS) at AIIMS New Delhi, one of India’s most competitive and respected medical institutions. He is a Fellow of the International College of Dentists (FICD), a Fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy, an Associate Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), and holds membership with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI). He also maintains active memberships with the American Dental Association (ADA), the International Team for Implantology (ITI), and the Ohio Dental Association (ODA).
Dr. Arya believes good oral health should be within everyone’s reach, a belief that keeps him active in community service and mentoring the next generation of implant specialists. Outside the office, he’s just as likely to be found on a hiking trail, on the tennis court, or curled up with a good book, though most of all, spending time with family tops the list. If you’re ready to see what a confident smile feels like, Dr. Arya and his team would love to help you get there.
