Our Practice
Welcome to Our Practice
To the dental office of Dr. Robert DeRegis. Located in a renovated farmhouse just minutes away from historic Lexington center and the Minuteman bike path, our office holds to old world values while providing the best dental care with the latest technology. Dr. DeRegis is proud to be the third dentist to head this family practice. Started in the mid 1950’s in the Victorian mansion across the street, the practice was moved to its present location in 1963. We have been happily serving Lexington and our neighboring towns for over 50 years! We are fortunate to have third generation families in our practice.
When you first enter the office you will find what is common to many of Lexington’s historic homes: warm colors, soft and comfortable furniture, and warm, friendly people. Most people do not enjoy going to the dentist. But what if during your visit you were made to feel comfortable, at home, and confident that you will be cared for as a family member?
