Meet Dr. Benjamin Scherr (“Dr. Ben”)

Dr. Benjamin ScherrDr. Ben is known for his caring nature and light-hearted tone, which make even the most nervous patients comfortable. His love for dentistry started early. In elementary school he broke his front tooth ice skating; what could have been a traumatic experience turned out to be a great one. The care and treatment he received from his childhood dentist was so positive, he immediately knew that he wanted to become a dentist someday and give that same experience to others.

Today he has achieved that goal. Dr. Ben helps his patients in all areas of dentistry: from emergencies to prevention… from crowns and dentures to more complex forms of restorative care – all with a positive demeanor and kind nature. Dr. Ben is passionate about providing exceptional care to his patients and ensuring they have the same positive experience that sparked his love of dentistry many years ago.

While practicing in Washington, DC, Dr. Ben furthered his education with classes from the prestigious Spear Education Institute.
