Dr. Merat Ostovar — Implant Surgeon and Practice Leader
Dr Merat Ostovar Dentist Beaverton is a specialized dental service provided by the board-certified specialists at Aloha Dental Specialty Center in Beaverton, OR. ICOI Fellow. 15+ years. Thousands of implants. 98%+ success rate.
Dr. Merat Ostovar — Implant Surgeon and Practice Leader
Dr. Merat Ostovar founded Aloha Dental Specialty Center on a straightforward premise: complex dental care should be handled by specialists who do it every day, in a facility built for the work, with technology that eliminates guesswork. Over the past fifteen-plus years, he has placed thousands of dental implants — single units, multiple implants, full-arch All-on-4 and All-on-X reconstructions, zygomatic implants, and immediate-load protocols — with a documented success rate above 98 percent. That number is tracked through follow-up imaging and clinical records, not self-reported estimates.
His Fellowship with the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI) — the world's largest implant-focused dental organization — reflects a commitment to continuing education that goes well beyond state-mandated minimums. ICOI Fellowship requires documented case volume, demonstrated clinical competence, and ongoing participation in advanced training. Dr. Ostovar maintains active involvement in implant research, guided surgery protocols, and biologic healing optimization through platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) techniques that he incorporates into his daily surgical practice.
Patients choose Dr. Ostovar for the combination of experience and precision. He reads every CBCT scan personally, plans every implant digitally before operating, and uses 3D-printed surgical guides to transfer that plan to the patient's mouth with sub-millimeter accuracy. He performs IV sedation cases for patients who need it, manages medically complex patients in coordination with their physicians, and handles the cases that other offices refer out — the severe bone deficiencies, the failed implants from other providers, the full-mouth reconstructions that require surgical and prosthetic integration. After fifteen years, the clinical judgment that comes from high-volume, high-complexity experience is what patients and referring dentists trust most.

Understanding Your Investment
At Aloha Dental Specialty Center, we provide transparent pricing before any treatment begins. The cost of your procedure depends on clinical complexity, materials used, and sedation requirements. We walk you through every line item during your consultation so there are no surprises.
What Affects Cost:
- Clinical Complexity: Bone loss, sinus proximity, nerve involvement, or the need for grafting affects treatment planning and surgical time.
- Materials: We use research-backed implant systems, purified bone graft matrices, and high-strength ceramics from established manufacturers.
- Sedation: Options range from local anesthesia to IV sedation, each with different associated costs. We discuss the best option for your comfort and procedure.
Insurance & Financing
We accept most major dental insurance plans and file claims on your behalf. Our team verifies your benefits before treatment and submits pre-treatment estimates with clinical documentation to maximize coverage.
For out-of-pocket costs, we partner with CareCredit and Cherry for flexible payment plans. We also offer our ADSC Dental Savings Plan for patients without insurance.
Recovery & Healing Timeline
Understanding the healing process helps you plan ahead and follow post-operative instructions for the best possible outcome.
First 48 Hours
Mild swelling and tenderness are normal. Apply ice packs in 20-minute intervals and take prescribed or over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication. Eat soft foods and avoid the surgical site when chewing.
Days 3 to 7
Swelling peaks around day three and then improves. The tissue begins closing over the surgical site. Continue with soft foods and use any prescribed antimicrobial rinse. Most patients return to normal activities during this phase.
Long-Term Healing
Surface tissue heals within two to three weeks. Bone integration and deep healing continue for three to six months. Avoid smoking, follow up as scheduled, and maintain good oral hygiene throughout recovery.
Questions during recovery? Call us at (503) 822-0096. We are available for post-operative concerns.
Clinical Philosophy and Training
Dr. Ostovar's clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based implantology: CBCT-guided surgical planning for every implant case, prosthetically driven implant positioning (placing the implant where the tooth needs to be, not where the bone is easiest), PRF biologics for accelerated healing, and premium implant systems with documented long-term performance data. His surgical training encompasses ridge augmentation, sinus lift (lateral and crestal), guided bone regeneration, socket preservation, immediate implant placement, and full-arch fixed prosthetics. Continuing education in guided surgery, digital workflow integration, and advanced bone grafting techniques keeps his protocols aligned with the latest published evidence.
Why Choose a Specialist?
Dr. Ostovar's credentials are verifiable. His ICOI Fellowship is listed in the organization's public directory. His implant success rate is calculated from clinical and radiographic follow-up data maintained in the practice management system. His continuing education hours exceed Oregon's mandatory requirements by a significant margin. Referring dentists across Washington County and the Portland metro area send their most complex implant and surgical cases to ADSC because they have seen the results in their own patients.
