Dr. Marcia Mbadu
D.M.D, MS
Dr. Marcia Mbadu graduated dental school from the University of Kinshasa in 2011 and started her career as a general dentist in private practice where she developed her passion for Periodontics. She was offered the opportunity to relocate to the United States, where she decided to pursue her interests in periodontics and research. She completed a one-year internship in periodontics, then worked 2 years as a research fellow where she conducted multiple projects on implants at the University of Florida-Gainesville; studying the effects that medications can have with implant success/failure. Before moving to Lubbock, Dr. Mbadu practiced as a periodontist in the Texarkana/Longview area where she specialized in periodontics and dental implants.
To better strengthen her clinical skills, she also completed 3 years of residency and earned a Degree of Masters in Dental Sciences with a concentration in periodontics. During her time as a dental student, and in specialty training, she was involved in giving back to her community by performing volunteer work in dentistry. She also presented literature at the American Academy of Periodontology meetings and published scientific papers in the Journal of Periodontology.
As a specialist in periodontics and dental implants, Dr. Mbadu is highly knowledgeable and qualified to providing her patients with the most comprehensive care that will not only restore oral health, but also improve the lifestyle by restoring a healthy smile. With her compassion to patients, (especially those with dental anxiety) along with her extensive trainings, Dr. Mbadu is also prepared to providing moderate conscious sedation to improve her patients experience and make sure that they are both relaxed and comfortable during the procedure. With the hospitality that she inherited from her cultural background, Dr. Mbadu takes her time to better connect with both patients and referring doctors, making sure that they feel welcome and find joy in services provided to them.
In her spare time, Dr. Mbadu enjoys cooking, reading, listening to music, playing with her son Alexander, and spending time with friends and family.
