Jared M. Harris, DMD

Dr. Harris has been in dentistry for his entire life. Growing up with a dentist for a father, it was an easy choice going into this profession. He spent many of his younger years in his father’s office, always interacting with patients; it all came so naturally. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh, Dr. Harris went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from The Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry just as his father did. Graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors recognition and induction into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honors Society are just a couple of the accolades he was awarded.

Dr. Harris was also recognized by the Delaware Valley Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons for Clinical Excellence in Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology. He is passionate about cosmetic dentistry and helping people recapture the smile they knew and used to love. He spends his time really getting to know his patients and loves establishing long lasting relationships. Going to the dentist should be enjoyable and Dr. Harris strives to ensure it is. You can count on him to always be up to date with the latest technology available in dentistry.

Outside of the Office

When Dr. Harris is not in the office, he enjoys spending time with his family. He is an avid golfer and always looking to get a round in on the weekend. In the winter you can find him on the slopes, snowboarding with his friends.

Jeffrey S. Harris, DMD

Dr. Harris is a veteran in the dental community. Having owned and operated one of the most sought after family and cosmetic dental practices in Chester County, PA for over 35 years, he was a favorite amongst his patients. Not only did his patients love him, but his students did too! His passion for teaching led him back to his alma mater, The Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry, where he was an associate clinical professor for about 10 years. In 2019 Dr. Harris was forced into an early retirement, after suffering from a degenerative eye condition that left him unable to practice dentistry further. He always had the dream of being in practice one day with his son and this dream has become a reality. He is so excited to be able to mentor and work alongside his son Dr. Jared Harris, helping to manage the office and provide collegial input into treatment planning decisions.

Outside of the office

When he is not in the office, he enjoys spending time with his lovely wife Michele and the rest of his family. He is a big Philadelphia sports fan, especially the Flyers!

Awards

Years ago, when Jeffrey S. Harris, D.M.D., operated a dental practice in Kennett Square, his young son Jared would often accompany him—observing, asking questions, filling his curious mind with lessons about everything from the anatomy of the human mouth to the importance of treating others with respect. Dr. Jeffrey remembers grinning with a combination of delight and paternal pride at his son’s precociousness and desire for learning.

“Even when he was a boy, Jared could take apart anything and put it back together,” Dr. Jeffrey recalls. “And that’s what dentistry is: taking what Mother Nature gave you, drilling it apart, getting rid of the bad stuff, and then restoring it.”
