A vision founded on Passion
How it All Started
Owner and Chief Executive Officer of Passion Dental Services, Dr. Patrick Assioun, opened his first orthodontic practice in 2002 following completion of his orthodontic residency at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine.
​
While running his first practice, Dr. Patrick Assioun quickly realized that to build a successful clinic, he not only needed to provide quality clinical care to his patients but also needed to master the administrative responsibilities as well. And, as his practice grew, it soon became apparent that the ever-expanding administrative burden was preventing him from focusing on what most clinicians really loved, which was the clinical side of dentistry.
​
And so his vision came to life - building a dental organization where doctors could focus on what they were passionate about, specifically caring for patients, while alleviating their administrative burden and therefore improving the work-life balance.

Since 2002,
Passion Dental has expanded
Since 2002, Passion Dental has expanded from stand alone specialty offices to a wide array of multi-specialty practices, providing patients with a broad spectrum of dental services under one roof including general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, orthodontics and endodontics.
Currently, Passion Dental operates dental practices across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Upstate New York.
