Dr. Padgett graduated
with honors in Oral Surgery and received his Doctorate of
Dental surgery from Loyola University in Chicago, Illinois
in 1984. Following in the family tradition, as his father
had graduated from Loyola in 1950, he then joined his father’s
restorative dental practice that had been providing dental
care to the North Shore of Chicago since 1950.
Immediately, Dr. Padgett began furthering his clinical skills
by frequently attending the L.D. Pankey Institute, acknowledged
as one of the world’s foremost centers of advanced dental
education, dedicated to furthering professional skills and
enhancing the dentist-patient relationship.
He
also began providing care and teaching internationally. He
continues at present to do this on a part time basis in Thailand.
Dr. Padgett relocated to Florida in 2000 where he now provides
the same standard of excellence that he did in Chicago and
internationally. His current office is located in Lecanto
Rt 491 at the Citrus Memorial Health Care Center at Allen
Ridge.

In
the early 90’s, Dr Padgett began assisting international
organizations in developing and delivering dental care to
remote regions of the world. He made yearly trips to the Himalayas
in Nepal, and provided care with a team of physicians to Nepalese
and Tibetan refugees and Buddhist monks. After some years
he was invited to live in a Thai monestary with Buddhist monks.
While he lived there, he taught and provided dentistry while
studying.
