Gum Disease Treatment, Dental Implants & More
Comprehensive and Compassionate Periodontal Care for Every Patient
Lanap
LANAP, or Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure, is a minimally invasive laser treatment for
periodontal disease that offers several advantages, including minimal post-operative discomfort and
a faster recovery than traditional gum surgeries.
Dental Implants
If you are struggling with tooth loss, you don’t have to accept low self-esteem and a limited
diet as your new normal. With our expertise, confidence, and technology, we can rebuild incomplete
smiles with dental implants that look and feel natural.
Bone Grafts/Sinus Lifts
When you partner with our team at Lightfoot Center for Laser Periodontics, you don’t have to
go far if you need a bone graft or sinus lift. We offer both at our office!
Additional Periodontal Services
We want you to have a smile that’s as healthy as it is beautiful, which is why we offer
aesthetic treatments as well, like Cosmetic Crown Lengthening.

Dr. William Scott Lightfoot
Raised in Ohio, it was only natural for Dr. Lightfoot to begin his studies at The Ohio State University. In addition to earning his Post-Doctoral Degree in Periodontics, he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nutrition and a Master of Science Degree in Oral Biology. If that wasn’t impressive enough, he is also board-certified by the American Board of Periodontology!
Now, Dr. Lightfoot uses everything he has learned throughout his career to ensure his patients have the calm, comfortable, and compassionate experience they deserve while maintaining, restoring, and enhancing their smiles. He was also an Assistant Clinical Professor at the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and lectures nationally on periodontal care and dental implants.
Dr. Linda Park
Dr. Park’s interest in dentistry began when she was in middle school. That initial curiosity and interest led to her studying at both the University of Arizona and the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. Once she started working as a general dentist, she developed a keen interest in implant dentistry, which motivated her to obtain her certificate in periodontology and dental implant dentistry as well.
In her free time, Dr. Park enjoys trying restaurants with her husband, hiking, golfing, and teaching her two rescue cats new tricks! She also pursues continuing education with professional organizations like the Massachusetts Dental Society and the American Academy of Periodontology, so she can stay abreast of the latest techniques and technologies.
Dr. Chrysi Boutari
Growing up, Dr. Boutari had a great dentist to look up to: her father! She saw both he and his team go to great lengths to make their patients feel comfortable and confident, which is something that continues to inspire her all of these years later.
The first step on Dr. Boutari’s journey to becoming one of our dedicated periodontists in Braintree was attending dental school in Athens, Greece. Then, she completed specialty training in periodontics and periodontal prostheses at the University of Pennsylvania and attended the Advanced Standing DMD Program through Boston University. Even with these impressive accomplishments under her belt, she continues to pursue advanced training with the American Dental Association and the Massachusetts Dental Society to ensure she can continue to provide her patients with the absolute best care.
