Samuel I Barr

After many rewarding years of practicing dentistry in Oneida, it is with a mix of emotions that I am announcing my retirement from private dental practice. I am proud to have served this community since 1979 and feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with so many wonderful patients, many of whom I now call friends. As I turn 70 and reflect on my life and career, I have decided that it is time to explore new opportunities to teach and share my knowledge and passion for dentistry.

Introducing the Oneida Dental Group

I am thrilled to announce that my entire staff has been hired by the Oneida Dental Group, a highly respected dental practice in our community. The Oneida Dental Group is comprised of three talented dentists: Drs. Russel-Brien, Weires, and DeCastro. I have had the pleasure of getting to know each of them and can attest to their expertise, dedication, and commitment to providing the highest level of care to their patients. I am confident that my staff will be happy in their new home, and I believe my patients will be too.

Continuity of Care

Payments for any outstanding balances should still be sent to the 231 Broad St address that is on your statement. Our last day of operations will be April 14th. After that date, if you have any questions about your care or if you would like copies of your dental records, please contact the Oneida Dental Group at 315-363-4850. Their team of professionals will be more than happy to assist you.

A Lifetime of Dental Excellence

Over the years, I have had the privilege of providing a wide range of dental services to my patients, including:

• General Dentistry: Regular check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and extractions are the foundation of good oral health. I have always been committed to providing these essential services with the utmost care and attention to my patients' comfort and well-being.
• Implant Dentistry: Dental implants are an excellent option for patients who are missing one or more teeth. They provide a natural-looking and permanent solution that not only improves the appearance of a patient's smile but also enhances their ability to eat and speak with confidence. I am proud to have helped many patients restore their smiles and their confidence with dental implants.
• Cosmetic Dentistry: A beautiful smile can light up a room and boost a person's confidence. I have always enjoyed helping my patients achieve their best smiles through a variety of cosmetic dentistry services, including teeth whitening, veneers, and orthodontics.
• Emergency Dentistry: Accidents and unexpected dental issues can happen at any time. I have always been available to my patients for emergency dental care, providing prompt and effective treatment to alleviate pain and prevent further damage.

A Heartfelt Thank You

As I embark on this new chapter of my life, I want to express my deepest gratitude to all of my patients for their trust, loyalty, and friendship over the years. I am proud of the dental practice we have built together and will always cherish the memories and relationships that have been formed here. While I may be retiring from private practice, I am excited to continue to contribute to the dental community and look forward to the new opportunities that lie ahead.

Wishing you all the best,

Samuel Barr
