Meet Dr. Abigail Scanlan
Your dentist should understand more than your teeth. Dr. Abigail Scanlan takes time to hear what brought you in, explain what she sees, and talk through your options before you decide how to move forward.
Her approach centers on prevention and preserving healthy teeth whenever practical. As a dentist and mother of four, she values the trust that comes with caring for a family through many stages of life.
