Meet the Doctors

Meet Dr. Larry Puccini

Dr. Puccini, a graduate of Case Western Reserve University, School of Dentistry, Cleveland, Ohio, is a general dentist with a special interest in implant and cosmetic dentistry. He believes that everyone should value their teeth and smile because it just feels good and is just about the first impression that anyone can make every day.

Dr Puccini has many loves, from his wife Dr. Roberge and his daughter Brianna, to their 4 adorable Norwich terriers. They love to travel, hike, bike, dance and vacation together. Dr Puccini values the time that he spends practicing the profession he loves as well. "It all just fits into the balance – it's just who I am."

When asked why he became a dentist, Dr. Puccini offered that, as a child he loved to watch his dentist work. "I actually grabbed a mirror and watched so I could see exactly what the dentist was doing. Beyond my initial fascination with the trade, my parents lent tremendous support to me in my new interest as it continued to become a goal for my life."

Dr Puccini knows that the teeth are part of an entire chewing system that includes not only the teeth but the bite, joint, muscles, gums and bone. Dr. Puccini believes that an exam should look at all these components in more of a comprehensive fashion, to ensure that no opportunity to improve dental health is missed. "Our patients deserve to know this information, and we're accustomed to help them in that way."
In this way, a patient can assess what they should do with respect to their individual situation and have the best possible outcome.

Dr. Puccini has an eye for esthetics and a passion for creating beautiful smile transformations. Since he began practice in 1980, Dr. Puccini's patients have benefited from increased confidence that comes with a brilliant, healthy, smile. Armed with their increased self assurance and potential, his patients often experience professional advancement, renewed confidence and personal satisfaction.

Dr. Puccini has received extensive training from the Seattle Institute of Advanced Dental Education one of the most prestigious learning institutes for dentists. His numerous hours of continuing education place him among the elite class of dentists that perform exceptional aesthetic and restorative procedures.
