Meet
Dr. Sidney Cradduck

DDS, MAGD, PA

Dr. Sidney Cradduck graduated cum laude from LeTourneau University in 1982 before going on to the University of Maryland Dental school. He graduated with his DDS degree in 1986 and then practiced as a public health dentist for four years. Dr. Cradduck established his private dental practice in Hagerstown in 1990.

You might be wondering what the "MAGO" in Dr. Cradduck's title stands for. It means Masters in the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD). The AGD is the professional organization for general dentists, and it is the only one exclusively dedicated to representing the interests and serving the needs of general dentists.

To achieve this Mastership Award in June 2012, Dr. Cradduck maintained current AGD membership for three continuous years, took 1,100 credits of approved Continuing Education, required to gain the AGD title, and passed a rigorous comprehensive exam. Dr. Cradduck says it was not easy-only 2% of dentists earn this distinction but it was worth it to offer his patients more up-to-date and leading-edge dental care.

Dr. Cradduck has taken more than 1800 hours of CE courses, many of them focused on cosmetic and restorative dentistry. These courses include a comprehensive series at Kais Center in Seattle, the Louisiana Cosmetic Continuum at Louisianna State University by Dr. Jimmy Eubank, completion of coursework at the Dawson Academy in St. Petersburg, Florida, and three weeks of training at the world renowned Pankey Institute.

In addition to the Academy of General Dentistry, Dr. Cradduck's other professional memberships include the American Dental Association (ADA) and the Christian Medical and Dental Society (CMOS).

Dr. Cradduck and his wife, Pamela, have eight children and now 16 grandchildren. Their family resides near Mercersburg, and they are involved in the community through church. Dr. Cradduck has spent several weeks on dental mission trips to Guatemala and Ecuador. Dr. Cradduck looks forward to getting to know you and your family!

Meet
Dr. Matthew Cradduck

DDS

Dr. Matthew Cradduck joined our practice in the summer of 2023, bringing with him a wealth of experience and a commitment to exceptional dental care. Born and raised in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, Dr. Cradduck is one of eight children in the Cradduck family. His upbringing kindled a love for outdoors, sports and spending time with friends and family from church.

During his time at Eastern University in Philadelphia, Dr. Cradduck was drawn to the field of dentistry, inspired by his father, Dr. Sid Cradduck's stories of impactful dental missions to Spanish-speaking countries in Central and South America and his love for health sciences. This powerful influence guided Dr. Cradduck towards a career dedicated to oral health.

Dr. Cradduck, accompanied by his wife Kara, pursued his dental education at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, where his father had also honed his skills. Here, he gained invaluable experience in handling complex health scenarios, performing extractions, and catering to Spanish-speaking populations. He also learned his craft in a wide spectrum of procedures that a General Dentist encounters on a regular basis.

Upon graduation, Dr. Cradduck was excited to move back to a more rural location, joining his father's practice. Dr. Cradduck has great pride in his father's practice and he is wholeheartedly dedicated to upholding and expanding upon the legacy that his father built from the ground up.

Dr. Cradduck's desire for continuing education is evident in his pursuit of advanced courses, with the aim of broadening the array of services offered at our practice. His return to the tristate area signifies a heartfelt desire to meet the escalating demand for exceptional dental care in our community.

We are excited to welcome Dr. Matthew Cradduck back to his roots and look forward to the invaluable contributions he will make to our practice and the community we serve. His unwavering commitment to excellence in dentistry is a testament to the exceptional care you can expect to receive under his capable hands.
