With all of this training Dr. Slesnick has always understood that the keys to excellent dental care are, treating people with respect, not hurting them and taking full responsibility for their clinical treatment. It’s his feeling that dental treatment can and must be comfortable. Unless the patient can approach dental care without the expectation of pain, ideal results can’t be attained. He’s learned that no treatment, including injection of local anesthetic needs to be uncomfortable and he tells his patients that he won’t allow them to feel pain.
Dr. Slesnick insists on treating his patients with the respect they deserve. He is committed to developing a great relationship with his patients and making sure they understand their conditions and treatment options.
He and his wife Cherie have four children. They recently moved to the Boston area to be near his daughter who is expecting her first child and his son who will be attending law school. |
