Your Family Dentist at Innova Smiles
Meet Your Marlborough Dentist
I didn’t choose dentistry because I loved teeth. I chose it because of what happens when someone finally loves their smile.
I am the only dentist at Innova Smiles. I provide general dental care for adults and children, as well as dental implants and Spark clear aligners. My implant fellowships (FICOI and FAAIP) are advanced continuing education.
I live next door in Southborough, and I practice in Marlborough. Innova Smiles is a member of the Marlborough Regional Chamber of Commerce and sponsors youth baseball and softball in Marlborough and Hudson: you will find us on the Marlborough Youth Baseball Association and Hudson Youth Baseball and Softball sponsor lists. More on our community page.

340 Maple St, Suite 100, Marlborough
In Marlborough Since 1965
Innova Smiles continues the dental practice that has been at 340 Maple St, Suite 100, Marlborough, since 1965. It was started by the late Dr. James Naumes (Community Advocate), and Dr. Daniel R. O’Brien, DMD, led it for 36 years before transitioning it to Dr. Ambereen Fatima in May 2025 (Patch). The clinical staff stayed on through the transition. Today, Dr. Fatima leads every appointment and serves the patients and MetroWest community that Dr. O’Brien cared for.
On April 8, 2026, the Marlborough Regional Chamber of Commerce hosted a ribbon cutting at the office, with Mayor J. Christian Dumais and members of the City Council (Community Advocate).
“I was with the same practice for 35 years. … I know now that Dr O'Brien made a fabulous choice when he sold the business to Dr. Fatima.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about insurance, first visits, or specific treatments, answered here.
Look for a dentist whose qualifications you can verify, clear treatment explanations and a written estimate before treatment. Dr. Ambereen Fatima is an NYU-trained general dentist and the only dentist at Innova Smiles. She treats adults and children. Her full biography lists her education and professional credentials.
Your first visit is a full evaluation. We verify your insurance at no cost before you arrive when you book and return your appointment forms at least three business days ahead; for sooner appointments we go over your coverage when you get here. Either way, bring your ID and insurance card and we handle the rest. Most first visits take about 60 to 90 minutes and include digital X-rays, a full exam, oral cancer screening, and a clear care plan.
During office hours, yes. Innova Smiles holds emergency slots every business day (Mon–Thu 9–5, Fri 9–1) for severe toothaches, broken teeth, lost crowns and abscesses: call (508) 481-0110 and the team will triage you and offer the first available slot. The office is closed on weekends and holidays. Outside office hours, our booking line takes calls 24/7 and can schedule you into the first available emergency slot.
