Born and raised in Southern California. Dr. Stout earned his bachelors degree at Brigham Young University, attending as a Presidents Scholar and graduating Magna Cum Laude. He then earned his doctorate at the UCLA School of Dentistry, attending as a Regents Scholar and graduating with highest honors. His academic achievements have earned him membership in two of the most prestigious national honor societies, Phi Kappa Phi and Omicron Kappa Upsilon.
After dental school, Doctor Stout completed an additional four years of formal specialty training at the UCLA Medical Center, where he scored in the top one percent of all surgery residents in the United States. He established his specialty practice of oral surgery and dental implant reconstruction in 1992, with offices in Oxnard and Camarillo. He earned the highest qualification in his specialty, board-certification in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, in his first year of eligibility.
Dr. Stout is also a gifted lecturer and teacher. In 2002, he established the Anacapa Study Club, an education institute where he and other scholars train fellow dentists in dental implant and other advanced dentistry and reconstruction techniques.
Dr. Stout is married to his lovely college sweetheart, and they are the parents of six children. He loves movies (check out our collection of vintage movie posters) dirt bikes, dark chocolate, basketball (especially his beloved UCLA Bruins), boating, or any other activity as long as it is with his family. He suspended his college studies for two years to serve as a missionary in Taiwan, so he is always looking for a chance to brush up on his Mandarin Chinese.
Quite simply, receiving treatment from an experienced, board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgery specialist gives you the highest chance for successful treatment. Instead of attempting in vain to be a master of all dentistry, a board-certified surgeon limits his practice to only surgical treatments such as difficult tooth extractions, dental implants, gum surgery and jawbone reconstruction. In addition, oral surgeons are trained and licensed to administer sedation and general anesthesia.
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is the only surgical specialty recognized by the American Dental Association. Oral surgeons are required to complete 4 to 6 additional years of formal, accredited training after completing dental school. This hospital-based residency is unique to oral and maxillofacial surgeons and is brutally rigorous, usually requiring 80-90 hour workweeks. Following residency, the board certification exam generally requires years of preparation to pass. In spite of numerous attempts, many surgeons never do.
It is technically legal for any licensed dentist to perform any dental procedure. But when a non-surgeon such as a general dentist or periodontist (gum specialist) attends a weekend crash course on sedation pills or dental implants, he does not become equally qualified or skilled to diagnose, perform surgery, or handle all the potential complications that can arise in surgery. Specialty staff training also plays a vital role in the practice of true surgical specialty care.
Doctor Stout understands what a privilege it is to live and practice in Ventura County and he enjoys giving back to our community. He volunteers his professional time pro bono at many charity health events, and donates over 10 percent of his income to charities such as:

I went to Dr. Stout and his team for my wisdom teeth removal and that following year for a dental implant. They are super friendly and help and very clear on pricing. Dr. Stout truly cares about the health of his patients and you can tell that everyone in the office feels the same. I would recommend Anacapa Oral Surgery to anyone who needs dental work done

They make wisdom tooth surgery as easy as possible, it's been a few days after my surgery and the packet they give to help you after surgery and just the overall experience is the best it could have gone.

Dr. Stout and his staff are the nicest team. I highly recommend going to them for anybody that appreciates excellent care and treatment. They're all so personable and take wonderful care of their patients. Scheduling and payments are so easy and quick, it was really impressive for an office in high demand to be so attentive to each patient. I had my wisdom teeth taken out and they gave me the best post-op care and information to take home with all essential supplies needed. I had to get in for an appointment before my follow up appointment and he saw me within thirty minutes of calling his office. I love that they treat major surgery patients with the same care and attention of any other. I am so happy to have gone with Dr. Stout and his staff team. Thanks guys!
