We had a great visit from Dave at NDX Lab today! He stopped by our office to share an exciting promotion and walked our team through a truly fascinating case from his lab—always inspiring to see the level of innovation and detail behind the scenes.

Not only did we enjoy the presentation, but Dave also made sure we were well taken care of with lunch… and not just any lunch! He brought an incredible spread from Bonefish Grill—definitely a crowd favorite.

Dave, thank you for always going the extra mile and making our team feel so appreciated (and well-fed!). We’re already looking forward to your next visit 😊

MetroWest Orthodontics & Periodontics is proud to share the success of our recent MetroWest Seminar!

We were honored to host Dr. Peter Gianini from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As a respected professor of oral pathology and an experienced clinician in oral medicine, Dr. Gianini is an outstanding educator, researcher, and practitioner.

He delivered an excellent presentation on bone pathology, and we were thrilled to have a completely sold-out session with such strong engagement from attendees. It was a truly valuable learning experience for everyone involved.

The MetroWest Seminar is held annually as part of our commitment to keeping clinicians up to date on both soft tissue and hard tissue oral pathology topics.

We are already looking forward to our next oral pathology session planned for April 2027—stay tuned for more details as we announce the official date!

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We appreciate your continued support and look forward to seeing you at our next event!
