I first encountered Dr. Lior after having a horrible experience at another dentist near my new house. So I decided to go back to Restoration Dental in Brookhaven because I had had a great experience there in the past. And in walks Dr. Lior. He was friendly, easy on the eyes and very compassionate after hearing my harrowing experience. He said I didn\'t have a second cavity and fixed the first one the dentist had botched free of charge. Now I drive from East Point Georgia at the ass-crack of dawn to see him for all my dental needs. Why anyone opens at 7am is beyond me, but I\'m not a morning person.
We are excited to welcome Dr. Raphael Lior to Restoration Dental. Dr. Lior attended the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. Following his engineering degree, he worked in a 500-fortune aerospace company and led a team of engineers on commercial and military Turbine Jet Engine projects. During that time he was awarded six patents and multiple awards for excellence. But in the back of his mind, he had a dream to become a dentist.
“My best friend and roommate in college is a seasoned dentist. After a meaningful visit to his private practice, I witnessed a patient’s transformation that reminded me of my close friend back home who suffered trauma. Right then and there, I found my true calling. Being a dentist is a huge privilege. People place their trust in us to do the right thing and maintain their oral health. Contributing to the transformation of one’s quality of life and improving their self-esteem is why I chose this field.” Dr. Raphael Lior
