Western Massachusetts for over 30 years. Our founder Dr. AA Emirzian, a Harvard-trained dentist, started his dental practice in Springfield in 1942. Dr. AA Emirzian became known for his caring demeanor and as a dentist who truly listened to his patients. In 1982, Dr. AA Emirzian welcomed his daughter, Dr. Lisa Emirzian into his practice. Dr. Lisa Emirzian brought passion, energy and new techniques with her and blended them with her father’s caring chairside manner. In 1984 Dr. Vincent Mariano graduated from Tufts School of Dental Medicine’s Postgraduate Prosthodontics Program and joined EMA Dental. EMA Dental Prosthodontics became the first Prosthodontics specialty practice in Western Massachusetts. In its new home in East Longmeadow, the group practice concept was born with Dr. AA Emirzian and Dr. Lisa Emirzian leading the general practice and Dr. Mariano heading the new prosthodontic practice.
