Timothy Kunkle

A board-certified oral surgeon, Timothy Kunkle handles conditions that general dentists often refer out. From dental implants to wisdom tooth removal, cleft lip and palate repair to bone grafting, he covers specialized procedures that fall outside routine checkups. Complex extractions required after orthodontic treatment also fall under his scope. Patients needing corrective jaw surgery or treatment for oral pathology will find services tailored to their situation. The practice provides predictable outcomes for both surgical and non-surgical needs.

His office sits at 5550 Friendship Blvd in Chevy Chase, MD 20815, where the professional setting focuses on precision rather than frills. Patients arrive knowing they’re seeing a specialist who has completed additional training beyond dental school. Many who need sedation dentistry for longer procedures benefit from that extra expertise. Trauma-related injuries to the face and jaw receive comprehensive initial evaluation there as well. Shared decision-making ensures each person understands their options before any intervention.
