State-of-THE-Art Dental Treatments
Frank J. Sapere, D.D.S.
Skill and compassion go hand in hand when providing exceptional patient care. As a dental professional, I stay up to date on the latest advancements in dentistry in order to provide the most current treatment options for my patients. As a doctor, I recognize that my patients are unique individuals who have placed a great deal of trust in me and my team. That is just one reason why I value each and every patient relationship.
Dr. Frank Sapere and his inviting staff members have created a special place for family and cosmetic dental care right here in Webster. It’s a unique place where the latest advanced dentistry combines with genuine friendliness and care.
Dr. Sapere has invested more than two decades in the study of advanced clinical dentistry, training in post-doctoral studies with some of the nation’s top dentists. This extensive focus on continuing education enables Dr. Sapere to provide many of today’s state-of-the-art techniques, including cosmetic smile makeovers, fixed and removable prosthetics, Invisalign orthodontics, endodontics, and even dental implants to replace missing teeth.
But best of all, Dr. Sapere combines this advanced clinical dentistry with personable, one-on-one care and communication that will make you feel right at home. You won’t get any snooty lectures here, just clear, understandable explanations, and the latest in advanced dentistry. It’s the best of both worlds, and it really is something to smile about!
Dr. Sapere is a native New Yorker and earned his doctorate from the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. He and his wife, Audrey (a dental hygienist), have been married 27 years and have four children.
