How We Create Healthy, Radiant Smiles
Gum Disease Treatment, Bone Grafts, Dental Implants, and More
Lanap
Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive alternative to traditional periodontal surgery that targets diseased tissue while preserving healthy tissue and promoting natural healing.
Dental Implants
If you are struggling with one missing tooth, you’re missing an entire arch, or you fall somewhere in between, we have a solution: dental implants. Our doctors have undergone extensive training in the field of implantology, so your smile is in the best hands here.
Bone Grafts/Sinus Lifts
Sometimes, patients aren’t candidates for dental implants at their initial visit. Fortunately, our team of experts offers bone grafts and sinus lifts, which help streamline your treatment plan.
Additional Periodontal Services
Whether you need a simple treatment or more intensive care, our team is unwavering in our commitment to giving you the positive, comfortable, and stress-free experience you deserve at our practice.

Dr. William Scott Lightfoot
Passionate about his craft, Dr. Lightfoot earned his Post-Doctoral Degree in Periodontics, a Bachelor of Science
Degree in Nutrition, a Master of Arts Degree in Exercise Physiology, and a Master of Science Degree in Oral
Biology. Not only that, but he is board-certified by the American Board of Periodontology, and he was an
Assistant Clinical Professor at the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine.
While all of these accomplishments and accolades are impressive, what really sets Dr. Lightfoot apart is his
commitment to his patients. He uses everything he has learned over the years, the highest quality products, and
cutting-edge dental technology to create gorgeous, healthy smiles that shine now and last for decades to come.
As for life outside of dentistry, Dr. Lightfoot loves spending time with his wife and their two sons. He also
enjoys reading Louise Penny mysteries and watching baseball!
Dr. Linda Park
The road to becoming the exceptional periodontist she is today began at the University of Arizona. Following
graduation, Dr. Park earned her dental degree at the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, completed an
Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at NYU Langone, and obtained her certificate in periodontology
and dental implant dentistry. If that wasn’t impressive enough, she has also continued to maintain active
memberships with several professional organizations, including the American Academy of Periodontology, so she
can stay abreast of the latest techniques and technologies.
When she isn’t helping patients smile or pursuing continuing education, Dr. Park loves spending time with her
husband, golfing, hiking, and teaching her two rescue cats new tricks!
Dr. Chrysi Boutari
Growing up, Dr. Boutari had an amazing dentist: her father! Throughout the years, she saw the positive impact
dentistry could have on a patient’s life. This ultimately inspired her to attend dental school in Athens,
Greece. Then, she completed additional training in periodontics and periodontal prostheses at the University of
Pennsylvania and the Advanced Standing DMD Program through Boston University. Today, Dr. Boutari has a simple,
but important, mission: to help her patients achieve the healthy, complete, and pain-free smiles that they
deserve.
The dedicated, committed, and passionate prosthodontist that she is, Dr. Boutari spends her time outside of our
office completing continuing education through the American Dental Association and the Massachusetts Dental
Society. She also makes sure to spend lots of time with her husband and their son – whether it’s swimming,
skiing, or traveling back home to Greece to enjoy the beautiful Mediterranean summers.
