JOSHUA E. BAUM, D.M.D., M.S.
DR. JOSHUA BAUM GRADUATED MAGNA CUM
LAUDE WITH A B.S. IN BIOLOGY FROM TUFTS UNIVERSITY before earning his D.M.D. from the UConn School of
Dental Medicine and his M.S. and Certificate in Orthodontics
from SUNY Buffalo. His extensive educational background,
coupled with his tremendous experience, expertise and gentle
manner, has resulted in his being recognized as an esteemed
member of the orthodontic community.
Board-certified, Dr. Baum recommends that children have
their first orthodontic visit at age 7. This proactive approach
makes it easier to treat many issues while the bones are still soft
and growing. The early correction of jaw growth can circumvent
the need to pull teeth and give patients a better self-image at an
earlier age. There is the additional advantage that children typically wear braces for a shorter period of time.
Dr. Baum recognizes that some patients prefer a more aesthetic and less noticeable approach to treatment and thus has
become one of the premier Invisalign doctors in Connecticut
for teenagers and adults. He was a pilot doctor for our area
when Invisalign Teen was in its research-and-development stage
and was the first official Invisalign Teen provider in the state.
He has also lectured on Invisalign to offer continuing-education
credits to others in the profession.
Dr. Baum’s patient-friendly office is outfitted with video
games and foosball tables in the reception area and has Game
Boys attached to every treatment chair. “I have so much fun at
work getting to know my patients and their families,” he says.
“I strive to make sure that they are not only getting a beautiful
and healthy result, but that they are also having a good time and
smiling during the experience.”
