Ready for Their Close-ups
Local leaders in dentistry treat patients’ smiles as kindly as they would care for their own.
If the eyes are the window to the soul, the smile is the window into the mind and mood. As such, it should be treated with the care of a precious gem.
Lucky for us, the Philadelphia area is home to thousands of dentists and other dental health professionals. The challenge? Choosing the “right” dentist, one who you trust and also has the skill, expertise, and chairside manner to keep your pearly whites looking bright, feeling healthy, and operating at peak performance.
Over the past several months, we asked our readers to cast their votes for local leaders in dentistry, meaning the men and women they rely on when it comes to all aspects of dentistry. Our readers’ selections are outlined on the following pages, along with some “votes” of our own, based on stories we’ve done over the past year about dentists who have earned five-star reputations.
These professionals come from various disciplines—general and cosmetic dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and prosthodontics, among others. Regardless of their differences, all share at least one commonality: They are devoted to caring for patients’ smiles as tenderly as they would treat their own.
We present our Top Dentists, Class of 2021.
