Dr. Joshua Munson, DDS, MD - Oral Surgeon in Fort Mill

Dr. Devin Patel is the restorative dentist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. He chose dentistry because it is one of the few professions where you can make an immediate, visible difference in someone’s life. Helping patients go from disliking their smile to feeling confident again is what drives his work every day.

‍

Dr. Patel earned his dental degree from the Dental College of Georgia. He enjoys restorative dentistry because it allows him to focus on both function and appearance—making sure patients can smile, speak, and eat comfortably.

‍

Why Nuvia?

Dr. Patel was drawn to Nuvia in Fort Mill, SC for one main reason: the ability to deliver a complete smile transformation in just 24 hours. In other settings, even if patients wanted that outcome, the structure and support simply haven’t been there to make it happen.

‍

At Nuvia, the teamwork and systems are built specifically to support Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours. That infrastructure allows Dr. Patel to focus on designing smiles that fit each patient’s goals—without stretching treatment over months or years.

Outside of the Office

Outside the clinic, Dr. Patel enjoys skiing and spending time outdoors. He and his wife also love traveling and are working their way through visiting as many U.S. national parks as possible. Exploring new places together is one of their favorite ways to unwind and recharge.

Dr. Joshua Munson is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. His path to oral surgery came from a strong interest in both medicine and dentistry, and he found oral surgery to be the right balance of the two.

‍

Dr. Munson completed all of his training at UNC Chapel Hill, spending 14 years there before finishing in 2022. He began his career in private practice, where he gained valuable experience before deciding to expand his exposure to full-arch implant surgery.

‍

Why Nuvia?

Dr. Munson joined Nuvia in Fort Mill to gain more hands-on experience with full-arch implant cases. While he enjoyed private practice, he wanted to spend more time focused on this type of surgery without sending patients to multiple offices or stretching treatment over many months like traditional approaches may require.

‍

At Nuvia, patients can complete their surgery and receive their teeth in one place, on a clear timeline. For Dr. Munson, that simplicity makes it easier for patients to move forward—and easier for him to do the work he enjoys most.

‍

Outside of the Office

Outside of work, Dr. Munson spends most of his time with his wife and three children. When he finds extra time, he enjoys going to the gym and playing golf. Family time is his priority, and he values keeping life balanced both inside and outside the clinic.
