Over the past 20 years, Todd E. Shatkin, DDS, has placed more than 20,000 mini dental implants.
He has utilized mini dental implants for denture stabilizations, single and multiple tooth replacements and for full arch reconstructions, with a success rate of 95%.
Dr. Shatkin’s seminal article “Mini Dental Implants for Long Term Fixed and Removable Prosthetics” was published in the Journal Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry February, 2007 issue pp 92-100 and has been well received.
His follow up article “Mini Dental Implants: A Retrospective Analysis of 5640 Implants Placed Over a 12-Year Period” was published in the Journal Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry September, 2012, Volume 33, Special Issue 3.
Because of positive experiences with mini dental implants, Dr. Shatkin developed the patented F.I.R.S.T® Technique (Fabricated Implant Restoration and Surgical Technique). This technique features a mini dental implant(s) with a lab fabricated, finished single tooth replacement in one visit, usually accomplished in less than thirty minutes, and to create the same results in less than an hour for three to five units, and less than two hours for a full arch restoration. With Dr. Shatkin’s technique and mini dental implants, patients enjoy not having to wait three to nine months for the healing and restoring of the implants. This happens with minimal or no patient discomfort, restorations at very affordable patient fees and the opportunity for the dentist to significantly build the practice’s earning with minimal startup costs.

“Increased demands for the functional and esthetic replacement of missing teeth have pushed mini dental implants to the forefront of our profession. Today, more than ever, the exciting treatment concept of mini dental implants has become an integral part of the general dental practice.” – Todd E. Shatkin, D.D.S.

Dr. Shatkin is a graduate of the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry. He is the President Emeritus of the International Academy of Mini Dental Implants and the owner of Shatkin F.I.R.S.T., LLC, a mini dental implant specialty laboratory. Dr. Shatkin has extensively lectured internationally on mini dental implants and is well respected as a world leader on mini dental implants. He practices full time in Amherst, a suburb of Buffalo, New York.

Gregory Serdahl’s working life has unfolded through consistent effort, practical responsibility, and long-term engagement with people and organizations. His career reflects a measured progression across creative study, nonprofit leadership, and therapeutic wellness, rather than a narrow or accelerated path. By combining leadership roles with hands-on practice, he developed an approach rooted in experience, accountability, and sustained service.

Across multiple decades, Gregory has operated in environments that required both structure and personal involvement. His professional background includes managing nonprofit arts organizations and later founding and operating a national wellness company. These roles placed him in collaboration with professional athletes, institutional clients, and public figures. In each setting, he focused on reliability, ethical conduct, and systems designed to function effectively over time.

Gregory’s academic journey began at the University of California, Irvine, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Theater between 1983 and 1986. His studies emphasized collaboration, performance theory, and disciplined preparation. These academic foundations later supported his professional work by strengthening communication skills, observation, and awareness of physical presence. During this period, he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, reflecting his commitment to academic engagement and structured learning.

A formative experience during Gregory’s early development was a year spent abroad at the University of Bergen in Oslo, Norway (1983-84). Living and studying in an international environment exposed him to different cultural perspectives and daily practices. This period encouraged adaptability and independence, qualities that later influenced his leadership style and approach to professional relationships.

After completing his education, Gregory entered the nonprofit arts sector and became artistic director of the Alisal Center for the Fine Arts. The organization served a primarily Hispanic migrant farmworker community by providing access to cultural programs and educational opportunities. From January 1986 to January 1989, he was responsible for daily operations, budgeting, fundraising, and community engagement. This role strengthened his ability to lead mission-driven organizations while remaining responsive to the needs of underserved populations.

Gregory’s transition into wellness followed his participation in massage programs at Michael O'Shea's Sport Training Institute. In 1991, he founded Serdahl Associates, which later became Massage America, Ltd. His goal was to build a massage and wellness organization capable of operating within large institutional environments. Under his leadership, the company managed massage programs for Crunch Fitness, several New York Sports Club locations, and the New York Football Giants during the Dan Reeves era.

Massage America later partnered with Mount Sinai and NYU hospitals, the Printing House Athletic Club, and the Manhattan Athletic Club. Gregory oversaw staffing, operations, and service consistency across these settings. These responsibilities reinforced his understanding of how therapeutic services can be integrated into athletic, medical, and corporate systems while maintaining professional standards.

Alongside his role as a business owner, Gregory continued to work directly with clients. His practice included individuals from politics, professional sports, media, and the arts. On one notable day, his schedule included Ed Koch, Lawrence Taylor, Edgar Bronfman, Katharine Hepburn, and Arthur Ashe. These experiences reflected trust developed through discretion, technical skill, and steady practice.

Gregory’s therapeutic background includes deep tissue massage, Swedish techniques, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and craniosacral therapy. He also incorporates yoga, Pilates, Yogic Neuromuscular Therapy, as taught by the late Dyal Singh Khalsa, Gyrotonics training, and certification as a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist.
