Dr. Corky Willhite

Dr. Willhite is known for his ability with direct resin. As a respected clinician he has accomplished amazing results even with the most complex cases, yet one of his most rewarding activities is to teach others how he does it. You'll find his sincerity and talent an inspiring combination to help you learn effectively.
Dr. Willhite has been in private practice since he graduated from LSU school of Dentistry in 1979. He quickly became interested in cosmetic dentistry and pursued hundreds of hours of continuing education. Many of these courses were sponsored by the A.D.A. and the A.G.D., organizations in which he still maintains membership. In 1990 he attended his first A.A.C.D. Annual Meeting and hasn't missed one since. He achieved Accreditation and, as his slide collection grew, was asked by his local colleagues to share his knowledge. One thing led to another, and he is flattered to have the opportunity to lecture across the country and internationally as well as publish articles on cosmetic dentistry. In the meantime, he has served in several positions of leadership in the AACD as well as two years as President of the Louisiana Chapter. Since 1995 he has served as an Examiner of Accreditation and in 1999 was elected to the first Board of Governors. In 1997, he achieved his Fellowship. In 1998, he was invited to join the faculty in the Department of Prosthodontics at LSU where he is an "Assistant Clinical Professor".

Dr. Willhite believes in giving back to the community and regularly donates dentistry to those in need. Over the years, his practice has evolved to provide almost exclusively cosmetic and restorative services. Corky lives in New Orleans with his wife and two "mostly enjoyable" teenagers.
