W. SCOTT KIBLER, DMD
“Part of my profession is to teach my patients what they can do to keep their teeth for a lifetime. I want my patients to be at their happiest and healthiest! It is my goal to aid in the rehabilitation of teeth and educate patients to maintain their dental health for a lifetime.”
Education and Experience
Dr. Scott Kibler is a South Carolina native. Born in Charleston, his family relocated to Spartanburg when he was five years old. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Rhodes College in Memphis, TN. Dr. Kibler earned a full scholarship with the Navy at the Medical University of South Carolina, where he graduated in 2002.
Dr. Kibler has been in private practice since 2006 in Summerville. His interests in dentistry are ever growing as he spends many hours a year in continuing education courses to offer his patients the most current concepts in the field. He is a member of the prestigious Seattle Study Club, as well as the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry. Dr. Kibler routinely mentors MUSC dental students in his private practice.
A History of Service
After completing an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at Naval Air Station Jacksonville, FL, Dr. Kibler transferred to Roosevelt Roads Naval Station, Puerto Rico. The Kiblers then returned to Naval Air Station Pensacola, where Dr. Kibler was the staff dentist for the legendary Blue Angels.

Dr. Kibler received the prestigious Joint Commendation Medal and Expeditionary War on Terrorism Medal for his performance in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Dr. Kibler is a proud veteran of the US Navy.

MICHAEL J. SKOVIRA, DDS
“It is a privilege sharing my passion for Dentistry with my patients. I’ve found that when it comes to wellness, prevention is key. When problems of the teeth and jaws occur, it’s important to intervene early. Oftentimes dental problems can lead to difficulties chewing and smiling. The better care I am able to provide allows my patients to enjoy eating and smiling without worry!”
Education and Experience
Dentistry is unique in that it blends science, engineering, and art with the personal relationships of healthcare. With a background in engineering and a special interest in healthcare, Dr. Skovira decided to pursue a career in Dentistry after realizing how much of a direct impact good Dentistry can have on people’s lives. He studied Biology and Chemistry at The State University of New York College at Geneseo, where he graduated with honors. He attended Dental School close to home at the University of Buffalo School of Dental Medicine.
His commitment to education above and beyond the requirements necessary has translated to better patient care. Dr. Skovira has trained across the country to provide dental services to those requiring complex restorative and surgical intervention. Outside the office, he is an Adjunct Faculty and clinical instructor for the College of Dental Medicine at MUSC training dental students in oral surgery at various clinics around the area. He has been seeing patients and practicing since 2011.
Family and Community
Dr. Skovira is married to Emily, a Speech-Language Pathologist. They have three beautiful young children; Luke, Grady & Madelyn. Dr. Skovira and his wife relocated to the Lowcountry from Western New York after his training. They enjoy spending time as a family of 5, traveling when possible, boating, and getting together with family and friends.

A history of military service…
Dentists of our practice have a long history of service with the Navy. Dr. Roger Stalb originally founded the practice in 1977 after he retired from serving with the Navy as a dentist. In 1995, Dr. George Kredich took over the practice after retiring from the Navy as well. At that time, the practice was located down Trolley Road from our current office, where we relocated in 2002.
Dr. Scott Kibler joined the practice in 2006 after continuing the legacy of naval service as a dental officer. He then purchased the practice in 2007 and changed the name to Old Trolley Dental Associates. Dr. Kredich continued working part-time with the practice until 2015, when he retired. During that same year, Dr. Michael Skovira joined the practice full-time.
