Dr. Travis Buxton, DDS
Dr. Travis Buxton, DDS, was raised in Utah where he graduated from high school in 1996 and later married his high school sweetheart. He continued his education at Weber State University in Utah.

Dr. Buxton and his family fell in love with the Northeast while he was attending dental school in Halifax, Nova Scotia. They are a close family, and they love Maine for the outdoors, the people, and the lifestyle. In his spare time, Dr. Buxton enjoys spending time in the outdoors, physical fitness, and spending time with his wife and four young children.

When Sherri is not at work, she likes to spend time with family as well as quilting.
I have been a patient of Dr. McGarr's for many years. One of his very nervous patients, I might add. He and his staff always try to make me feel calmer, and it usually works!
I have seen Dr. Buxton on a few emergency situations, and he is also a great dentist and very efficient. I have recommended this office to friends and they have been very happy too!
