Dr. Dana Chianese is one of many dentists in her family! She grew up in Toms River, New Jersey and loves serving patients in Philadelphia. Dr. Chianese is a Board Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry and is also a part of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the Pennsylvania Dental Association, and the Philadelphia County Dental Society.

She graduated from Villanova University and went on to attend the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. She later completed her general residency at Monmouth Medical Center and finished her Pediatric Dental Residency at Temple University Hospital. In both of her residency programs, she was distinguished as Chief Resident.

Dr. Chianese practices oral sedation, dentistry under general anesthesia, zirconia crowns, and frenectomy. When she’s not treating patients, she enjoys spending time with her husband and their two very active boys as they explore the city of Philadelphia together. She also loves to cook, travel, and exercise…with two boys she says it’s necessary for survival!

I’m a third-generation dentist in my family so I’ve known that I wanted to be a dentist since I was 5 years old and kids just make dentistry even more fun! Every day in pediatrics is an adventure and it’s so rewarding to shape the dental experiences of my little friends.
