Meet Dr. Nahed A. Lakkis
Dr. Nahed A. Lakkis brings precision and compassion to his practice. Dedicated to restoring teeth through predictable and minimally invasive protocols, his meticulous nature has established him as an expert in both biomimetic and cosmetic dentistry.
His journey into dentistry began in his uncle's orthodontic office, where he spent hours observing patient care after his own appointments. This early exposure revealed the dynamic nature of dental practice and the profound impact practitioners can have in helping patients overcome barriers to oral health, inspiring his lifelong dedication to the field.
After graduating from Catholic Memorial High School in 2009, Dr. Lakkis completed his undergraduate studies at Boston College in 2013. He then earned his dental degree from Boston University Goldman School of Dental Medicine in 2017, graduating magna cum laude. His commitment to excellence led him to pursue advanced training through a clinical fellowship in hospital dentistry/general practice residency at Harvard University School of Dental Medicine in 2018. He then achieved his mastership in biomimetic restorative dentistry in 2022.
As a biomimetic dentist, Dr. Lakkis focuses on treatments that maintain and preserve natural teeth using materials that mimic their structure and function. This approach allows him to deliver restorations that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also more predictable and durable. His exceptional skills have earned him recognition as Best of Boston in General Dentistry for three consecutive years from 2021 to 2023.
Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Lakkis is passionate about giving back to underserved communities. In 2017, he provided free dental and medical services in Guatemala through LIGA International. In 2019, he completed 30 hours of complex implant placement during a charity mission to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Dr. Lakkis maintains active membership in several professional organizations, including the Academy of General Dentistry, Massachusetts Dental Society, American Dental Association, and The BAARD Institute (Biomimetic and Advanced Adhesive Restoration Dentistry).
A West Roxbury native, Dr. Lakkis shares his life with his wife Sarah Together they enjoy hiking, beach outings, and exploring new restaurants.
