Meet Dr. Buzza
Dr. Buzza has been changing lives and perfecting smiles for his patients since 1983. Dr. Buzza enjoys all aspects of dental care and excels in creating incredible smiles, often while his patients are lightly sedated using sleep dentistry. A true dental care pioneer, Dr. Buzza brought sleep dentistry to Santa Rosa in 1997 and is sought after for his dental care practice's sedation and cosmetic dentistry expertise by dental colleagues. Many of his dental care patients travel hours to benefit from the considerate, comprehensive dental care he and his team provide. Dr. Buzza has been a dental instructor on cosmetic dentistry at the Pacific Aesthetic Continuum, a unique program teaching advanced cosmetic and reconstructive dental techniques and helping dentists enrich patients' lives and exceed their expectations with only the finest dental care. When Dr. Buzza is not working in his Santa Rosa dental office he enjoys skiing and hiking with his wife Martha, and his children Meg & Jake. Cycling is one of his passions as well as 35 years of aviation
