Dr. Paul Mirdamadi, DDS, MS Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon in San Diego

Dr. Otabor Okundaye is the restorative dentist and prosthodontist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in San Diego, CA. He completed his undergraduate studies at Xavier University in New Orleans and earned his dental degree from Meharry Medical College. He went on to complete a hospital dentistry residency at UCLA and his prosthodontics training at the West LA VA, and brings more than two decades of experience to the team.

Across his career, Dr. Okundaye has treated patients dealing with years of pain, infection, and complex dental issues. What draws him to full arch care is the chance to help patients turn the page—not just restoring teeth, but watching people come into their own and start a new chapter of life.

Why Nuvia

Dr. Okundaye joined Nuvia because of the concept of permanent teeth in 24 hours. After decades of working with dental implants and temporaries that could fracture or drag treatment out over months, he sees delivering the final restoration the very next day as the direction the whole industry should be moving in. It’s a game-changing model, and one he wanted to be part of.

For patients who are nervous, his advice is simple: take the first step. Once patients meet the team and feel the family presence at the clinic, the rest of the process starts to feel less intimidating. He and the team walk each patient through it step by step, working toward the end result they came in hoping for.

Outside of the Office

Outside of work, Dr. Okundaye loves fitness. Weight training and hiking are two of his favorite activities, and on weekends you’re likely to find him out on a trail, going for a run, or hitting the gym.
