Dr. Brian Shaughnessy

I am a native of Boston and have dedicated my career to pediatric dentistry after completing the esteemed residency program at Harvard University in collaboration with Children’s Hospital Boston.

With a background as a physical therapist, I bring over 30 years of diverse healthcare experience to the practice. This extensive experience has shaped my philosophy on dental care, emphasizing the idea that prevention is the best strategy—I firmly believes that building strong teeth is far more advantageous than repairing damaged ones, and understand that the foundation of a lifelong healthy smile is laid at an early age.

I am committed to making every child's dental experience as positive and enjoyable as possible, starting from their very first visit. I strive to use my quick wit and genuine compassion to help ease the stress and anxiety that often accompany dental appointments for both patients and their caregivers.

As a board-certified pediatric dentist, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each infant, child, and adolescent that I treat, ensuring that personalized care remains at the forefront of his practice.

Outside of work, I also serve as the dental director for a healthcare non-profit organization in Honduras, where I provide vital dental services and education to underserved communities. In addition to my professional commitments, my wife Jordan and I have been fortunate to raise three remarkable daughters.
