    As a general dentist I offer a wide variety of routine services. In addition I am skilled in difficult root canals, implant placement and restoration, difficult extractions and conscious sedation. We pride ourselves in having to refer very few cases to specialists. Originally from Lexington MA I attended Boston College for my undergraduate studies before attending Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. I graduated Tufts in 1982 and then joined this practice in Watertown.

What is wisdom teeth removal?

Wisdom teeth are the third molars, which usually come in between ages 17 and 25. They are often removed when they are impacted, partly erupted, decayed, or crowding other teeth. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out; x-rays help decide.

Wisdom teeth removal: specialist or general dentist?

General dentists remove many erupted wisdom teeth. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons typically remove impacted wisdom teeth, especially those near the jaw nerve, and offer IV sedation or general anesthesia.
