WHY HE WAS NOMINATED:

Dr. McMahon has a legacy to live up to: His great-grandfather opened a dental practice in 1928. Four generations of dentistry later, Dr. McMahon and his partner in practice — his father, John F. McMahon — use the latest in digital technology. That includes high-end digital-impression software and advanced 3D X-ray technology — a fully digital workflow that offers a higher level of detail and accuracy. Dr. McMahon’s commitment to this new wave of dentistry drives his passion to reshape his patients’ experience and to push the delivery of innovation in dentistry.

SOMETHING PEOPLE DON’T KNOW:

Dr. McMahon received a “socializes too much” remark on every report card from kindergarten through eighth grade.
