Dental Care of Stamford
Serving Greenwich, Stamford, New Canaan, and Darien, Connecticut, as well as Westchester County, New York, Dental Care of Stamford prides itself on its special pediatric dentistry facility, Dental Care Kids. Dental Care of Stamford has even established a comprehensive educational website dedicated solely to Dental Care Kids. Dental Care of Stamford’s dedicated team of pediatric specialists provides consultation and treatment in general pediatric dentistry as well as orthodontia at Dental Care Kids. Drs. Dana Knapp, Jessica Levy, John Park, and Maria Velasco focus their practice on prevention by combining a positive early treatment experience with age-appropriate education in hygiene, diet, and lifestyle.
Dr. Knapp and Dr. Velasco of Dental Care of Stamford are both alumni of the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. Dr. Velasco has the distinction of two degrees: a Master of Education and a Doctor of Medical Dentistry. Dr. Levy brings a background in child psychology to Dental Care of Stamford’s Dental Care Kids, having studied at New York University prior to completing her degree in dentistry at the SUNY Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. She subsequently conducted her general practice residency at Westchester Medical Center.
A native of Vancouver, Canada, Dr. John Park pursued a post-graduate pediatric specialty at Stony Brook University in New York after graduating from The University of British Columbia with his DMD credential. These professionals anchor Dental Care Kids’ general pediatric dentistry practice and have welcomed each patient with the understanding that children who do not learn to fear the dentist have a greater likelihood of managing their oral health well in the future.
In addition to general pediatric dentistry, Dental Care Kids is home to three orthodontists: Steve Sher, DMD, Peter Friebish, DDS, and Hong Yin, DDS. Dr. Scher has been practicing at Dental Care of Stamford for nearly 20 years, and he is among the 25% of orthodontic specialists certified by the prestigious American Board of Orthodontics. A native of China, Dr. Yin grew up in the Midwest. Graduating with honors from Cornell University, she completed her dental medicine requirements and Master’s degree in Orthodontics at Columbia University. In keeping with Dental Care of Stamford’s high standards, Dental Care Kids offers the newest orthodontic treatment options, including tip-edge, straight wire, Damon, and Invisalign braces.
With an understanding of the fear so many people feel when entering a dentist’s office, Dental Care of Stamford and Dental Care Kids have designed a patient experience that not only treats, but also entertains, educates, and encourages individuals of all ages in a welcoming and compassionate manner.
