I feel truly blessed to be a member of this incredibly fulfilling profession, caring for my patients along with my talented team for many years. I have thrived on the meaningful and memorable relationships Ive developed with my patients and their families, and I thank you for allowing me the privilege of sharing in your lives. As your orthodontist, I feel great satisfaction by creating beautiful smiles and seeing the increase in self-confidence that this inspires. Its so rewarding to have this impact, changing my patients lives in such a positive way, one smile at a time.

I graduated in 1982 from the University of Maine with high distinction, and was elected to the Phi Kappa Phi National Honor Society. I am proud to have received my dental education at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. I graduated cum laude from Tufts in 1986, and was elected to the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honor Society (inducts only the top 10% of graduating dentists). I was fortunate to then pursue my specialty training in orthodontics at Tufts, where I completed my orthodontic residency in 1988.

Like all health care professions, orthodontics is continually innovating and evolving. I firmly believe in the importance of staying current with cutting-edge techniques and technology through continual professional development. By attending many regional and national orthodontic and dental courses every year, I continue to learn about changes in orthodontic care. This enables me to offer my patients the latest orthodontic approaches, maximizing their comfort while most efficiently creating ideal smiles, with excellent function and beautiful esthetics. I am proud to be a Board Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics. I am currently a member of the American Dental Association, American Association of Orthodontists, Massachusetts Dental Society, New Hampshire Dental Society, and Northeast Society of Orthodontists, and the Greater Nashua Dental Society.

Originally from Dunstable, MA, I attended Groton-Dunstable High School, and it has been a privilege to serve the community in which I grew up. Having lived in Nashua before moving back to Groton, I have loved this region, appreciating both the natural beauty of the area as well as the local spirit of community. I am grateful to have established my orthodontic practices and raised my family in this special place. I enjoy being engaged in my local community, and am proud to have developed state-of-the-art orthodontic practices based on family values in these New England communities.

When I am not caring for you, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Lea, and our yellow lab Sunny. We love spending time with our four children and our expanding family as often as we can. A few of my passions include playing golf, basketball, boating, fishing, and skiing. If youre a former or current patient at Decoteau Orthodontics, thank you for trusting us with your care. And to our future patients, I look forward to having you join our orthodontic family.

I am thrilled to be serving the Nashua area and surrounding communities alongside Dr. Decoteau at Decoteau Orthodontics. As an Orthodontist, I am passionate about developing close relationships with my patients and their families and customizing treatment plans to address all smile needs. Providing only the highest quality of orthodontic care in a friendly, comfortable environment is the standard I set for all of my patients. It is my privilege and pleasure to be treating you and your families and I look forward to welcoming you into our practice!

I am a Board Certified specialist in Orthodontics, and completed my D.M.D degree and Orthodontic residency at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. At Tufts, I graduated in the top of my class and was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honors Society. While at Tufts, I was active in research and was a recipient of the Deans Research Scholarship each year. My research involved the study of severe tooth decay and its effect on pediatric growth and development patterns. My professional organizations and certifications include Diplomate status on the American Board of Orthodontics, as well as active membership in the American Association of Orthodontists, Massachusetts Dental Society, and Northeast Society of Orthodontists.

I truly love the New England culture and communities, having grown up in Winchester, MA and completing all of my education here as well. Cape Cod is my favorite place to be in the summer with my husband, Corey, and our extended families. We love to travel and stay active, all while spending time with our family and friends.

For the past two years my son has been seeing Dr. Decoteau for his orthodontic treatment. When he was first referred, I was concerned about how young he was to start treatment. Dr. Decoteau, however, did not rush him into anything and instead put him on watches for nine month periods at a time until he was developmentally ready to begin the process. We are almost through his treatment now and everything he has needed has been done very professionally with questions answered and every new step in the plan explained along the way. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and always greets their patients with a smile. My daughter is now also a patient. Both the children enjoy Dr. Decoteau and now Dr. Ferrick as well. The new Nashua office is convenient for our family and they are great about scheduling to meet our needs now that we have recently moved further north in New Hampshire. I highly recommend their office.
