Kind Words from Our Dental Patients
I have been terrified of the dentist for YEARS… I mean for about 15 years due to a traumatic experience as a kid. I would constantly cancel and reschedule my appointments because I just couldn’t get myself to go. I’ve tried several different offices but they just do not compare to this one! I enjoy going to the dentist now. They remember my triggers and do everything to make me comfortable. They’re also very personable! They remember the little things about you. I will never go anywhere else! I highly recommend.
Amy Snow
Dr. Costa is second to none. I challenge you to find a more caring human being who has mastered their craft and delivers care in a more complete, kind and caring manner.
J Gerbode-Grant
I highly commend Cynthia of the office staff. She is conversant in what insurance covers (or not). This helps me plan my next avenues of treatment -- and I'm in the category that needs treatment for wear and tear. The staff here is excellent and Dr. Costa is direct and to the point.

What level of education is required to be a dentist?

Then, they need to undergo 3+ years of in-classroom and hands-on training to earn their Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or Doctor of Dental Sciences (DDS) degree. At this point, they’ve completed roughly 7 years of college, but their training isn’t over yet. To maintain their license, they must pursue continuing education each year.
As for Dr. Costa, his journey to becoming the exceptional dentist he is today began at the Harvard University School of Dental Medicine, which is where he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree. Since then, he has become a Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD), undergone extensive training at the Spear Education Center, and been inducted as a Fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy.
