Prior to becoming an OMS, Dr. Tutor did a lot of carpentry. This hobby is what led him to look for a career where he could use creativity and work with his hands.

After attending dental school at the University of Tennessee, Dr. Tutor spent a year in private practice before a year-long internship at Parkland Hospital and the rest of his oral & maxillofacial residency at Allegheny General Hospital.

‍

Now, he helps patients restore their smiles everyday at Nuvia.

Why Nuvia

Dr. Tutor loves that he works with a CRNA so he can focus fully on the All-on-4® procedure. When Dr. Tutor learned that he would be able to help patients get back their oral health with permanent teeth in 24 hours, he knew he wanted to be part of the Nuvia team in Pittsburgh.

‍

Outside of the Office

When he isn’t working as an oral surgeon, Dr. Tutor loves to golf, deer hunt, and go fishing. 

‍

Dr. Chiani first got her passion for dentistry through a close relative working in pediatric dentistry. 

‍

As she got more involved in her studies she chose to pursue a career as a prosthodontist and has since found incredible fulfillment in helping patients get their smiles back.

‍

Dr. Chiani has been working in dentistry for 30 years. Her education includes an undergraduate degree in science and a total of 4 years of residency after graduating from dental school. Since then she has been practicing as a restorative dentist and is now working with the team at Nuvia’s Pittsburgh, PA center.

‍

She has always loved helping patients with full mouth dental implants. 

‍

Although this procedure is incredibly life changing for patients, she recognized the struggles patients had waiting for what could be months while their final teeth were being created. Working at Nuvia and being able to provide permanent teeth in 24 hours completely transferred patient’s experiences with dental implants.

‍

Dr Chiani’s patients can trust that they are in excellent hands. She is committed to ensuring that patients' wishes, concerns, and needs are heard and that they receive great care.
