Exhilaration and Despair – Dr. O. Hilt Tatum

"It all started at a poker table when a fella mentioned we could replace three inside partials with endosteal implants. And boy did that set me off," Dr. O. Hilt Tatum.

Dr. O. Hilt Tatum has won almost every award the AAID has to offer and is recognized world-wide for his accomplishments in implant dentistry. Not only has Dr. Tatum solved some of the most complicated dental implant cases, but he has also overcome many near-death experiences. From falling off a horse to multiple heart attacks, Dr. Tatum won't let anything get in the way of his dream to expand the knowledge and education of implant dentistry.

Take a trip down memory-lane as Dr. Danny Domingue and guest-host, Dr. Vance Costello interview the dental implant legend, Dr. O. Hilt Tatum.

Recorded live from the 67th Annual Conference in Dallas, TX.
