Elizabeth Briceno

DMD, MS

Dr. Briceno is a board certified pediatric dentist with over 10 years of experience treating little patients. She has two kids and a passion for eliminating the fear and anxiety many children associate with visiting the dentist, which can often last a lifetime and lead to poor oral health as adults.

 

Dr. Briceno grew up in Miami, Florida and attended Nova Southeastern University School of Dentistry. She specialized in Pediatric Dentistry at University of Texas School of Dentistry in Houston and received her Masters in Science of Dentistry in 2012. In order to make Dentini a welcoming place for children of all ages, Dr. Briceno treats every child with the patience, kindness, and compassion that only a mother can provide.

Hillary Strassner
