Dr. Gabr — Bristol's Preferred Dentist

CommitTed to serving the Bristol Community

My passion for dentistry started at the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry, where I graduated at the top of my class with honors and was inducted into the prestigious OKU National Dental Honor Society. I then completed an intensive General Practice Residency at Harvard School of Dental Medicine, taking on leadership roles, helping launch outreach clinics for underserved communities, and training under world-renowned experts.


Driven by a lifelong pursuit of excellence and the latest advancements, I specialize in dental implants, full smile reconstructions, and advanced laser gum therapies—like the minimally invasive PerioLase® LANAP® protocol for treating gum disease without cutting or stitches.


Patients often share how we’ve transformed their smiles and confidence:

  • “After years of avoiding dentists, I needed a front tooth implant. Dr. Gabr and his team restored my trust and gave me a natural, beautiful smile—best experience ever!”
  • “I was nervous about implants after hearing horror stories, but Dr. Gabr made it painless and perfect. It’s a gift!”
  • “Dr. Gabr is incredibly skilled and caring— he has surrounded himself with a team of passionate and caring individuals. His team members are always so friendly and welcoming!”


When I’m not creating healthy, beautiful smiles, you’ll find me running trails, experimenting in the kitchen, cycling, or traveling with my wonderful wife and our four energetic kids in West Simsbury. I can’t wait to meet you!
