Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
Dr. Kramer’s interest in dental care started early! Born and raised in Delaware, he attended a dental technology program at Hodgson Vocational Technical High School, learning how to make custom dental crowns, bridges, and dentures. Then, he spent a year taking dental technology classes at the National School of Health Technology in Philadelphia. From there, it seemed natural to proceed to dental school, and the technical skills that he acquired during these early years are still much appreciated by his patients.
Today, Dr. Kramer still sets very high standards for himself when it comes to patient care. He goes above and beyond to provide them with high-quality improvements and treats everyone just the way he would want to be treated.
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
Dr. Kramer attended the University of Delaware for his undergraduate work and then graduated with honors as a Doctor of Dental Medicine from the Temple University School of Dentistry. He was also a member of the periodontal, endodontics, oral surgery, and prosthodontics honor societies. Today, he is proud to have earned a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry, which is an honor achieved by fewer than 5% of all dentists in the US. He’s also undergone a General Practice Residency at Christiana Hospital and attended advanced restorative training at both The world-renowned Dawson Academy and the Chesapeake Dental Education Center. In addition to the AGD, he is also a member of the following organizations:
-
Academy of General Dentistry (Master)
-
American Dental Association
-
Delaware State Dental Society (Past President)
-
American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry
-
International Congress of Oral Implantologists
-
Kent-Sussex Dental Society (Past President)
Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?
Dr. Kramer is happily married to his high school sweetheart Marie, and they have three wonderful grown children who all entered into the medical profession – in fact, one is a dentist too! In his free time, he enjoys offshore sport fishing and boating with family and friends. Dentistry is also genuinely one of his favorite hobbies, and he likes to learn all he can about the field.
