In the practice 

In our office, we love nature and work hard to maintain a healthy environment. That is why our offices were built with eco–friendly materials and we are proud to be totally paperless. Our team is a wonderful group of people who are very personal and genuine, and always go the extra mile to make patients feel comfortable and appreciated in our office. 

Family life 

I have been in NY for over 20 yrs and truly love this city! My husband, Rodolfo, children Diego and Daniella, and our Bichon Frise “Buddy” are always finding new things to do outside. We especially love to bike, run, rollerblade and sail! We love living life to the fullest!

In the practice 

Prosthodontics is a way to provide people with the smile they have been missing out on. Working with so many unique people has helped me approach all people as individuals with their own goals and dreams. I love getting to know our patients and discovering what makes them special! 

We try to create a comfortable environment with a very personal approach to each patient’s needs and concerns. Our highest priority is making you feel at ease while providing quality dental care with a gentle touch. We also work hard to protect our environment! Our office was built with environmentally friendly materials to provide a soothing feeling for anyone who enters. 

Family life 

My wife and I have been living in this wonderful city for the past 20 years, and have raised our children here. In our spare time, we love to do active things with our kids. I especially love to sail, and was a part of a sailing team in Rochester!
