After 37 years at his Buffalo Road location, oral and maxillofacial surgeon Lee Pollan, D.M.D., M.S., is changing locations of his practice to join the University of Rochester Faculty Practice full-time.
“I am transitioning into the University of Rochester for full-time academic practice and teaching and supervising the oral and maxillofacial surgery residents,” Pollan said. “I have always been passionate about educating residents and this move allows me to do it full time.”
Not only did Pollan and his staff become a part of the Chili community, but in the lives of many families, as well. He has treated hundreds of area adults for various facial or jaw issues, such as reconstructive surgery, dental implants or obstructive sleep apnea. Many of Pollan’s patients married, and he then treated their children and other relatives to remove wisdom teeth and provide other specialized care.
“In many ways, the Chili community feels like an extension of my own family,” Pollan added, “and I look forward to serving them at our new location.”
Pollan, of Pittsford, is an associate professor of dentistry at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry and served as program director and interim chair of the Oral and Maxillofacial Division since 1980. His special areas of interest include trauma care, temporomandibular joint, dentoalveolar surgery, dental implants and reconstructive surgery.
For now, Pollan will continue to see patients at Strong Memorial Hospital, and later move to join the rest of the Faculty Practice at Clinton Crossings. Patients can call 275-5553.
Pollan is past president of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, and serves on the board of directors of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Foundation.
After earning his dental degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine in 1971, Pollan completed his oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at Georgetown University Medical Center. He earned his master’s of science from Georgetown the same year. He is a diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and is a fellow in the American and International College of Dentists.
The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department is part of the University of Rochester Medical Center’s Eastman Institute for Oral Health, a world leader in research and post-doctoral dental education.
