A Specialist You Can Trust
Dr. Ryan Baker is board-certified by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry and holds three advanced degrees — including a Master of Science in Pediatric Dentistry from Loma Linda University. He was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon dental honor society, reserved for the top 10% of graduates and one of the highest honors in the profession. This level of expertise ensures your child receives the highest standard of care from a true pediatric dentist specialist.
What Sets Our Pediatric Dentistry Practice Apart
Dr. Baker combines clinical expertise with a genuine focus on prevention — teaching your child (and you) the tools to fight tooth decay before it starts.

We treat our young patients with respect and patience, creating an environment where they feel heard and cared for.
