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've always had a good experience here. Dr. Stout is easy to talk with and explains things well. The staff are very friendly and professional. I like how they put you under for the procedures so you don't feel anything and even after I've had very little pain. I can't imagine going anywhere else.

The staff is amazing, absolutely outstanding customer service and professionalism. And Dr. Stout has earned my trust after dealing with my elderly dementia ridden mother and now with me for some pretty extensive treatment. Love his bedside manner as a doctor.

Dr.Stout and the staff at Anacapa Oral Surgery are nothing but amazing. They made it easy to understand the step by step process of getting upper implants. Dr. Stout is one of the few people that will tell you everything you need to know and not just what you want to hear. He saved me from getting my work done from a company that does things the fast and wrong way, and I would of paid the price for it. I have had my implants for about 4 years now with zero problems and they look great! I can't stress enough if you want things done right, and work with looking out for your best interest to Anacapa Oral Surgery! Feel free to contact Anacapa Oral surgery and ask for my contact information, I would be glad to talk to you.

I went to Anacapa a couple years back but let me tell you, by far, their staff is the nicest, most friendliest group of people I have ever met! Not to mention how organized and clean the office is! I'm glad I got to experience it especially with a procedure as dreadful as wisdom teeth removal! Thank you guys!!
