Dr. Gerald Niznick [DMD/66, LLD (Hon)/02] is recognized as the originator of modern implant dentistry.
Born to immigrant parents, Niznick grew up in Fort Frances, Ontario, before moving to Winnipeg to attend high school, then the University of Manitoba, in the 1960s.
He set up his own dental practice soon after and by the late 80s, Niznick had developed four different implant designs.
His first, the Core-Vent Implant System, in less than a decade became the most widely used dental implant system in the world.
In 2018, Dr. Niznick and Mrs. Reesa Niznick made the largest gift in the College's history.
The Niznicks’ $7.5 million donation reflects the breadth of innovative teaching, research, and community outreach found in the College of Dentistry. Their generous act will enhance clinical training space, fund special initiatives that enrich our community’s health and wellbeing and create reliable endowed funding for the College.
In recognition of this transformative gift, it is a great honour the college bear the name Dr. Gerald Niznick College of Dentistry.
