Dr. Naomi Goldman, DDS, owner of Levy Goldman Dentistry in Peabody, Massachusetts, has been named a 2026 Castle Connolly Top Dentist. This honor is bestowed upon only 10% of the nation's licensed dentists, based on peer nominations and a rigorous selection process by the Castle Connolly research team. Dr. Goldman's selection reflects her dedication to advanced, patient-centered dentistry that emphasizes conservative treatments and modern technology.
At Levy Goldman Dentistry, located just 15 miles north of Downtown Boston, Dr. Goldman has built a practice centered on an 'upscale, fresh approach to oral wellness and cosmetics.' Her philosophy is rooted in helping patients understand their options and choosing treatments that preserve healthy natural tooth structure whenever possible. 'Every smile is different, and cosmetic dentistry should never be a one-size-fits-all approach,' says Dr. Goldman. 'Sometimes a patient thinks they need veneers, when whitening, Invisalign, bonding, or another more conservative option may help them achieve their goals. Preserving natural tooth structure is extremely important to me, and we always look at the most conservative options first.'
Dr. Goldman's commitment to minimally invasive dentistry is evident in her advanced training in no-prep veneer techniques, including the Marshall Hanson Method, which incorporates facially driven smile design. No-prep veneers can, in appropriate cases, allow for a cosmetic transformation with little to no removal of natural tooth structure. Dr. Goldman evaluates each patient's smile individually to determine whether no-prep veneers, composite bonding, Invisalign, whitening, or another approach is most suitable. 'The goal isn't to give every patient the same smile,' she explains. 'The goal is to create something that looks natural, fits their face, and feels like them—while preserving as much of their natural tooth structure as possible.'
The practice incorporates advanced technology to detect issues early and provide comfortable, efficient care. Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) Airflow Cleanings use warm water, air, and fine powder to gently remove biofilm and stains, offering a comfortable alternative to traditional cleanings. Dr. Goldman also utilizes iTero digital oral health scans annually to monitor changes over time, allowing for early intervention. For eligible early-stage cavities, the practice offers Curodont, a non-invasive treatment that supports remineralization of early enamel lesions, potentially avoiding drilling or fillings. 'The earlier we find a problem, the more options we may have,' says Dr. Goldman. 'Prevention and early detection can make a tremendous difference in how conservatively we are able to treat a tooth.'
Levy Goldman Dentistry also features same-day restorative dentistry with in-office milling technology, allowing eligible patients to receive custom crowns in a single visit. Laser gum lifts are available to reshape the gumline without downtime. Additional services include Invisalign, composite veneers, cosmetic bonding, professional teeth whitening, and comprehensive examinations. Beyond clinical care, the practice offers a comfort menu and membership plans for patients without dental insurance, enhancing accessibility and patient experience.
Dr. Goldman's recognition as a Boston Magazine Top Dentist in 2025 and 2026 and as an Invisalign Platinum Provider further underscores her expertise. Castle Connolly Top Dentists are selected based on criteria including education, training, and disciplinary history, and dentists cannot pay to be selected. This honor highlights Dr. Goldman's leadership in advancing minimally invasive, patient-focused dentistry in the Boston area.
