It takes more than technical skills to be a good childrens dentist. It takes compassion and commitment and Dr. Maria has those traits in abundance. While making you and your child comfortable in a safe and positive environment, she will set your child on the right path to good dental health.

She earned her pediatric specialty certification as Chief Resident from the highly competitive program of Staten Island University Hospital in New York. During her years of private practice in New York she remained on hospital staff as a Clinical Professor of Dentistry where she taught dental students and pediatric dental residents. She holds distinguished memberships in numerous professional organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, American Dental Association and the Florida Dental Association.

Claudia was a fantastic hygienist for our toddler. She's enthusiastic, fast, and very skilled. Claudia is really great with young children and has a great way of navigating what I'm sure is a very difficult job. The office on the whole was great as well. Friendly, fast help in the front office, no wait, very clean and inviting. We're very happy this office was recommended to us by our dentist.

What a breath of fresh air this practice is! We came here for a third opinion after being told by two other pediatric dentists that our 2 1/2 year old son needed sedation dentistry to correct dental caries. The entire dental team at this office needs be commended for their compassion, humor, patience, and overall willingness to make children and parents/guardians comfortable in the face of stressful situations. The office itself is extremely well kept and clean. Nothing was out of place. They use behavioral techniques that are effective and do not rush to recommend sedation. We now have a treatment plan that does not involve sedation and are truly grateful to God for this office, the doctor, and its staff. I highly recommend!

The office staff is friendly, the atmosphere is amazing and all questions and concerns are always taken care of. You feel like family when you walk in. My kids love going to the see Dr. Maria and are always all smiles. Highly recommend!

Dr. Maria took us in immediately for an emergency after my two year old fell on his two front teeth. The staff could not have been nicer or more accommodating! They made him feel so relaxed, it was the first time he stopped crying since the accident. Truly wonderful team, they have patients for life now!!!
