Lynne Addiego, D.M.D.

Making you comfortable before, during and after treatment sets Accent Orthodontics and Family Dentistry apart from all the rest.  Compassionate dental is what you can expect from us each and every visit. “We will always treat you respectively, and will be responsive to your needs”, says Dr. Lynne Addiego.  “With modern dentistry and technology there really is no reason to be afraid or uncomfortable.  You can have the smile you always wanted, with little to no stress.”  Dr. Addiego says “We will do everything possible to make your visit as comfortable as possible from our complimentary Bistro area and WiFi Internet access, to a warm blanket or pillow during treatment, your comfort is important to us.” Her kind demeanor and ability to make even the most frightened person feel at ease gives Dr. Addiego great pride.  “It even is not uncommon for patients to fall asleep in my chair”, says Dr. Addiego.            

Dr. Addiego completed her undergraduate education at Georgetown University where she graduated with honors, and was inducted into Sigma Theta Tau, an international nursing honor society.  Dr. Addiego graduated from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 1991, where she received the clinical excellence award.  After graduation she completed a one-year general practice residency at Cornell University Hospital, then went to cater to the dental needs of nursing home residents on the North Shore of Boston.  Prior to settling in Central Vermont she was an associate in a private practice in Allentown Pennsylvania.  Dr. Addiego has completed numerous hours of continuing education in dental advancements pertaining to dental implants, periodontal (gum) therapy and cosmetic dentistry.  In our practice we are always searching for ways to improve the patient experience.  We use cutting edge technology to educate our patients, reduce their exposure to ionizing radiation, and provide the most advanced treatment options and materials available today.

Dr. Addiego’s nursing background contributes to her holistic approach to dentistry. “Your total health is affected if the condition of your teeth and gums are compromised”, says Dr. Addiego. “In planning your care I consider the whole person and your individual needs, and involve you in the care planning process to make sure you receive the most optimal care for you.”

Dr. Addiego’s compassion extends beyond the dental chair, In June of 1996 she received a prestigious first responder award from the Newport ambulance squad, the second one ever awarded for that lucky day when she and a fellow hygienist saved a mans life with CPR. 

Dr. Addiego’s outside interests include reading, hiking, sewing, baking and spending time with her family.
