About Dr. Joseph J. Salusti, DMD

This practice, located in the heart of Watertown Square, was founded in 1949 by Dr. Joseph Salusti Sr. We are proud to have been serving Watertown and the greater Boston area for over 70 years!

My name is Dr. Joseph Salusti Jr. What I like most about being a sole practitioner is that it allows me to get to know every one of my patients individually.

The deep roots of our practice and my personal knowledge of each patient’s needs allows us to customize every patient’s dental care.

As a general dentist, I offer a wide variety of routine services. In addition, I am skilled in root canals, implant placement and restoration, difficult extractions and conscious sedation.

Originally from Lexington MA I attended Boston College for my undergraduate studies before attending Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. I graduated Tufts in 1982 and then joined this practice in Watertown.

I value continuing education and am a proud member of the American Dental Association and the Massachusetts Dental Society.

Many of my staff also have in depth knowledge of our patients’ needs, having worked in association with my father and myself for many years. Newer members of our staff soon learn the emphasis we place on developing relationships with our patients.

Please explore our website and call with any questions or to make an appointment with me for your first visit. I look forward to meeting you personally!
