David Heering, DMD, is a board-certified periodontist specializing in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, the placement of implants, and oral surgery.

Dr. Heering earned his doctorate of dental medicine at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and completed his advanced specialty training in periodontics at Boston University. He is a member of the American Dental Association and the American Association of Periodontics.

Keeping pace with the latest advancements in periodontics is a high priority for Dr. Heering. He has completed numerous professional courses in periodontal care and implant technology and is certified to perform the Pinhole Surgical Technique—a minimally invasive procedure for correcting gum recession. He also uses the latest technology, such as Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography.

 While Dr. Heering brings over 25 years of periodontal experience and expertise to patients and referring dentists, he also brings something equally important: personalized attention and care.

“No one likes going for dental treatment. So we do everything we can to put patients at ease and help them feel relaxed and comfortable,” says Heering. “We listen to their concerns and needs, make them feel safe and at home, and treat them with understanding and respect.”
