Dr. Jared V. Rediske is from Eyota, Minnesota. He started his career as a dental assistant in the United States Air Force. He then received his Associate’s Degree in Dental Applied Sciences and became a certified dental assistant and certified orthodontic assistant. After the Air Force, he went on to finish his undergraduate requirements so that he could go on to dental school. He attended University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, graduating with his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2006. After graduation, Dr. Rediske moved to Vermont because Brattleboro, VT won his heart. Initially he worked as an associate in a group practice.  At the end of 2009 he purchased his own practice in Townshend Vermont. He closed the Townshend office February 2019 and merged the staff and patients to our second location in Brattleboro . Shortly after the merge we began renovations at a new location at 999 Putney Rd. On July 17th 2019 we made our final move to our current location at 999 Putney Road, Brattleboro, Vermont to better serve his patients who live in closer proximity.

Dr. Rediske is currently President of the board of the New England Dental Society. He’s served on the board of the AIDS Project of Southern Vermont, and he was president of the board for two years. In college Dr. Rediske was part of Delta Lambda Phi, a social fraternity of which he was president. He is one of the founders of the Brattleboro Study Club, as well as a member of the Seattle study club, the American Dental Association and Vermont State Dental Association. He’s the attending dentist for the Head Start and Early Head Start program for the Windham County area.

Dr. Rediske also founded the Well Baby Clinic, serving children between the ages of 1 and 3 years. During the 13 years since the program began, they’ve served over 800 children.

Dr. Rediske’s mother and two of his sisters live in South Eastern Minnesota close to where Dr. Rediske grew up and his 3rd sisters lives in Wisconsin. He’s been partnered for twelve years and has a 29-year-old step-daughter. He also has two full-size Doberman’s and one cat, and 2 salt water fish tanks fish tanks. He enjoys hiking, kayaking, down-hill skiing, squash, and golf, which he’s only recently discovered. He also enjoys cooking and playing with his 2 Doberman’s. On weekends in the summer he enjoys getting out his father’s 1957 Ford Thunderbird and going for long drives.

Dr. Rediske can remember wanting to be a dentist since he was 12, and his mother remembers him expressing this desire when he was five! He relates to Hermy the Elf from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer — he knew he wanted to be a dentist from a very early age. The beauty of being a general dentist is that you can pick and choose what you would like to focus on. Dr. Rediske especially loves working with kids and the surgical aspect of dentistry. Over the course of his career, he’s continued to expand his capabilities, and he’s excited to now be placing dental implants.

Meet Dr. Clare Ma

Dr. Clare Ma

Dr. Ma grew up around dentistry which solidified her wish to become a dentist as her father was a dentist so she saw first hand how much of an effect dentistry has on people’s quality of life and she decided early on she wanted to help people in that way.

She grew up in Andover, Massachusetts and obtained her B.S in Microbiology at the University of Rochester before moving to Philadelphia to attend Temple University Kronberg School of Dentistry where she graduated with honors. She also was one out of two students at Temple University who won the American Public Health Association’s (APHA) Anthony Westwater Jong Memorial Pre-professional Award for their project titled: “Childhood Obesity and Orthodontic Issues: Provider and Organizational Responsibilities in Addressing a Growing Public Health Epidemic.” After graduating from dental school, she realized quickly she would like to move to a more remote, tranquil area and settled in Keene, New Hampshire where she lives with her fiancé, Stephen, and her dog Rocket.

Patients are often impressed by her gentle spirit and her kind chair side manner and with her extensive experience in oral surgery and Invisalign, she complements the team of dentists at West River Family Dental very well.

In her free time she enjoys skiing, hiking, spending time with her fiancé and dog, traveling and trying new and different foods. 

Dr. Ma recently attended the class in dental implantology and will be offering implant services to patients soon. We are excited to have Dr. Ma to be part of our team and are excited to work with her to provide excellent dental care to all of our patients.
