Dr. Babak Robert Etemad, DMD
An implant and sedation specialist who has dedicated his career to making advanced, comfortable dentistry both accessible and affordable — all under one roof.
A personal reason behind the practice
Dr. Etemad’s passion for dentistry began with a problem of his own — a dental issue he couldn’t afford to fix. That experience shaped the way he practices to this day.
Today, he is driven by a simple mission: to make high-quality dental care affordable and within reach for every patient. He built Palm Beach Institute of Dentistry as a true all-in-one office, bringing implants, cosmetic work, sedation, and full-mouth reconstruction together in one place — so patients don’t have to travel between specialists or pay more than they should.
A graduate of Nova Southeastern University’s College of Dental Medicine, Dr. Etemad finished first in his class in 2007 and went on to serve as a faculty member in the Dental Anatomy Lab, Fixed Prosthodontics, and Restorative departments. His commitment to teaching and continued education has never stopped.
Fluent in English, Persian, and Spanish, Dr. Etemad connects with West Palm Beach’s diverse community and builds lasting relationships rooted in trust and comfort. He has also given his time to numerous dental mission trips, providing free care to underserved communities in the United States and abroad.
