DR. LAWRENCE SHEER, A RECOGNIZED LEADER IN ENDODONTIC CARE, GOES TO WORK EVERY
DAY LOOKING FORWARD TO ACHIEVING THE SAME GOAL: SAVING THE TEETH OF HIS PATIENTS.
“MY OFFICE MOTTO IS ‘WE SAVE TEETH,’” HE SAYS.
Dr. Sheer’s focus is microsurgical dentistry. Beyond a comprehensive degree in dentistry,
the doctor completed additional training in endodontics through a specialized, accredited
residency. “Everything I do is inside the tooth, usually using a microscope to repair things
the naked eye can’t see,” Dr. Sheer explains. A strong believer in using a team approach,
the doctor feels very fortunate to work closely with a number of gifted general dentists,
specialists and personal physicians to coordinate efforts and ensure that good oral health is
part of the overall well-being of his patients.
By continuing to invest in his office, Dr. Sheer offers cutting-edge treatments and the latest
techniques in modern endodontic care. “If there is any way that I can increase the percentage
of success for my patients, I’m going to explore that technology,” he says. His practice
was the first in New Jersey to have installed a3-D cone beam scan machine and the first in
the state to use the GentleWave® procedure which employs multisonic sound wave energy
to remove debris from a tooth. “This minimally invasive procedure provides a more efficient
cleaning than previous conventional methods,” continues Dr. Sheer. “This delivers
the advantage of superior sterilization of canal space with removal of less tooth structure.”

Dr. Sheer received the prestigious Dr. George Feldman Memorial Award for Endodontic

where their tradition of clinical excellence continues.
Born and raised here in West Caldwell, both doctors continue to call
the community their home. “We are truly humbled to be honored by

Greg is well on his way to achieving Fellowship in the Academy of General
Dentistry (FAGD), which is achieved by only 5% of dentists across the
US, and both doctors hold dental laser certifications and have expertise in
same-day CEREC restoration procedures.
Their practice is meticulous about sterilization protocols, and has always
taken every precaution to ensure the safety of their patients and their caring,
professional staff. “There is just no substitute for experience, talent and
integrity, and our wonderful staff is simply top-drawer,” continues Dr. Al.
“From the simplest cleaning to the most modern dental fillings, we do our
best to educate our family of patients of all ages, and guide everyone to
achieve their best care.”
