Biography
Dr. Blackburn is a prosthodontist who finds it rewarding to help his patients smile confidently and eat comfortably through a range of prosthodontic treatments.
From Henderson, North Carolina, Dr. Blackburn pursued a career as a prosthodontist because of the life-changing physical and mental benefits it provided to others. He finds the ability to improve someone’s life by restoring their confidence and oral function incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. Dr. Blackburn approaches patient care with understanding and empathy so that others can feel calm and comfortable while receiving treatment.
After completing his residency, he spent time in general practice for a little over a year before joining Envision Dental Implant Center in October 2021. He was looking for a multi-specialty practice where he could collaborate with other patient-focused professionals, and is excited to work with such a knowledgeable and friendly team.
As an Eagle Scout, Dr. Blackburn enjoys participating in anything that can get him outside and active, such as running, fly fishing, and backpacking. He also enjoys playing guitar whenever he finds time.
