Dr. Evert Burger is a passionate and highly experienced dental practitioner who has dedicated nearly two decades to enhancing the oral health and overall wellbeing of his patients. He graduated with a BChD from the University of Stellenbosch and later pursued advanced training in implant dentistry, earning a Diploma in Oral Implantology from the University of Pretoria. His clinical expertise spans general dentistry, aesthetic restorations, implantology, and dental sleep medicine.
For 17 years, Dr. Burger owned and operated a thriving dental practice in the coastal town of Jeffreys Bay, where he became well known not only for his clinical skill but also for his warm, approachable manner. In 2023, he made the move to Stellenbosch, joining forces with Dr. Brand at Dorp Street Dental—a partnership grounded in shared values, innovation, and patient-centered care.
Dr. Burger has a keen interest in aesthetic and implant dentistry, particularly in the use of modern digital tools and biomimetic principles to restore teeth in a way that is functional, durable, and visually harmonious. His work blends science and artistry, aiming to recreate the natural beauty and biomechanics of healthy teeth. He believes that dentistry should be as minimally invasive as possible, preserving what’s healthy and working with the body’s natural structures to achieve optimal results.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Burger is actively involved in education and thought leadership within the dental field. He is a founding member and lecturer at the South African Dental Sleep Medicine Association (SADSMA), where he helps train fellow professionals in the management of sleep-related breathing disorders. He also lectures at the Restorative and Aesthetic Academy, sharing his knowledge on modern restorative techniques and aesthetic treatments.
Dr. Burger’s interest in dental sleep medicine reflects his holistic view of health. He is particularly committed to helping patients address snoring and obstructive sleep apnea through customized, non-invasive solutions—improving not only sleep quality but overall vitality.
When he’s not in the dental chair or lecture hall, Evert can usually be found outdoors. He is an enthusiastic trail runner, surfer, and surfski paddler who draws energy and clarity from nature. This connection to the natural world deeply influences his approach to life and work. Patients appreciate his calm, grounded presence and the genuine care he brings to every interaction.
Dr. Burger’s philosophy is simple: dentistry should be about more than just fixing teeth—it should support a person’s whole health, confidence, and quality of life for the long term.
