Watertown’s newest dental practice marked its official opening last week with a ribbon cutting outside its office at Arsenal Yards.
Arsenal Modern Dentistry moved to a location right on Arsenal Street, which has already proven to be a good location, said Dr. Brock Riedel, who runs the practice with his partner, Dr. Anthony Fallon.
“It’s a great location, from the flow of patients,” Riedel said. “Everybody seems to think it’s a great place, comfort-wise.”
Falone grew up in Waltham, and when he saw the Arsenal Yards location, he jumped at the chance. He liked the foot traffic and visibility of the office.
“People just came in now to make an appointment,” Falone said after the ribbon cutting.
Falone and Riedel worked together before starting the Watertown office. They also see patients at Waltham Modern Dentistry.
Arsenal Modern Dentistry opened about a month and a half ago, but has already built a following that reflects the Watertown community.
“It’s very diverse, regardless of ethnicity, culture, age, we see the whole population — basically everybody,” Riedel said.
The office works with patients of all ages, he added.
“We’re not necessarily a pediatric office, but we’re able to see kids,” Riedel said.
The dental practice has done a lot of outreach and networking, including joining the Watertown Business Coalition. The ribbon cutting was the first hosted by the WBC. On hand were members of the WBC leadership team, including Co-Presidents Doug Orifice and Bob Airasian, along with special guest, Rep. Steve Owens, who presented Arsenal Modern Dentistry with a proclamation from the Massachusetts House of Representatives.
