Dr. Steve Sheffield has been the proud owner of LaFayette Dental Associates since 2011. He and his team enjoy treating patients of all ages and from all walks of life. They love their community and are pleased to provide dental care to patients across LaFayette, Tully, Homer, Fabius, Pompey, Jamesville, Syracuse, and beyond.
I received my bachelor's degree in Exercise Science from Brigham Young University in 2004, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude. I then returned to my home state of Minnesota to attend dental school at the University of Minnesota, graduating in 2008.
After dental school, my family and I moved to Syracuse to complete a one-year residency in General Dentistry at SUNY Upstate Medical University. During my residency, I received more extensive training in oral surgery, endodontics (root canals), and periodontics (treating gum disease). After working in a group dental practice in the Binghamton area, my family and I moved back to the Syracuse area, taking over LaFayette Dental Associates in December 2011.
Erin has been a part of Lafayette Dental Associates since 2021. She has enjoyed working as a hygienist for over 10 years creating healthy smiles and building lasting relationships. Outside of work, Erin enjoys spending time with family and friends, getting creative with photography and cooking and spending as much time outside as possible.
I have been going here since 1976, Since Dr. Sheffield has taken over the practice from Dr. Baum, I have seen the latest improvements from a dedicated professional and supportive staff! With this expertise in CNY, I plan on seeing Dr. Sheffield and staff for another 42 years! Also had the kor whitening, Highly recommend it.
