Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

Proud to be listed in the guide to America’s Top Dentists and America’s Registry of Outstanding Professionals, Dr. Norton attributes his success to his hard work and always continuing his education.

Outside of practicing dentistry, he enjoys playing tennis and golf.
