Walter J. Kucaba
aka Walt



After graduating from WPHS I attended the University of Delaware and graduated in 1967 with a degree in biology. I then attended the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University in NYC where I received my DDS degree in 1971. I entered the Navy and was stationed on the USS Holland AS32 and USS Simon Lake AS33 both submarine tenders as an assistant dental officer in Rota, Spain. I then return back to the USA and was the Dental Office at the Naval Surface Weapons Center located in Dahlgren, Va. I was then picked for specialty training in Periodontics and attended the University of North Carolina, School of Dentistry where I received my certificate in Periodontics and a Masters Degree for my research project in 1977. I was fortunate to be selected to present this paper at the British Society of Periodontics in London. I then served as the regional periodontal consultant for Parris Island, The Marine Corps Air Station and Naval Hospital all located in Beaufort, SC., till 1980. I then left the Navy and started my practice in Spartanburg, South Carolina where I am still practicing today. My practice is limited to periodontal therapy, bone regeneration, and dental implants. I also treat patients with sleep apnea by constructing oral orthotics. I lecture nationally and internationally on the use of mini-dental implants to stabilize dentures, partials and replace missing teeth.

While at Columbia I met my wife Penni who I have been married to for 43 years. We have 3 children and 6 grandchildren. I still go to Vail, Co skiing every year. I am an avid golfer and boater.
