Dr. Adam Birk has been practicing as a general dentist since 2014, and in 2017, he opened his own private practice, Birk Dental. He grew up in Waterloo, IL and lives in St. Louis with his wife, Karen, and three young boys. Dr. Birk enjoys attending Blues and Cardinals games and is an avid golfer. He also loves to visit friends and family in Lake of the Ozarks and Florida in his free time.
Dr. Birk attended Southern Illinois University Edwardsville for college and Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine for dental school. He graduated in 7 years (3 undergrad, 4 dental school) of higher education. Upon graduating, he has attended multiple continuing education courses, including the yearlong AAID Las Vegas Maxicourse that focused on implant placement and restoration.
Dr. Birk has current memberships in the following groups:
FAGD stands for Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, a designation that reflects Dr. Adam Birk’s commitment to advanced education well beyond dental school. For you and your family, that means receiving care from a dentist who continually invests in learning current techniques, treatment options, and best practices in dentistry.
Only about 6% of general dentists have earned Fellowship in the AGD. To receive the FAGD designation, a dentist must complete more than 500 hours of continuing education, including at least 350 hours of live coursework, and pass a comprehensive fellowship exam. It’s an added level of training that helps Dr. Birk bring greater knowledge, experience, and confidence to the dental care he provides every day.
At Birk Dental, we believe great dentistry starts with a great team. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll be welcomed by friendly faces who genuinely care about your comfort and well-being. Our team is experienced, compassionate, and committed to making your visit as smooth and stress-free as possible.

I have had many "dental woes," and so have been to a myriad of dentists. In my experience, I would rate Dr. Birk and his staff as the absolute tops in knowledge, skill and above all, kindness. Brittany adjusted my temporary crown perfectly in record time! I would like to add to my review: for obvious reasons (if you look at my dental x-rays:)) the dentist is the last place I want to be, but sometimes, the only way out of a situation is to go through. I very, very much appreciate the kindness and expertise of EVERYONE at Westport Dental.![]()

5 stars across the board. I needed to get some dental work done immediately (think really broken tooth) and I realized Birk Dental was a few doors down from my business. I spoke with Savannah who understood what was going on and got me in the same day (morning). Kelly went to work and assessed the situation before Dr. Birk came in and confirmed her findings. They collaborated and very clearly discussed with me the next steps, what to expect, and the expected outcome. It was painless and as relaxing as one could ever expect coming from a dental wimp. The treatment, costs, and estimates were transparent and professionally discussed. My former dentist retired and now I have a new dentist. I would highly recommend this practice.![]()
