Cynthia Cadoret

Experienced and highly skilled public health professional with over three decades of expertise in dental education, clinical practice, research, and administration. Holding a Master of Public Health with a concentration in Epidemiology, I have a proven track record of leading dental education programs, mentoring students, and promoting culturally competent care. My career spans roles as Director of Dental Education Programs at Mount Wachusett Community College, Clinical Instructor at Boston University, and Compliance Manager for a major research center, demonstrating my ability to manage complex academic and research environments. I have contributed significantly to advancing oral health through research, publications, and service on professional boards and committees, including the American Public Health Association and the Commission on Dental Accreditation. Certified as a Registered Dental Hygienist and Dental Assistant, I bring a deep commitment to reducing health disparities and improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practices and innovative educational strategies.
