Dentist
Dr. Madisen Newman, DDS
Dr. Newman practices general and restorative dentistry alongside Dr. Woolbert at the Fern Avenue office, Monday to Thursday. This entry is short by design — the only NPI record for a dentist of this name is registered in Connecticut, so it is not published as hers.

Scope of clinical practice
The treatments this practice concentrates on
These five are the practice's own stated clinical priorities, listed in the order it gave them. Both dentists are general dentists; this is where the weight of the caseload sits.
Dentures
Complete and partial dentures, restoring day-to-day function such as eating and speaking.
Porcelain veneers
Thin shells of ceramic placed over the natural tooth surface, matched to the translucency of enamel.
Crowns & bridges
Custom crowns and bridges for teeth that are missing, fractured, damaged or decayed.
Restorative dentistry
Repairing teeth damaged by decay or wear so the tooth keeps its strength, shape and appearance.

Equipment in clinical use
What the practice diagnoses and restores with
The four pieces of equipment the practice names as being in clinical use. Crowns are designed and milled on site, which is what makes a single-visit crown possible.
CBCT 3D imaging
Three-dimensional scans that show the jaw, nerves and bone in full, rather than a flat picture.
Same-day crowns (CEREC)
Diagnosis, design and milling in the practice's own operatory, finishing a crown in a single visit.
Clear aligners (SureSmile Clear)
A removable alternative to fixed braces, planned and reviewed in the practice.
Digital radiography
Images available to view immediately, at a fraction of the radiation dose of conventional film.

Continuing education and clinical protocol
Both blocks below are the practice's own words, reproduced verbatim from its About page. No specific course, association or certificate is named here, because the practice has not published one.
