Dr. Baker has been practicing on Long Island for over 20 years and continues to believe in the same principles that earned him his prestigious awards.

Dr. Baker believes in bringing the latest technology and innovations available in the practice of orthodontics to his patients, in order to make the treatment more comfortable and precise.

Dr. Baker enjoys the interactions with children and parents alike. It is an honor, he says, when the parents bring the younger siblings in of those he has treated.

Dr. Silvia M. Baker

Silvia M. Baker is not your typical "all business" dentist. Her incredible life story started in Cuba when she was only 8 years old where her family fled the communist dictatorship in search of freedom.

After spending a couple of her childhood years in Spain, she and her family made it to the United States when she was 10, where she began her very own American dream. Silvia went on to receive her undergraduate degree from NYU, and then earned her dental degree from Columbia University School of Dental and Oral Surgery.

Silvia's post-graduate training continued at Stony Brook University School of Dentistry where she was a Fellow at Dental Care for the Developmentally Disabled Program. Upon graduation, she was honored with being appointed to the position of Clinical Coordinator. She also became head of the Developmentally Disabled Dentistry Program at the Univeristy, and she was responsible for training the post-graduate doctors in the program, as well as dental students and residents.

During this time she maintained her privated practice, and also got married and had four wonderful children.

One of Silvia's favorite things about being a dentist is helping patients young, old, and everywhere inbetween overcome their dental fears. Hearing comments like "that was fun" or "you guys made me laugh and I didn't feel a thing!" are music to her ears.

Silvia loves to play with her kids, dance, sing, cook, and so much more. While Silvia takes her profession very serious, she also understands the need to comfort patients and ensure they enjoy their visit. She's full of life and can't wait to meet you at our office!
