About Pamela Casperino, DMD
Dr. Casperino wanted to be dentist since grade school. Her child hood dentist was frightening and would threaten to use gas on her if she didn’t sit still and be quiet. She remembers on the way home, after those visits, how unnecessary it was for him to treat her in such a fashion. At that point Dr. Casperino decided that she wanted to become a dentist and treat people with care and understanding their fears. In addition, Dr. Casperino has always enjoyed all forms of artistic creativity and has been able to implement them into her dental skills. Dr. Casperino feels the first feature people notice about you is your smile, making it a very important aspect of your appearance.
