Helaine Smith — Boston’s Best Cosmetic Dentist | Dr. John Favaloro

Since graduating from dental school in 1991, Dr. Helaine Smith has been driven to provide the very best in dental care and advanced cosmetic dentistry procedures.

Not satisfied with providing general dentistry, Dr. Smith sought advanced dental training at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies. She is now one of 2% of dentists in the United States who provides full mouth reconstruction.

In addition, Dr. Smith is a Fellow in the Academy of General Dentistry — an award granted to dentists who have more than 500 practice hours and have passed a comprehensive 400-question examination.

In partnership with Gary Genard, Ph.D., a leading speech coach for dentists, Dr. Smith helps dentists achieve practice management excellence. You can learn more about this partnership by visiting their Dental Communications Group Website.

Her hard work and dedication to providing outstanding dental care resulted in Dr. Smith being named “First Runner Up” for the annual Cosmetic Practice of the Year Award competition. And, she’s been twice voted Boston’s Best Dentist.

In 2003, Dr. Smith was honored by Boston’s radio station, magic 106.7, as an “Exceptional Woman” a prestigious award given to women in the Boston area who have “overcome obstacles to achieve greatness in their lives.”

Dr. Smith combines her drive for success with a desire to give back to the community. An active member of Operation Smile and Cape CARES, two groups that send volunteer dentists and physicians all over the world, Dr. Smith has been part of eleven volunteer missions to third world countries. She provides care to children with cleft lip and palate as well as with people from remote mountain villages in numerous Latin American countries.
