Our team

Calm people, who happen to be excellent dentists.

Every CanvasVital dentist and hygienist was hired for two equally important qualities: board-certified technical skill, and the kind of presence that lowers your heart rate.

The dentists

Six clinicians, one shared instinct for listening.

Founder
A word from the founder

I trained at Harvard. I learned the rest at a kitchen table.

My grandmother was terrified of dentists. She would not go until the pain became unbearable, and then quietly. I founded CanvasVital with one belief: a clinic should feel like a kitchen, not a surgery. Sit, talk, plan, then decide together.

Today our team is 14 people across six operatories. We do everything from porcelain veneers to full-arch implant restoration, but the rule stays the same: never an instrument before a hello.

What patients say about us

We are proud of this number more than any other.

9.4 / 10 NPS

Across 2,140 verified patient surveys collected quarterly. We publish the chart on the wall of every operatory. The full sheet is at the front desk.

490+ reviews

Across Google, Yelp and RateMDs. Average 4.9 stars across the three platforms. Read a curated thread on our patient-stories page.

72% referral rate

Seven in ten new patients arrive because someone they trust told them to. That is the metric we watch most closely and recover the slowest.

Meet us in person

Sit down with a dentist before you commit to anything.

The 75-minute first consult is a conversation, not a sales call. No instruments unless you say yes. If we are not the right fit, please say so.
