My mission is to restore the confidence that comes from a healthy smile. I specialize in periodontics and dental implant placement, focusing on conservative and surgical treatment of gum disease including cosmetic procedures to aesthetically enhance smiles. I have worked hard to create a team of individuals who are committed to treating patients with respect and care. I am proud of the team of professionals I surround myself with every day.
For Dr. Michael Edwards, entering into dentistry was a foregone conclusion since college. 'Having lunch with his dentist to better understand the profession, sealed the deal, he remembers. 'I knew I wanted to work in healthcare, and to own my own practice. It became clear that dentistry was my destiny!' Dr. Edwards credits his persistence and attention to detail as a form of natural selection. It created opportunities that led to his choosing periodontics as a specialty.
Dr. Edwards grew up in Carmel, IN, and was both the Vice President of his class and captain of the wrestling team. His summer job as a golf caddie helped him earn the Evans Scholarship, while imbuing him with a love of the game. A double major in Chemistry and Biology at Indiana University led to years of study at the Indiana University School of Dentistry. Dr. Edwards achieved his DDS, his Certificate of Periodontics, and his MS. He followed up with certification in a variety of specialty procedures, including teeth in a day and IV sedation.
I see my primary goal as being to orchestrate a team to deliver the highest level dentistry through a comfortable, comforting process,' Edwards says. The team isn 't just myself, my staff, and any other dentists involved it includes the patient as well. I also strive to serve as a visionary for the practice, to create a place for us in the rapidly changing dental marketplace. I love watching my team grow and become stronger. I also love being able to sit with patients who had been told by other practices that they couldn 't be helped, and going over everything we 've done together.'
When he 's not creating partnerships with patients to achieve their oral health goals, Dr. Edwards is spending time with his family. His wife, Dr. Michelle Edwards is a dentist and author, and the couple have three children, Jackson, Alexis, and Lila. In my idea of a perfect weekend, my score on the golf course would be perfect, the kids would all get along, no fishing lines would be tangled and I 'd make a whopper of a catch,' Dr. Edwards says, but admits that simply sitting on his own couch, surrounded by loved ones, is blissful.

I had a gum graft here. Everything went really well and I always felt taken care of. I live in between the two locations and was able to alternate between the two depending on what worked for my schedule during after care.

If you need a gum graft I highly recommend going here! Dr Edwards and his entire staff are amazing. Being terrified of dentist offices they made this experience painless and comfortable at each visit with a great outcome. I couldn't be happier!

I have had several procedures in this office in the last few years. Every contact, every person has been kind, helpful, and over and above in actions and words. Dr Edwards is thoughtful, gentle, friendly and caring. He's an extraordinary doctor! If I could give a score of 10 I would!!

I have had 4 gum grafting surgeries with Dr. Edwards. The first time I was very nervous and anxious. I chose sedation which greatly reduced my anxiety. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about my experience with all my surgeries. Dr. Edwards was kind and my surgeries were successful. The office staff and the care I received was outstanding. I would strongly recommend him to others. It is definitely not a fun surgery but Dr. Edwards made it as easy as possible and my recovery time was relatively quick. I am very grateful to Dr. Edwards.

Dr. Edwards and his staff provided an excellent service for my implant needs. The expectations for each visit we're always explained to me and post procedure follow up by Dr. Edwards via a telephone call on a Friday evening after business hours was very much appreciated. Thank you.

I absolutely love this place! They are helpful, friendly, and absolutely professional! I have had a terrible time with my teeth for years and after getting gum surgery, I feel 1000% better!! I had to have tissue graft for my lower teeth and I was terrified! But Implant Dentistry made the entire process painless and I am soooo happy with my results!
