Dr. Twine is currently a member of the Arizona Dental Association (AzDA), and a board-eligible American Association of Endodontics. Board eligibility is conferred upon an educationally qualified endodontist whose application and credentials have the approval of the American Board of Endodontists.

A board eligible endodontist is in the process of achieving board certification and must complete it within a given timeframe; otherwise, they forfeit board eligibility status.

Dr. Twine has been treating patients at the Paradise Valley office since June of 2008 and he currently lives in Phoenix with his wife and two stepdaughters. Most Sundays in the fall, you will find them somewhere rooting on their favorite NFL team - The Pittsburgh Steelers.
