Dr. Richard Zalkin arrives at each appointment focused on educating patients as well as providing preventive care. A graduate of Tufts University, Dr. Zalkin has tended teeth for more than three decades, performing diagnostic exams, disease screenings, and tightening or loosening of teeth to ensure that they stay in tune. During in-office whitening treatments, clients can lay back with a neck pillow, watch TV, listen to music, or just take a much needed nap. To stay abreast of the latest innovations, Dr. Zalkin regularly attends continuing-education classes that cover wide-ranging dental subjects.
