Boston, Massachusetts

Practice Philosophy

Conservative first

The best dentistry preserves tooth structure. Every treatment plan begins with the least invasive option that will reliably solve the problem.

Patients as partners

An informed patient makes better decisions than any dentist can make for them. Explaining the why behind every recommendation is not optional — it's the standard of care.

Evidence-based

Recommendations follow the current best evidence, not habit or marketing. Continuing education — over 200 hours beyond licensure requirements — keeps practice current.
