Tammy Perison, DDS
Dr. Perison

Dr. Tammy Perison’s goal is to provide quality, individualized care in a compassionate, supportive environment. She loves educating her patients and helping them become healthy, confident, and proud of their smile and dental health. Through all stages of their life, from childhood through adulthood, Dr. Perison works to cater patients’ treatment to their individual needs and personal goals.

“The best gift I could give a patient is to help them feel good about themselves. Knowledge is critical, but ultimately the way we care for our patients is what separates us from other offices.”

Dr. Perison earned her bachelor’s degree in anthropology at SUNY Buffalo, where she was on the Dean’s List throughout undergrad, was a member of the Golden Key National Honor Society, and graduated cum laude. She then graduated from the SUNY Buffalo School of Dental Medicine in 1996 at the top of her class.

In 1997, Dr. Perison completed a one-year residency program in Millard Fillmore Hospital in Buffalo, NY.

She is continuously taking CE courses and has earned multiple awards for continuing education. Our team is constantly striving to expand our knowledge and learn about advancing treatments, techniques, and technology to improve our patients’ health and care. The best investment Dr. Perison feels she can make is educating herself, her team, and her patients.
