Why Did Dr. Milner Become a Dentist?

Well, there wasn't a specific "aha!" moment where Dr. Milner realized he wanted to be a dentist. However, Dr. Milner had a close family friend who became his dental mentor and eventually convinced him to give dentistry a shot (pun intended). Over time, Dr. Milner spent some time shadowing in dental offices and decided that this was the career path he wanted to pursue and he hasn't looked back since!

Where Did Dr. Milner Study Dentistry?

While earning his dental degree at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, he completed an externship at Kernan Hospital at the University of Maryland, where his work was focused on pediatric dentistry. Afterward, he had the opportunity to work with geriatric patients at Levindale Hospital. Subsequently, he practiced for six years as an associate dentist in Hanover, PA, where he learned that he truly enjoys working with patients of all ages.

Over his career, Dr. Milner has completed advanced training in many areas of dentistry, including dental sleep medicine and treating sleep apnea. He has also earned fellowship with Implant Pathway, a training program in implant dentistry. He is also a certified provider for Invisalign.

What Does Dr. Milner Do Outside the Office?

Dr. Milner is happily married and has four active kids: Judah, Kyra, Maya, and Zachy. As you might imagine, his family keeps him pretty busy! They are currently living in Pikesville, and don’t be surprised to see them out and about in the community. Dr. Milner loves watching and playing all sports, but his preferred sport to play is basketball. If you want to talk sports during your appointment, he is a fan of the Redskins, Orioles, Capitals, Wizards, and Terps, but he's happy to talk about any and all teams!

We hope to see you and your loved ones in our office soon!
