Dr. Frank De Latour is the oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. Dentistry has always been part of his life as the son of a longtime dentist, and he saw early on how much a healthy smile can change someone’s confidence and quality of life.
Dr. De Latour earned his dental degree from Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry and has been practicing for over ten years. He enjoys combining surgical precision with compassionate care, making patient comfort and safety a top priority.
Dr. De Latour was drawn to Nuvia for its strong focus on safety, teamwork, and predictable results. He values Nuvia’s approach of having a surgeon and CRNA take care of every patient, which allows each provider to stay focused on their task while giving a safe and comfortable experience.
He is especially passionate about Nuvia’s Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours process, which allows patients to receive a full, permanent smile without months of waiting. Seeing patients quickly regain confidence after surgery is one of the most rewarding parts of his work.
Outside the clinic, Dr. De Latour enjoys spending time with his children and supporting them in their activities. He also loves the outdoors and spends his free time hiking, camping, and enjoying fresh air and sunshine.
Dr. Jack Krajekian is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. He has been practicing oral surgery for over 25 years and brings extensive experience across the full scope of surgical care.
Dr. Krajekian completed his advanced training in Boston at Tufts University and New England Medical Center. Throughout his career, he has been driven by one core value: making a real impact. He finds deep fulfillment in helping patients restore their smiles, improve their ability to eat comfortably, and regain confidence in their daily lives.

Dr. Joshua Munson is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. His path to oral surgery came from a strong interest in both medicine and dentistry, and he found oral surgery to be the right balance of the two.
Dr. Munson completed all of his training at UNC Chapel Hill, spending 14 years there before finishing in 2022. He began his career in private practice, where he gained valuable experience before deciding to expand his exposure to full-arch implant surgery.
Dr. Munson joined Nuvia in Fort Mill to gain more hands-on experience with full-arch implant cases. While he enjoyed private practice, he wanted to spend more time focused on this type of surgery without sending patients to multiple offices or stretching treatment over many months like traditional approaches may require.
At Nuvia, patients can complete their surgery and receive their teeth in one place, on a clear timeline. For Dr. Munson, that simplicity makes it easier for patients to move forward—and easier for him to do the work he enjoys most.
Outside of work, Dr. Munson spends most of his time with his wife and three children. When he finds extra time, he enjoys going to the gym and playing golf. Family time is his priority, and he values keeping life balanced both inside and outside the clinic.
Dr. Terry Dingbaum is a restorative dentist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. He has been involved in dentistry since the age of 13, starting with small jobs for local dentists before eventually working inside their offices. From an early age, he knew dentistry was the right path for him.
Dr. Dingbaum earned his dental degree from Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska, and is approaching 37 years in dentistry. Throughout his career, he has focused on long-term outcomes, predictability, and helping patients regain comfort and confidence with their smiles.
Dr. Dingbaum was drawn to Nuvia because of its focus on patients who have often struggled with dental care due to fear, complexity, or long treatment timelines. In traditional implant dentistry, he saw how drawn-out and difficult the process could be—for both patients and providers.
What stood out to him about Nuvia was the ability to simplify that journey. The Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours process removes months of uncertainty and allows patients to complete treatment quickly and move forward with their lives. For Dr. Dingbaum, that clarity and efficiency make a real difference in patient care.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Dingbaum values time with his family above all else, especially his two young grandchildren. He also has a strong passion for skiing and staying active in the mountains, which makes Fort Mill—and frequent trips west—the perfect fit for his lifestyle.
Dr. Devin Patel is the restorative dentist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in Fort Mill, South Carolina. He chose dentistry because it is one of the few professions where you can make an immediate, visible difference in someone’s life. Helping patients go from disliking their smile to feeling confident again is what drives his work every day.
Dr. Patel earned his dental degree from the Dental College of Georgia. He enjoys restorative dentistry because it allows him to focus on both function and appearance—making sure patients can smile, speak, and eat comfortably.
Dr. Patel was drawn to Nuvia in Fort Mill, SC for one main reason: the ability to deliver a complete smile transformation in just 24 hours. In other settings, even if patients wanted that outcome, the structure and support simply haven’t been there to make it happen.
At Nuvia, the teamwork and systems are built specifically to support Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours. That infrastructure allows Dr. Patel to focus on designing smiles that fit each patient’s goals—without stretching treatment over months or years.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Patel enjoys skiing and spending time outdoors. He and his wife also love traveling and are working their way through visiting as many U.S. national parks as possible. Exploring new places together is one of their favorite ways to unwind and recharge.
The traditional dental implant process can be outdated, inconvenient and long. Nuvia’s 24hr permanent teeth process is safe, convenient and fast.

Find a Location Near YouYour comfort matters as much as your results. That’s why we’ve designed every step of the Nuvia experience around calm, confidence, and care. During your procedure, you’ll rest comfortably under anesthesia, monitored by a CRNA whose only focus is your safety and peace of mind. And because of Nuvia’s 24-hour process, you’ll skip the temporary plastic teeth and long healing stages entirely. The next day, you’ll see your real, custom zirconia smile.

How long does it really take to get my new teeth?
At Nuvia Fort Mill, your permanent zirconia teeth are delivered just 24 hours after your surgery—not months later. While some healing still happens beneath the surface, you can start smiling and eating with your new teeth the very next day.
What’s the difference between Nuvia and other dental implant centers?
Many providers still use a slow, traditional approach with temporary plastic teeth. They can sometimes outsource other members of their team as well (independent oral surgeons, 3rd party CRNAs, etc).
At Nuvia, everything—from your surgery to your final zirconia teeth—is done under one roof by a coordinated team of experts. That means you’re likely to have fewer appointments, less waiting, and lasting results.
Will I need to take time off work?
Most patients take about a week off after surgery to rest and adjust to their new smile. Because you receive your permanent teeth right away, there’s not likely to be an awkward stage nor will there by any need to return for temporary fittings.
