What Makes Maine Dentistry Different?
Choosing a dentist is personal. You want exceptional clinical care, but you also want to feel comfortable, heard, and confident in the people caring for you.
At Maine Dentistry, we’ve built our practices around both. Read about who we are.
Dentistry Never Stops Evolving. Neither Do We.
Our doctors believe continuing education is an essential part of providing thoughtful, modern dental care.
Dr. Benjamin Lawlor has pursued extensive advanced education, including training in cosmetic dentistry and completion of the LVI curriculum.
That additional education helps inform an approach that considers not only dental health, but also function, comfort, and the appearance of your smile.
Dr. Lawlor is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) and holds a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry.
More of the Care You Need. Right Here.
From preventive and restorative dentistry to cosmetic care, Invisalign®, dental implants, full-mouth rehabilitation, and advanced treatment options, our goal is to provide more of the care patients need within Maine Dentistry.
That can mean better continuity, greater convenience, and a team that understands the bigger picture of your dental health.
A Thoughtful Approach to Your Smile.
Cosmetic dentistry is about more than making teeth look different. It requires thoughtful planning around proportion, function, health, and the individual person behind the smile.
Dr. Lawlor has pursued advanced education in cosmetic dentistry, giving patients access to an approach that considers both the health and appearance of their smile.
Whether someone is considering subtle improvements or a more comprehensive transformation, treatment begins with understanding their goals.
Technology With a Purpose.
We invest in modern dental technology because of what it can do for our patients — helping us plan treatment, communicate options, and provide sophisticated care more efficiently and comfortably.
Technology should never replace the human side of dentistry. It should make it better.
Comfort Without Judgment.
If you’ve been away from the dentist, you’re welcome here.
We’re not interested in making you feel bad about the past. We want to understand where you are today, what matters to you, and how we can help you move forward.
No lectures. No judgment. Just thoughtful care and a team that’s here to help.
One Philosophy of Care.
With offices in Auburn, Gray, and Portland, Maine Dentistry provides convenient access to comprehensive dental care while maintaining the personal experience patients expect from a local practice.

Great Dentistry Starts With Great People.
Our doctors, hygienists, dental assistants, administrative team, and patient care professionals work together to make every interaction feel welcoming and every treatment plan feel understood.
We’re proud of the knowledge and experience within our team — and equally proud of the way our people care for the people who walk through our doors.
Dentistry Built Around You.
Ultimately, what makes Maine Dentistry different isn’t one piece of technology, one treatment, or one credential.
It’s the combination of advanced care, thoughtful communication, modern dentistry, and people who genuinely care about your experience.
