Advanced Endodontics
Peter S. Chen, DMD, MMSc
ABOUT THE DOCTOR
Dr. Peter Chen, DMD, MMSc, founder of Advanced Endodontics, moved to the United States from Taiwan at the age of nine. Growing up in America, his parents were very invested in their family’s dental maintenance, and that sparked Dr. Chen’s interest in the dental field.
EDUCATION/MEMBERSHIPS
Dr. Chen always liked working with his hands and had many opportunities to shadow at his local dentist’s office throughout high school. After high school, he received a full scholarship at Boston University and was fortunate to matriculate at Tufts Dental School in 2001. After this, he headed straight to Harvard Dental School for his endodontic residency. Dr. Chen graduated in 2004 and has been teaching at Harvard Dental School for the past 19 years. He is a member of the American Association of Endodontics and the American Dental Association.
Dr. Chen started his own practice with the goal of being the best patient-serving specialist office in a 50-mile radius. Advanced Endodontics started out in 2009 with one chair in an oral surgeon’s office in Clermont, FL., but today has six locations in Central Florida. Dr. Chen’s dedication to excellence is fueled by his desire to solve problems and design new ways to execute solutions for his patients. Staying up to speed with advancements in pain control and endodontic technologies enables him to raise the bar, save natural teeth, and provide stress-free root canals to his patients
PERSONAL
When Dr. Chen is not working, he enjoys spending time with his lovely wife and their adorable children. He also likes to spend his free time singing karaoke, practicing archery, and attending car shows. Additionally, he volunteers with Feeding Children Everywhere, The Ronald McDonald House, and provides charity dental work to underserved communities multiple times each year.
