About Us
Get to know the dentists behind Havertown Dental Arts, three clinicians who bring advanced training and genuine care to every visit.
Choosing a dentist is a personal decision. You're trusting someone with your comfort, your family's health, and often with years of history you'd rather not repeat if the fit isn't right. At Havertown Dental Arts, our clinicians built this practice around that trust, combining careful clinical training with a genuinely patient attitude toward every person who sits in the chair.
Our dentists work from the same office at 810 Darby Rd, following shared standards for diagnosis, sterilization, and treatment planning, so whichever clinician you see, you're getting the same thoughtful level of care. We believe dentistry works best when patients understand exactly what's happening in their mouths and why a given treatment is recommended, not when they're handed a plan with no explanation.
Below, you'll find background on our clinical team, the values guiding how we practice, and answers to the questions new and returning patients ask most often. If you'd rather talk to us directly, our front desk is happy to answer questions about scheduling or which dentist best fits your needs.
Every dentist on our team shares the same approach to patient care, built on three commitments we hold ourselves to on every visit.
Our dentists complete continuing education hours well beyond state requirements each year, staying current on techniques in restorative dentistry, periodontal care, and digital imaging.
We explain findings in plain language, walk through treatment options with real costs and timelines, and never recommend a procedure we wouldn't suggest for our own family.
From gentle numbing techniques to a calm, unhurried pace, our dentists pay close attention to anxious patients and adjust their approach so visits feel manageable, not stressful.
Our dentists treat patients across every stage of life, from a child's first cleaning to complex restorative work for adults who have put off treatment for years. That breadth means we've seen just about every situation a patient might walk in with, and we don't rattle easily at a difficult case or a nervous first-time visitor.
Each dentist at Havertown Dental Arts maintains their own license and clinical judgment, but we coordinate closely as a team on diagnostics, case reviews, and treatment planning. If your situation calls for a second opinion within our own office, or a referral to a trusted specialist, we'll tell you plainly rather than push forward with something outside our comfort zone.
What patients tell us they appreciate most is being heard. We ask about your goals before we ask about your teeth, whether that's getting through a cleaning without anxiety, fixing a chipped tooth before a wedding, or finally addressing a problem you've been avoiding.

"We'd rather spend five extra minutes explaining a diagnosis than have a patient leave confused or worried. That conversation builds the trust this whole practice is built on."

When you schedule online or by phone, our front desk team will confirm which dentist is available for your preferred date and time. If you have seen a particular clinician before or want to request someone specific, just let us know when booking, and we will do our best to accommodate that preference based on the office schedule.
Yes. Our clinical team sees patients across a wide age range, including children, teenagers, and adults. We take extra time with younger patients to help them feel comfortable in the chair, explaining each step before it happens so first visits go smoothly and future appointments feel less intimidating.
Your first appointment typically includes a full exam, digital X-rays if needed, and a conversation about your dental history and any concerns you have. The dentist will review findings with you in plain terms, outline any recommended treatment, and answer questions before anything is scheduled. There is no pressure to commit to extensive work on day one.
Dental anxiety is common, and our team is used to working with patients who feel nervous about visits. We take a slower, more communicative approach for these patients, explaining each step beforehand, checking in during treatment, and adjusting pace as needed. Let your dentist or our front desk know ahead of time so we can plan accordingly.
Our dentists all provide core general dentistry, including exams, cleanings, fillings, and preventive care. For more specialized treatment, we coordinate internally to match you with the clinician best suited to the case, and if a procedure falls outside what our office offers, we will refer you to a trusted outside specialist and explain why.
For most patients, we recommend a checkup and cleaning every six months. If you have gum disease, a history of frequent cavities, or other risk factors, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits to keep issues from developing between appointments. This schedule is always adjusted to your specific oral health needs.
We work with a range of major dental insurance providers, including MetLife, Delta Dental, Cigna, Aetna, and United Healthcare. For details specific to your plan, visit our Dental Insurance page or call our office directly, and our team will help verify your benefits before your visit.
You can book online anytime through our scheduling page, or call our office at (610) 486-5590 during business hours, and our front desk will find a time that works for you. New patients can also check our New Patients page for what to bring and what to expect before your visit.
