Meet the Team

We’re a family-run office that treats all of our patients like they’re part of our extended family.

 

Dr. Carlin Weaver

Dr. Carlin Weaver is one of the select few board-certified orthodontists in the area. She grew up in Swampscott and attended Tufts for both dental school and orthodontic residency, where she graduated at the top of her dental school class and was president of her residency class. She received the prestigious “Ten Under Ten” award by the Massachusetts Dental Society and has been featured in Boston Magazine as a “Top Dentist” for seven consecutive years. Dr. Weaver has completed additional training in orthodontics for sleep-disordered breathing and sleep apnea - she is passionate about helping people breathe! She loves technology and the convenience it offers her patients - she is a Platinum Plus Invisalign provider, offers Dental Monitoring to allow more flexibility for her patients, and uses custom, clear 3D printed Lightforce braces. She loves her family, working out, studying orthodontics, and baking!

Dr. buck weaver

Dr. Buck Weaver attended Emory Dental School and practiced as a dentist in the U.S. Navy before studying orthodontics at Boston University. He founded Weaver Orthodontics and was the captain of this ship for 45 years - and now is retired and living his best life! He lives in Swampscott for half the year and Key West for the other half, and you’ll never see him without his beloved dog, Bentley (and probably his wife, Casey). He enjoys cheering for his beloved Boston sports teams, scuba diving, and playing with his grandson. He is known all around town for being a kind, gentle soul - and Dr. Carlin will never tire of hearing “Your dad is sooo nice!”.
