Microscope Enhanced Dentistry in Boca Raton<\/h2>\n

You may have seen another dentist wearing those special glasses that look something like small binoculars. Those do provide some magnification, but nothing like that of a microscope. Each one of Dr. Cuomo\u2019s exam rooms is equipped with a microscope. Therefore, he can diagnose a problem sooner and treat with greater precision. For example, when it comes to detecting tooth decay, the microscope allows Boca Raton dentist Dr. Cuomo to find the absolute smallest cavity. At this early stage of development, a cavity can be quickly and easily repaired with a tooth-colored filling, helping you avoid the harmful consequences of advanced decay.<\/p>\n

Education and Encouragement<\/h2>\n

After graduating with a BA degree in Chemistry from Florida Atlantic University, Dr. Cuomo decided to marry medicine with art and become a dentist. He graduated from Northwestern University Dental School in 1984 and has been practicing in South Florida since then. In 2002, he created a dental microscope system to use in his office and that has been placed in other dental offices and labs.<\/p>\n

As the executive director of the Pre-Dental Mentorship Program at Florida Atlantic University, Dr. Cuomo created and teaches a 10-week course that allows students to engage in an interactive dental experience before making the decision to pursue a career in dentistry. In this way, he is able to guide pre-dental students and give back to his alma mater. For his dedication, Dr. Cuomo received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Florida Atlantic University in 2012.<\/p>\n
